Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

We used to get issued a really effective insect repellent, back in the '80s. I assume the ingredients are now illegal in most countries, banned by an international convention or 2 ;) :)

I've tried everything going and they still bite me. I also react quite badly and am left with red lumps in many places. It doesn't stop me going places. I couldn't live in Kinlochleven though :-/. Memories of midgies during whw race....

My first ever night in a hired motorhome was in Kinlochleven. Unintentional wild camping as we were going to miss the cut off time to get to the campsite. Cue hurried googling of wild camp spots in the area...

I'm a bit confused on something about insurance.

The question asks "Has the vehicle been changed in any way from the vehicle
manufacturers standard specification?" Is the correct answer to this Yes or No?

They have insured it as a "VOLKSWAGEN TRANSPORTER MOTORCARAVAN" with body type "Motor Caravan"

Sorry, Ronnie, I don't know the answer to that. I got specialist campervan insurance, but I did the actual policy set up over the phone. I think I would have said something like "well, it's obviously been converted into a campervan, ha ha!", but I guess that's more difficult to put on a written application form! Haven't got a clue what the person on the line put into the box.

Yeah, I think that's what they're looking for. Just worried I got it wrong.

I called and spoke to ours and we listed every thing that has been done on the van. Really good and feel happier now it is insured properly as such. Our last insurance changed the cover without hardly any notice come renewal - it was a good job I questioned them or we would have been under insured
