Hi Bronagh, This is just a suggestion. Mark was asking about Photos in an earlier post. You could just post a link to the ad instead of trying to upload the Photos.

The Best of luck and many years of happy camping with your new van.

Cheers. T

P.S. Oops: sorry Bronagh you were uploading as I was typing.

Just joined a minute ago so I want to say hello!

Seemed to be a few wild campers down there too...its a nice spot!
