Wow! You’ve had a lot of caravans and you’ve been very adventurous with your travels too. Enjoyable vlogs. Best wishes, Helen & Dave 👍
We originally started caravanning with Sue’s parents in 1984. It seemed like a good way for us to work hard and get away at weekends. However like now, there was often a reason for us not being able to travel. We have always been busy doing something 😃👍🏻💙 Trev & Sue
Great pics. 10 caravans, wow. We loved our Scirocco.
We had the Superstorm but Nick’s Scirocco washroom was far superior to ours. We enjoyed all the caravans and never got a dud. Lucky really 🙂👍🏻🚐 Trev
Hello Trev and Sue, loved your first caravan it was cute. Wow 10 caravans, loved your Swift Bolero, that was funny about the Bakewell tart, it is a little tight for parking around there. Love your present IH van, glad you are still enjoying your travels, really interesting listening , see you soon x Julie and Tony x
Thanks both, it’s been interesting for us to look back all those years. See you in June 🚐😃👍🏻 Trev n Sue
You have had a nice collection of van, we have only had 2, but we love what we have now, so I can't see a change in the near future. Great video, ATB Mark & Coral
Thanks Mark and Coral, we are looking forward to seeing you in the summer. Safe travels 😃👍🏻💙 Trev n Sue
Great video Trevor and Sue. We started in 1981 but in that time we have only had 4 caravans and 1 motorhome, somewhat fewer than you and Sue! You had some cracking vans.
Thank you, we have enjoyed our caravanning experience over the years and found some very comfortable layouts. In 2017 we knew it was time to go to the dark side and try something new. No regrets and we are still getting that feeling of excitement at the beginning of each trip 😃👍🏻🚐 Trev n Sue
Absolutely brilliant Trev and Sue.
So many vans and what a wonderful host of memories.
Was that an early 90’s Ford Sierra Trev?
So much experience that you’ve given all of us.
Totally understand about parking after our six months. So far we’ve coped with hiking and buses 😃
Absolutely fascinating stuff!!
Thanks for your support and comments. Yes, Ford Mondeo, we really enjoyed that car until we got the 4x4 and included more winter camping 😃👍🏻🚐 Trev
Great video! This brings echoes of parents journey through leisure vehicles and they swapped often just like you for changing needs, demands and my dad could not resist the latest! A ‘trip’ for a day out to the caravan dealer often never was just window shopping. They too started in 1984 with a Sprite Aerial (dinky little thing) before a series of Elddis (Shamal, Shamal XL and Tornado from memory). Before they tried Coachman and a spattering of Swift. This has brought back so many happy memories so thank you for sharing your story! Andy & Jamie :😊
Sue’s parents started in the 70s and had a series of vans that included the local Suffolk manufacturer Fleetwood and also a very early Adria. Sue’s dad had the only European van on the rally field and it had blue tints on the windows, no one knew why 😃 Thanks for sharing your thoughts and memories. There’s an amazing amount of change in the last 50 years in the caravan industry 👍🏻🙂 Trev
That was interesting looking back at all your caravans I started with a Dandy trailer tent 🤣 Thanks as always for sharing another interesting video.
Thanks Sylvia. We had a few tents and a trailer tent but not enough time in this video to go into them. We preferred to have a firm roof over our heads at night 😃👍🏻🚐 💙 Trev
Interesting to see how your campers progressed. Bet the first motor home seemed like a mansion compared to the first travel trailer. I enjoyed the video, my friends 👍👏💕😊🤗🙏
Yes we have had some lovely leisure vehicles and all of them have special memories. The motorhomes have surprised us by how spontaneous we can be by getting packed up and on the road within the hour and going to new locations on a daily basis with all our belongings and a little bungalow on wheels 🚐😃👍🏻 Trev
You had Bertie when I started following you. Love the Freelander reg Sue’s Tops 😁👍 My mug giving sterling service it’s my school mug 😁👍
Thanks Colin. Yes we dusted off the photo albums in search of a few pictures but sadly there were not many. Not like modern times when we photograph everything including our dinner 😂😂 Trev
some great vans trev and sue but we find its our first we think about the most the freedom it gave for not a lot off money taking the children away adventures great vid hope you both well all the best donny
Yes, you are really enjoying your van and that’s what it’s all about. Making memories was the most important thing for us too 👍🏻😃🚐💙 Trev
Well done for making the collaboration video. Quite a history of caravans there! They closed that big car park in Bakewell to motorhomes too!
No more Bakewell Pudding for Sue then 😂 Thanks Bob n Jenny 😃👍🏻 Trev
Hi Trev and Sue a brilliant video and quite a history of caravans there I remember sone of them loved the Abbeys always such luxurious vans and a neighbour had the abbey Stafford about the age as your Suffolk and I remember the GTS and the sprites and the swifts were great vans it sounds like you both have so many happy memories of them all and your years on the road
I grew up with mom and dad having statics but they did similar and upgraded to get benefits of more modern technology and amenities and to secure a layout which better suited needs at the time I think that it’s that change which makes you to want to change be it cars caravans houses etc
You have also had some lovely motorhomes and happy memories in both of them which you share with us all I agree with you about Bakewell every time we try we have never been able to park 😂 hope you are both well and glad to hear rally went well all the best Daniel
Thanks so much Daniel, we do have a lot of wonderful memories. When we started caravanning, we would go out and about with Sue’s parents who had their own caravan from the late 1970s. Often just local campsites or rallys. But it was always fun and it got us away from both working long hours, even when the children were young we tried to keep caravanning but we were forced to take a couple of short breaks when Laura arrived in 1987 and then again when we moved here purely because our mortgage was taking everything we had at the time. The years have flown by, which is why we want to continue with our travels and explore as much as we can while we can. 😃 Thank you for your lovely comments 👍🏻💙 Trev n Sue
Hi Trev and Sue Your right about picking the wrong layout being expensive we made that mistake with our first Motorhome . It was interesting to see how the layouts haven’t really changed that much over the years
No real breakthroughs but materials used have improved significantly making vans lighter and better insulated. In some cases the newer models seem flimsy though imho. 😃🚐 Trev
@@PoshcatsCamping yeah your right some of the materials are really flimsy
Did not finish my comment! Great video and Smurf is super.
Thank you ☺️ we love our Smirf. He is taking us to some wonderful new places 🚐👍🏻😃 Trev
I love seeing all the old pics. This is such a neat collab. We wouldn't be able to do it. We've only ever had the one LOL. I really love the vintage campers. Always seems a shame when the kids get too old to want to hang out with mom and dad. I really enjoyed seeing all your past camping mobiles.
Thank you, we tried to do lots of different things with the children but caravanning was our “go to” as Sue’s mum and dad had their own caravan from the late 1970s. We would follow them around and stay with them on local campgrounds and rallys. 😃👍🏻💙 Trev
Hi Trev and Sue! Loved hearing about all your past caravans and motorhomes. What a collection. Thanks for sharing. 😊😊
Thanks Angela, hope you and your family are well 😃👍🏻 Trev n Sue
Enjoyed that. It’s nice to see all the different layouts. Take care Gill
Thanks Gill, it’s been a long caravanning time since we started. Sue’s father also had a whole range of different vans and brands. I like browsing through his photos from the past 😃👍🏻 Trev
Very nice video ❤️ 👍
Thank you ☺️ Trev n Sue 💙
Loved all your pictures of all your old cars and caravans,
Thank you, there are a few more cars on my list. Some of my favourites were the ones Sue hated 😉😂 Trev
great vlog
Thank you Mark, hope you are well 😃👍🏻🚐 Trev
@@PoshcatsCamping i well as can beloving your vlogs
You could probably write a book about caravans as you have had so many 😊
We have a lot of tales to tell. We had caravans for 33 years and experienced a lot of ups and downs 😂 Thanks for your comments 👍🏻😃🚐 Trev n Sue
@@PoshcatsCamping Start writing 😀
We're possibly changing our tag axle motorhome and going to our 1st caravan (simply because we'd like a big car for when we're home) good to see all your past vehicles but i have to ask would you go back to a caravan?
Good to see you both xx
Thank you ☺️ I don’t think we would go back to a caravan as we did it for 33 years and felt we had done everything we wanted to. The van conversion is very spontaneous and we can go from place to place very easily with all our belongings with us. That seems to be what we are enjoying most at the moment 😃🚐 Safe travels in whatever you decide to do. There’s no right or wrong, just different 👍🏻💙 Trev
Wow a lot of caravans, aww shame about the cigarette smoke smell that must’ve been annoying 😢 Has Sue been back in Smurf to get that Bakewell pudding yet? 🤭 Enjoyed hearing your story. Em 💜
Haha no we have not been back to Bakewell since then. I think we will take Ethel next time and we would like to go back to Lickpenny Caravan Park as we really enjoyed it there 😃👍🏻💙 Trev
Lindsay's sister made a habit of announcing pregnancies in our van. Perhaps it is because we were always away in it. 🤣🤣 Nothing has changed then.
The only time I saw Sue was in the van. We were both working all the rest of the time 😂👍🏻 Trev
Didn't you have a lot of caravans, I think it's time to change to your next Motorhome. It tickled me that our first caravan cost us less than your first van cost, 26 years earlier.
We were always out in the vans with Sue’s parents and they helped us keep the kids busy so it was a win win 😃 See you soon Glyn 👍🏻😃💙 Trev n Sue
You have had a nice collection of van, we have only had 2, but we love what we have now, so I can't see a change in the near future. Great video, ATB Mark & Coral
Thanks Mark and Coral, we are looking forward to seeing you in the summer. Safe travels 😃👍🏻💙 Trev n Sue
