Over the last few weeks we've been to various motorhome dealers and been met with a fairly lukewarm reception to be honest. Today we found Richard Baldwin Motorhomes at Halifax - http://rbm.co.uk/ and things suddenly got a lot better! They are keen to support the ride and help Cancer Research UK (they have supported several other charities in the past including McMillan Nurses) and so did us a fantastic deal on a great second-hand 6-berth motorhome. So here it is...! Thanks to Gary Morgan and Paul Heeley at Richard Baldwin Motorhomes for their friendly welcome.
We'll take delivery at the end of March and hopefully there will be time for a short 'shake-down' trip before May.
Val looks pleased (well, she'll be driving it for about three weeks!). And the 'garage' storage area at the back will literally carry a shed load of luggage (it's even big enough for someone to sleep in).
So now the motorhome problem is sorted - with thanks also to RBS (they don't know about it yet!) - but there's lots more to do.
Caravan parks and camp sites are being very generous, in many cases providing accommodation overnight on an FOC basis - they will all get a mention.
And thanks also to Ken Kay and Nicola at the Kay Group, who have obtained support from both Shell and Texaco to help keep the costs down.
