Hi All

Just a quick note to say that I won’t be blogging today as we are mobbed by the hordes at the NEC Show. It is full of buzz and excitement so if you’re not coming tomorrow then why not?

Next time I’ll bring you my thoughts on the new Bailey Pegasus 534.

Speaking to lots of people today, giving quotes and listening to their stories of their caravanning exploits.

It amazes me how many people still keep their caravan at home. I never would, simply because it makes it very obvious when you’ve gone away. It’s a bit like sticking a big ‘burgle me please’ sign in your front garden.

Saw two salesman this morning dressed in Star Trek outfits! Now caravan dealers are usually more likely to be seen in Hugo Boss than lycra so I wondered what was going on. My friend Richard from the Dethleffs Owners Club dragged me over to take a look.

Phew! A manic start to the show. People everywhere and no room to move in the aisles.

Positive stuff for an industry that’s had an uncertain 12-18months.

We have seen hundreds of people on our the Win a Bailey Pegasus stand and I’ve had a good look around a selection of new motorhomes from Rapido, Dethleffs and Burstner.
