“The bell thing what ever that does” that was funny

Have good holiday Martin. Like the dog's Bollocks tap fitting must get one thanks for sharing 👍

Our Bailey is a bit nose heavy, but then we have a fecking sideboard in front of ours lol. Enjoy your trip. ATB Mark

I have been caravanning for 22yrs and never checked my caravan wheel torques but 4yrs ago I had a wheel come off which wrote off the caravan and I was only doing 20 mph. I was heading to the lakes and was only 10 minutes from a motorway and dread to think what would have happened if I had been on it. I now check my caravan wheel torques every time I leave my drive & leave a site. It may be overkill but only takes a few minutes.

Have great holiday 👍😁

😂the dogs nuts

Hi Martin, Yes the nose weight, our front chest of drawers adds nearly 14kg ! And I don’t know what I’m going to do when the Calorlite runs out as we don’t have a safefill stockist close by. Our main gas use is for shower water heating together with electric for quicker heat up time. It looks like you’re looking forward to the getaway 😀…. Best regards to you both, Rob & Gail 👍

We are living in our UK Swift Caravan travelling around the South Island, NZ. When we first left we weighed 1994kg, after 3 months on the road we went home for a couple of weeks, had a good clear out and lost just over 100kg, wish I could do the same as quick 😂 you really do carry a lot of stuff that you just don’t need… 👍

Great vlog I like having a nosey around other caravans. Enjoy your holidays. Hopefully see you soon xx

I watched in horror as our friends car was being thrown around by the caravan during a major snake on the motorway before the caravan eventually turned over. It certainly brought home to me how important the nose weight and loading the car and caravan correctly really is. After that incident I always ensured that the car was as heavy as possible and put as much weight as I could in the rear footwells and seats. The lighter things like tables and chairs were put in the boot. Anything that had to go in the caravan was placed over the axle and moved slightly forward or backward to get as near as possible to the correct. nose weight. The incident taught me haw powerful the caravan was while snaking and the heavier the caravan the worse the snake will be..

never thought of not enough weight, id say thats my problem sive ive removed cooker and fridge

Me & my wife are doing exactly the same as you where not taking as much stuff with us since kids stopped coming. I have even stopped taking the awning & it's an absolute doddle to set & I'm really enjoying caravannig again. Keep the videos coming

Great vlog Martin a good reminder for the newbies things to check

Hi Martin. I just spat my dinner everywhere...... Dogs Bollocks 🤣 I was not expecting that 😆 great video. Have a great holiday the both of you 😀 Paul and Sarah 👋

Hi Martin, hope you're ok..great video. That tap connector looks heavy duty👍. Someone's already told me where you off to🤣. Have a great time 👍

Fantastic blog came back from Cornwall last month and check my torque settings on alloys 4 nuts needed tightening after a 2 weeks holiday a week later after we arrived back home, milage was about 750 miles but I definitely agree with you that the nose weight in our elegance 580 elegance is a nightmare trying to get it right

Great vlog martin nice to see your back keep an eye on the tap fitting other wise mr addy will have it.

That Grifema gizmo looks the biz..........might have to get one.

Loved the vlog. 😂 We're just back from our summer trip. Had big porcg awning. Awning annexe, table, chairs, loads of other crap. I thoight we were flitting! Loving your (less is more) approach. Q - How has taking less stuff affected your holiday? Better, same or worse? Thank you, have a fab trip!

Haha I don't say you don't need to do it, just don't obsess. I do it if I haven't used it. What I mean is, you don't need a schedule. It's just peace of mind... I like that tap!

Hi Martin, I see that you use Tyre pal ! Can you tell me if you had specific valves to enable using Tyre pal or do you just need the sensor valve caps? The reason I ask, is that when we changed our caravan last year, the dealer said we couldn't transfer the Tyre pal to our new van as they were special valves fitted in the Tyre!

is your caravan nose heavy Martin as ours have 6k bottle spare tyre. usually tools in front boot and still have trouble just to get weight up to 85kg on tow hitch

how do you check tyre pressure on tyre pal we have tyre pal but don't know how to do it usually wait until we are setting off and it usually comes to life about 3mins down road

Do you tourqe your car wheels every trip,😅😅

Have you been able to give up the lorry driving yet?

hi Martin are you off abroad this year or are you staying local, i think the price of ferries this year is a bit of a rip off which is a shame as it use to be quite cheap to to to France with the Caravan

What, no beer?
