Be interested in taking a trip like this next year with our dog, curious as to how you found the whole EHC process and how your dealing with the vet appointment before you come back to the UK
Hi, would you mind confirming what scooters you have?….would love to get your thoughts-maybe a review?
Very few Big Nugget were produced because Ford dealers preferred to sell the smaller Nugget. Westfalia carried on with the Transit with the Meridian but it is not sold in the UK.
The Nugget looks a bit like the shift Trekker (one of my favourites from the show last week)
We have used an emovis tag for the toll roads for a while … always a bit nerve wracking when you first drive up to the barrier ‘will it work’ .. but then a joyous cheer when it does … throughly recommend them
Great vlog ! Have fun 👍
Thanks for another great video! Love to follow you on trips near and far 😊 How many nights have you had in the van so far this year? We are hoping to reach 40 i our 😊
Toll roads – why can’t you just sign up with toll operators and use ANPR to ID you? Denmark- Sweden bridge uses ANPR
Then you would not forget the dart charge etc
I bought a T6.1 a few weeks ago. Getting a bullnose like the Joker fitted on 3/11/25. So excited. Then to get it converted!!! I’m in Somerset.
Really love your channel but because you may know them, what has happened to ABAB? Not seen a post for a while and wee bit concerned
I probably missed you saying , which ferry company did you use ?
Great to see. I want to explore the Black Forest. I'm there next month with work at a place called Durbach near Offenburg but I need to do it without my laptop and meetings 🙂
Cor, they pack them in at that campsite. Not for me. Looks like a good location mind you.
Hi. Just ordered a Fulli tag. Just a question? Were there height barriers on the 30kph lanes.? We have a Cali 6.1. Just below 2m. I know yours his taller but did you have any problems. Classification seem different for tolls in France.
Added this site to our google map and will try it out next June on our way to Ticino, thanks for producing another great video. I would love a Sven Hedin but we are still relying on our Cali which has been brilliant. I take you point when the bad weather hits you really have to drop the pop up top it can become a bit to cozy.
Did you do the new passport control ie photo fingerprint?
That’s a stop for our run down to Italy, very informative vlog thank you.
We love the ferry for value for money and a bit of a break before a long drive 😊
Love the Coastguard, been there twice this year before the ferry 😊
Great vlog, and really informative. I may have missed it & if so forgive me, but when was this? As a general point almost all YouTubers seem to omit this detail which to the viewer is key information in order to get an idea of the weather, how busy places might be,events such as the Medieval Weekend, opening of locations, activities etc. Perhaps I’m missing something and there is some reason why bloggers generally don’t make their trip dates clear? Thanks.
Enjoyed sharing your trip.
We visited Munich and Lake Constance early September, great experience
Can I ask did you go into the Douanes office in Calais to get paperwork stamped for dog? We did this year after watching other videos of other motorhomers with dogs. Seems a bit of a grey area
Another interesting review of a site in the beautiful Black Forest. Thank you. Am I right in saying you don’t have a dash cam. I thought it might be a gadget that would be of interest and an opportunity for another product review. Keep up the good work.

If your in that area again try this place, lovely pool/spa and free regional bus train pass allowing you to see the sights in Basel etc. included in your stay for around €18-20 with electric hook-up also..
The fulli tag. When i try to order it will not accept my UK accounts. How did you manage to order one?
Looks like a wonderful trip. The weather looks beautiful; what was the date of your trip?
We have a lot in common, but we do the trips in the opposite direction. Also, nowadays its Wunderbar driving from Foret Noir to Calais without stopping. Carry on camping !
Hi. What dates were you at belchenblick? We are thinking of going and would like to see the festival. Cheers
That’s a revelation: you can have a 4 berth van, parents downstairs and 2 kids in the pop top. It hammers it down overnight, water gets into the pop top and soaks the bedding. Everyone then gets almost no sleep 😮. (32:38)
I had no idea.
