Is it just me or have most of the images on the site disappeared? Is it a photobucket problem?

We're thinking of different places we might visit this summer and Scandinavia has popped up. Has anyone used the Harwich-Esbjerg ferry? Would anybody recommend Denmark and Sweden as a camping holiday? Thanks in advance for any suggestions!

Wish me luck!

Having spent two summer holidays travelling in Normandy and the Loire Valley, we decided to bite the bullet this summer and pay for the Portsmouth -> Bilbao ferry and take the van to the Basque Country. The campsite we booked into for our first few nights turned out to be so convenient, we...

One of the advantages to working in TV is that the TV company know where to come for a VW! We covered a Welsh Language music festival last month (a sort of Welsh Glastonbury) and my van was used as part of the set!

Okay, my thread in 'General' was locked, perhaps because it was in the wrong place, I don't know, I wasn't told, but basically I have a 1971 van but since I've bought her, the front grill has been square edged a la a late bay, rather than being rounded. The other day I set about putting on an...

I have a 1971 van but since I've bought her, the front grill has been square edged a la a late bay, rather than being rounded. Today I set about putting on an early bay front grille ... or so I thought! The early rounded grille is too small leaving large gaps either side. So have I had the...

I'm sure that as soon as someone answers the question I will be suitably embarrased as to delete the thread immediately but ... ... what do BB and WB stand for when discussing wing mirrors? :? Thanks :D

We're planning on driving down through France from LeHavre and in to the Basque country to Bilbao this summer. So, here's my request - are there any campsites you could recommend between Normandy and Bilbao which would do for a couple of nights stop over on the way down? Thanks :)

Just got back from 10 days away with work to find my van having gear selection problems ... to say the least! My father - being a kindly soul - needed to move my van to get to the car which was behind her at the bottom of the drive ... at the time he rang me and said he'd had problems "finding...

We're ready for halloween in our house with our campervan pumpkin ... 8)

For the second year running we had last minute hitches before our hols ... fortunately, for the second year running fellow Earlybayers have shown why this site is the friendliest and bestest site in the world 8) Anyhow, this is us on arrival at our campsite in Le Brévedent - making our third...

Can anyone recommend any good campsites in Belgium? The good lady wife fancies a 'different country' to France and I quite fancy visiting Brugges. Ideally looking for somewhere my 10 and 12 year old kids will enjoy too! (not asking much, I know!)

My bus has been in the garage being welded and mended for the past few months, but now it seems she won't start. She has been turned over every now and then whilst in the garage, but on trying to start her last week ... nothing. On turning the ignition, all the ignition lights come on, but...

Hmmmmm, just the one slight snag in your plan Mr T-shirt selling man ... Early Bay T-shirt you say?

Last year in France I wasn't able to buy any Camping gas nor Calor gas and had to borrow a different regulator valve from the campsite which would fit their style of bottles. Does anyone know what the regulator valves are which will fit the French style bottles and where I can buy a valve...

... I spotted this Morris Traveler whilst travelling back up from Cardiff on Sunday - made me feel a lot better about the work required on my bus!!

I hadn't realised how difficult it was to source a front grill for an Early Bay. Plenty of places can sell me a Late Bay version, which is probably why the previous owner's stuck a square grill in the first place! Anyway, any help, links, advice welcome :)

... damn! Just had the dreaded phone call from the MOT tester. Apparently there's too much welding needs to be done underneath - "too much for me to take on", he said, which sounded ominous :(

Just thought I'd post a picture of the birthday cake my brother-in-law made for me: ... and to top it all, the sponge was two-tone green and white too!
