Nice to see all of you again.

If I get back from France, hope we can meet up again.

Possibly back by second week of December.

Regards and be lucky.

Have a good trip to France.....

Stan .... how was the beer fest?

Stan - 04 Sep 2010 22:25 - 1378 of 1427

It was most excellent as usual, we will have to make a date in our diary for next year.

Yeep, will find a motor caravan to come to next years beer fest in. So far have found this one within my price range:

& instead of solar panels on it then I'll go for a solar light bulb:

& if my present share holdings become hundred baggers then I'll upgrade to a motor caravan with car included:

Our correspondent, Mike Cazalet says that whilst the accident rate for foreign registered caravans and motor caravans in France has traditionally been so low as to not show in any statistics, the French police have been worried about the number of caravans in particular whose tyre speed and loading ratings weren't sufficiently high enough for the legal 130 kph (81 mph) of France's motorways.

Fred1new - 09 Sep 2010 09:44 - 1381 of 1427

Survive,

One of the problems with many caravans or "holiday" vehicles is that get laid up for long periods, which causes "rot" in their tyres and "burst", when they return to the road.

A front wheel burst at speed on one with high centre of gravity and high weight is difficult to control.

As far as flying with Ryanair is concerned, I always carry two St Christopher's, so I am O.K.
