Morning Mark,Hi Will, one more box ticked today, looked at lots of insurers and went with your recommendation on LV Motorhome cover. Good comprehensive cover no tracker required and at £470 cheaper than the next best price I found by over £200.
thank you for your advice.
next item on my list is a steering wheel lock if any one has a good recommendation.

Ok guess some of the areas will not have great reception from the phone and the routers will receive better than the phone. 30 day data sim card works well just cancel for the winter, ranges between £10/32 dependent on data and speed.Thanks for this Tim, Will I didn’t go with WiFi option hoping my phone connection will be good enough. I haven’t looked at thermal screens yet but yes it would be good if I could order one ahead of time.
Hi Bart.Hello ,
good news .
My dealer in Stuttgart, Germany, just wrote me that the diesel heating (YHC) Truma, is available again.
Due to Corona Truma had problems with parts delivery.

Hi Bart,Hi Will,

Bart
Hi Bart and very welcome. I must have mist some of your earlier post.Hi Will,

Morning Bart,Hi Will,
"I must have mist some of your earlier post."--> my former posts here are from a time you did not know of my existence
Everything is fine here. We also have a lock down and travel ban. We avoid as much direct contacts to other people. It is almost the same situation as in the UK.
For us it is not a big problem as we have enough to do and we go regularly outside for a walk.
One thing we very miss, are the trips to the UK (twice a year). My wife is from York UK, and she miss her family and friends .
I am still “configuring and reconfiguring“ a GC600 .
Because of lock downs everywhere we are not in a hurry.
From the German Cali forum I know that most of the teething problems are getting less and less now and the waiting time for a new GC here is in a range from 2 to 4 month, on the moment.
I am still playing with the different options as e.g. the different heating systems, also front window heating (de-icing).
I liked your LPG installation and found a small company here which has the experience to upgrade a GC gas heating with a LPG one you have. On the other side I like the place saving diesel heating.
So still not decided yet. And it is not easy to stay below the 3.5 T with our “must haves”
Have you already plans to make some nice GC trips after the lock downs? I like reading GC travel experiences. I just bought a nice travel camper guide for Scotland, can’t wait to go there .
Bart
Hi Will,
we need the space and not the extra over cab bed , that is already decided.
Scotland , the Islands , Cornwall, its al in our planning . Hope in the coming years.
Also plans for Norway, Sweden , Finland, France , Spain ..... hope we manage.
My wife has a friend in Dorset sure we will visit her sometime .
Lots of ideas and the time is flying by
Bart
