I understand if the company writing is something like a removal company or tradesman, but I'm going to argue if they say I cant use the tip ha
All they will say is you need a permit from your local council which you can apply online.
I'm on the Shropshire north Wales border in Wales you don't need a permit for small ,medium vans but do in Shropshire even though I havnt been asked for a permit yet
Just love this pic!
I love the 'real time' of how things are.. we all post pics of lovely, clean and uncluttered vans but seldom do we post 'real-time' pics of Life in VW world..
Took the van to work today to our site in Bradford.....they have finally laid out the new parking bays and the van fits - happy days!
What are the boats - guessing Lasers? Are you bringing any to Bala?
Yep, there is an ever expanding range of these "drive away" awnings - you can attach in a variety of ways, e.g. special awning rail, guttering, straps over the top. If you put "awning" into the search box (top tight corner above) there have been a few discussions around some of the awning available and ways of attaching.
Thanks, will do some hunting..
Used it for a Coastguard shout. Had to do some reasonably proper off roading in it; the van coped very well but now needs a wash.
All was okay; phew.

These are a selection of club boats here. Planning to bring a selection of our boats to Bala, so going to load up our triple stacker trailer, so will probably have daughters Oppie, Son's Topper, and Wife's Laser.
It's a Outdoor Revolution Movelite 4. Seems to be ok.
Yes @Tombs it is called a drive away awning so it has a kadar bead that slides down a Reimo multi-rail that is fixed to the side of the van. The tent then has four inflation chambers so you peg it out and then adjust the position of the van and connect the pair together. The beauty of it being is that if you want to go out for the day in the van you pull the kadar connector piece out and the two separate in about 5 seconds.
Nice little selection. You will see a variety of boats launching from the site. There is a sailing club down at the Bala end of the lake where we have seen Oppies out before. Also, a cat club about a mile down from camp on the opposite shore - F18s, etc. - very fast and scary, take no prisoners, sort of boats!! We've not been on the water since October so are really looking forward to it.
Awning up too, are you camping there? Lovely spot
Took the van up to Pendle performance hq for Martin to work his magic on the blackberry I couldn't cope any more with the unresponsive dsg , did seem much livelier on the way home but was all motorway dual carriageway ,will try it at some junctions today to see the diffence .Very nice bloke and would recomend him .Link to before and after printout figures and extra video is here Pendle Performance Ltd
