    yep you're right, it's a Campervan, I love it, it's fantastic, when they were thinking to buy I said, it doesn't mean you have to sleep in it, you can still stay in hotels and bnb's but when you go away with your U3A friends, instead of eating your sarnies in the car you can eat them at a table and make a cup of tea in your campervan, they love it and they sleep in it, not bad at just short of 80 yrs old

    what do you have ?

    Milan.

    They've had loads of fun, been everywhere, build a bear, motor gokarting, gran and grampy have got a shiny new VW California and my daughters love it and they've been off down to the south coast for a few days, infact, during the whole stay they slept every night in the VW, even parked on the drive outside the house !

    It's a shame my mrs isn't into motorhomes, if she was I'd buy one tomorrow, I think they're great, and the California you can drive it and park it like a car

    Anybody here got a motorhome ?

    And Chepstow's not that smart an idea, since there will be even more traffic on the bridge (the old one, remember...) and you still get jammed around the M5/M32 interchanges. Far smarter to move south of the city.
    actually a little secret is Weston, you can buy townhouses there for pennies on the pound, a friend wants to move from Stoke Bishop to Weston

    Chew valley is nice

    The wye valley though, is beautiful

    and of course the Severn
