For all photos, click HERE Poland has always been on our to-do list, but we’ve never yet ventured there in the van, and due to Eastern European aspect being unknown, we’ve been a little bit wary. So for a change, we opted for a week away flying to Warsaw, then…
In our NV200 we fitted an electric dump valve so that we can empty the grey waste from inside the van – no more getting wet when its raining or having to bend down to turn the tap on or off. Simply flick a switch and bye bye water. “Proper”…
Well, as people still go on at us thinking we’re never going away (!) – we never normally mention mini UK trips which the NV200 is perfect for. To quieten the naysayers – here is a “typical” mini trip for us! The NV, as ever, was perfect. Small enough; big…

TPMS is Tyre Pressure Management System – and it is a system that monitors your tyres. Last week, the wife was driving the car that is equipped with TPMS, and for the first time ever the alarm went off. She called me (hands free!) and I said it could be…
