Hi all,
I've been visiting forum here since July but since I did not have a campervan I had little to add to discussion.
But after years of dreaming, and actively searching since April, we bought our first campervan last week and had our first night away on saturday, so now I feel part of the camper fraternity and ye are stuck with me now!
Spent the weekend in Westport and toured around for a couple of days and it is like we have been away for longer. After we got over the arguements about who was standing where in the van, the lack of plates and cups and the smoke alarm announcing that cooking had started, we relaxed and very much enjoyed ourselves, even if we are on a steep learning curve!!
So hopefully you will forgive me if there are a lot a basic questions on the way in the near future.
regards
Finbarr

Great stuff and good to have you on board, hope you have many happy years Motorhoming!

If you need to know anything ask away, that's what we are here for. I have only been Motorhoming just over a year myself, so we are all learning.

You are not alone in starting out, we have only been motor homing since May. Everyone I have met in person here, and believe me they are worth meeting, have been very welcoming, for those I have still to meet I am looking forward to it. So be like me and join in, you will be surprised how much you get out of the forum.

I haven't even started out yet! I still have a lot of sweat equity to pay out on our camper before I can call myself a motor-home'r... (hopefully next year)

So Finbarr, you're one step ahead of me!

Welcome
