Virgin trip

I don't know if anyone mentioned a mini spirit level and some small wooden ramps to level the caravan.

Pillows, bedding, towels, tea bags, Crocs (essential caravan wear 😂) wet-weather gear (and warm clothes) kettle, pans. These are just a few of the items we have forgotten in the past! Enjoy your trip 👍

Anyone mentioned clothes pegs?! They seem to come in handy for various things. 

Enjoy Grantown, it's a good base for the Cairngorms National Park.

If you have a auto engage motor mover fitted, don't forget the remote.

Don't forget the remote for any type of motor mover, remember to disengage the mover before starting to tow, and don't leave the remote on the ground when moving off.😄

Hi DSB,

Well we're here.  We had two stops on the way (from home to here is about 28 miles).  First one was about a mile from home as we got a trailer indicator according to the car dashboard after that time.  The indicator was working but we wonder if maybe one bulb has gone.  

The second one was to check that we had removed the isolation key on the motormover.  (We had.)

Things we wish we'd brought but didn't were spare food bags for items we hadn't finished eating.  We did have some tupperware dishes but food bags would have been useful and the ohter one was clips to hold crisp bags shut after opening them.  Minor in the big scale of things.

We had a slight problem with the hose pipe coming off the aqua roller which happened when we were out. Our neighbour turned the water off and we sorted it when we got back.

Grantown on Spey camp site was very welcoming. The warden took us to our pitch, checked we were happy with the electrics etc (we'd explained this was our maiden voyage).  The site is very clean and quiet.   The toilet/shower block is immaculate and there is good space between all the pitches. 

All in all we feel we have had a successful first trip and looking forward to our next one.

As if anyone would ..... 🙄🙄

I confirmed on Wed that not even 265bhp will move a twin axle with both movers engaged .... 🤣🤣

I assume you were on a serviced pitch? 
I always turn the tap off on a serviced pitch when going off site, having had a hose come off previously, fortunately I was on site at the time.
