Visit to see the flowers

I am wanting to go and see the flowers in Namaqualand this year, and am looking for recommended caravan parks that do not need 4x4 vehicles to get to. I would prefer sites closest to Johannesburg if possible. Thanking you Ray Senior

Rather not CCSA.

Rather not CCSA.

appologies for finger problems on previous thread. me and BlackBerry are not friends. That was the fourth try which I eventually sent to get it posted before being timed out again. Other e-mails referred to were all sent from work where I am more accustomed.

Rather not CCSA

Rather not CCSA

to cut a long story short, these guys rather try s d prove you a liar than address the issue. Because their contact ud does not leave a copy on my system,I did not send a complaint on 3 occasions. Even after informing their President on the 4/5th occasion, the focus remains on trying to prove I did not send complaints ratratheratratherr than addressing the issue. When looking around for a caravan club, rather look around. CCSA don\'t ...

Botswana road conditions

Botswana road conditions

Hi all, I\'m trying to find out the road conditions between Nata and Kasane in particular.. This road was washed out in recent years. I can only establish so far that they \"are working on it\". Is it suitable now to tow a Rapier up there behind a car? I don\'t want to leave the road too much a spend kilometers on detours. We will be traveling Martins Drift - Nata - Kasane and possibly also to Katimo in Nam.Thanks, I ...

Bauer Fridges

Bauer Fridges

Beware of Bauer equipment fitted to caravans. These units come with a one year warranty only. How do the normal workingclass campers test these units within one year.(max of 30 days use per year),and then get no response from the manufacturerswhen complaining.Jurgens CI Should also fit more well known electrical equipment to caravans. My fridge packed up after only 43 day's of use in 36 months. Bauer SA claims that these units were ...

Scottburgh Caravan Park

Scottburgh Caravan Park

We are planning on visiting the KZN South Coast again at the end of the year.  I do have a few concerns though.  The most important is surely the security.  Who was recently at this fantastic park and is there in fact a concern?

At last, an exiting caravan market!

Gone are those days when all caravans on the South African Market looked alike - only in different colors!  Thanks to a few imports to shake our foundations, like the Fendt's and Dehtleff's.  An how innovative have our guys become - Conqueror with their rugged jewel and now Sensation with the Vee - we could only see a glimpse of it so far (thanks!).What a sensation is the Vee!  A glamorous, fresh design...  with the kitchen in the win ...

Saamtrekke / Rallies NOT a Club

Hi,Ek is ook op die ander twee kamp Forums en daar het ons Saamtrekke / Rallies wat ons hou met die Forum gebruikers. Daar is geen klub of lede op skrif nie. Die Forum gebruikers besluit waar wil hulle heen gaan en dan neem een of so die leiding, elkeen is self verandwoordelik vir hulle bespreking en betalings. Maar ons probeer dan tenminste een aand saam braai en 'n groep foto neem.Hier kan dit nogal in die tydskrif ook verskyn so ...
