After seventeen years of amazing fun and travels we've had to sell. Neither of us is well enough to drive or consider the long (or even short) journeys we've so much enjoyed.
We had two good offers for our 2007 Swift Firebrand 590. One from We By any Amy Motorcaravan which was very fair (and they were delightful to deal with) and the other from the owner of the place we stored it. This was slightly higher and we didn't have to do anything apart from wait for the money to come in which it did that afternoon.
When I look back one of the best things has been the fun and camaraderie on here (and for the first couple of years from 'the other one'.).
I'll still be lurking to see what Northernraider is up to and how old-mo is. I'll also visit 'Oops' which was such a huge laugh for so long. I'll never ever forget Nanniemate's interminable songs.
Thanks everyone for your help and advice over the years and particular thanks to Jim without whom none of this would have been possible. I won't say goodbye because we aren't going anywhere (unfortunately literally now) and I'll still join in sometimes.
Thanks.

We are approaching a similar position but hope to manage another two to three years.

Best wishes for good health and an enjoyable future, even without the motorhome.

It's always sad and happens at some point unfortunately, :cry: we hope the next chapter is a happy one. (y)
Glad you had a result with the motorhome and you still have many happy memories that you made. 😃😎 Bob and Janie.

It’s a hard decision but brave to recognise that there are different solutions as our lives change … we have loved tenting, caravanning, motorhoming … yet to try canal boating and having a lodge or a town/city flat …
