What a great Scottish tour you both have had. Fascinating places to see and well run campsites. The colours in the glens were just fantastic - obviously a wonderful time to visit Scotland. As a newby to motorhome life and just getting used to a larger vehicle, your out and about attitude is helping us find our feet.

I absolutely love your videos. I discovered you by happenstance from one of the other RVers I follow. I’ve been binge watching since then and of course subscribed. I can’t wait to get back on the road again here in the US north Georgia mountains as my home base. After a 15 month long battle with cancer, radiation, chemo twice and 4 surgeries my prognosis is good and I’m on the road to recovery. As soon as I’m able to RV again I’ll be out and about. It’s videos like yours and Jenny’s that kept me entertained when quarantined which is going on for 9 months and counting. Wesley the Westie and Jezebel the Scotty love to see Poppy on tv. They bark and carry on like she’s in the room with them. Keep up the great work and we all can’t wait to see you next adventure.

Hello Bob and Jenny another cracking video and sorry but I have to say it, I just love your interpretation of Scottich place names, they certainly bring a smile. You are now in our local area and I do hope you enjoy it, had I known I would have been more than happy to show you guys around as there is so much to see, much of which is not in the tourist leaflets. Any way have a great time and enjoy.

Yet another enjoyable video and yes your right it's been very hard times this year, I don't think any of us could've predicted back in March we'd still be enduring lockdowns and restrictions. Today should've been my daughters wedding day but has been postponed to next May, gutted as its been a beautifully perfect autumnal day here in Wales today, there we are it is what it is. Thank you so much for your channel we really do enjoy and appreciate You, Jenny and little Pops as we've come to call here 😍. Stay safe and we'll look forward to seeing more of your journeys soon xx

Can I ask do you drink the water out of your fresh water tank? Still in researching mode for our first Motorhome and a site I visited thought I was mad for asking! Mixed responses 😂 it seems odd to have fresh water then have to carry more for a cup of tea! Love the videos thanks for all the practical advice.

@chrissey663 3 жыл бұрын

Hi we always drink straight from our tank, I don't believe in carrying drinking water separate seams silly plus more weight, nothing wrong with tank water just clean your tank about 2-3 times a year, happy camping chrissey

Hi Bob, don’t put the kettle on just yet , help again please,I have fitted 100 wt solar into charger and connected to engine battery to help during winter. Question is Bob can I just drive MH with it connected as the alternator will be supplying charge while the engine is running,or do I have to disconnect from the solar. Thanks Penguin peter 🐧🐧

@BobEarnshawMoHo 3 жыл бұрын

I assume you have connected it via a solar controller and the motorhome management system? If so, yes you should be fine to drive it. You must not connect a solar panel direct to the battery, you could do some serious damage.

If I were you, I'd talk to one of the mobile companies, you may need a mobile signal aerial and mobile router on a contract rather than buying a mobile router.
