Thank you for accepting me onto this forum at caravan talk. I have just bought an Avondale Dart 556-6 after looking at second hand caravans accross the the north west ans it seems like a nice dry well looked after example and whilst it's not a modern palace I it seems sound and we are ready for our first caravan holiday.

How about a thread that brings everyone`s tips about keeping the costs of caravaning down (practical) all to the same place. for instance. .............. how much stuff do you take with you that you never use ? non essential. my wife once took seven pairs of boots for a seven night stay and only used 2 pairs. now we`re on gas i still take the toaster because we`re on ehu. always check tyre pressures the night before.(van and car) on a short trip (weekend) if it looks windy i don`t take the awning. just a few to start off.

Also Are the fold away ironing boards any use of is it worth taking a real one? And Expensive or cheap camping chair? is it worth it? Thanks
