Motorhome delays

Just found out that due to production delays my MH due date has now been pushed out from march/April to July.

Dealer reckons the chassis is being manufactured in may, hence the delay.

A bit gutted at this, as can’t wait to get it.

Also was really hoping to have it for the school holidays

Hang in there Robbie, good things come to those who wait !

That makes it much easier thank you

It you think about the delay all the time, the wait will be worse. I know it's a bit like "don't think of an elephant" when I say don't think of the delay.

It will be well worth of it. Hang on in there and keep planning the first trip.

Don't be too concerned about the quickest, the boat from France may be at most an hour longer, but you can wander around and get something to eat, also consider you will have an empty van, so if you want to look for all your stuff, bedding, towels, utensils, outside chairs, tables, bbq, etc. the big supermarkets, and the likes of Decathlon would be well worth some research before you go. And if you've been in France before, you'll know there are lots of things for the house you can only get there, and of course the wine. I would consider a full day shopping. ( the supermarket took me two hours and that was with a list, and I know my way areoud)

That is worth thinking about, I don't know what the deal is crossing trough the UK.have you looked into it?
Actual driving time on the road is nearly the same,about 7hours. it is at most 100km longer going to Cherbourg, depending if you go tolls or not and I would suggest an overnight in France anyway, I would presume the tunnel and ferry costs would be more then a one way from Cherbourg,
There is another thing spend a couple of hours finding out how everything works and where it's located, then unless you already know, go trough it yourself, on your own before you go on the road,
When I went to collect my van my travelling kit was,sleeping bag, coffee pot, mug, bowl, knife, fork and spoon. And the first thing I bought was a pillow,and a corkscrew
