Norfolk Motorhome Show 2017

          2017 was the first year that IHOC had organised an “official” Meet at the Norfolk Motorhome Show and this was attended by eight IH vans. We welcomed new members Yvonne and Keith Fowkes from Derbyshire who were attending their very first IHOC Meet. Although a small gathering we were still allocated a pleasant area on the Showground convenient to all the amenities and the trade display area.

Peterborough 2017

Fifteen  members' units, including some new members to our rallies, camped with the iH Owners group at the Peterborough Show.  As usual the show was vast with many companies selling either motorhomes or every accessory you needed or  thought you needed, to browse over the weekend.

Harrogate Gathering Winter 2016

Harrogate Winter Gathering

We have now had several IHOC Winter Gatherings and have always been fortunate to have had reasonably good weather for the time of year. This year however there were a few rather wet days but it did not prevent the owners of 27 IH vans enjoying their time at the Harrogate campsite.

IHOC at the Western Motorhome Show August 2016

 

27 vans were booked in for this year’s IHOC Meet at the Western Motorhome show at Malvern & the weather was very kind with clear blue skies & plenty sunshine.

With an increase in numbers from recent years we were lucky to be “pitched” in an area much nearer to the show.

Rear Bodywork Cracks

There are a number of posts in the Forum re ‘cracks’ appearing in the rear bodywork of vans. We have a 2013 Oregon RL - Anniversary Edition. The Warranty expired in April 2016. We also have identified a crack, about 125mm long, situated adjacent to the rear window - drivers side. There is also a smaller crack, about 25mm long near the top above the window - also driver’s side.

A good time was had by all, despite the very mixed weather.

Spring Gathering at South Lytchett 2016

      Twenty-seven vans attended the meet at South Lytchett Manor Camp Site overall, some coming and going during the week .
       The vans were spread out a bit  mainly due to the site being busy and the schools were still on Easter break.

Fold Down Table Leg Modification

We have been frustrated on occasion by the difficulty of using the outside table that folds down at the sliding door, so at last I have got round to modifying it. It should be noted that ours is the older type where the legs are made of tubular square section steel tube. First job was to source some tube that will fit inside the leg tube, I bought one length of 15.5 x 15.5 mm aluminium square tube 1 m long from Wickes for £7.17. Cut the tube into two 500 mm lengths.

Morocco without a Fridge and other adventures

Fun, disaster and a trip of a lifetime.

Cast your mind back to the old films with Bob Hope, Bing Crosby & Dorothy Lamour in The Road To…..films of the 1950’s, if you can. Last year we did an expedition something like a camel train.
