Need to save money on caravan maintenance? Tims Tips here:

Hey!

It's the start of summer! Yesterday, I was inside sheltered from the crazy wind and rain... great start to summer!

We're yet to put up the Christmas tree as we've been busy getting kids birthday parties ready, this is alway a hectic time of year! You'll find a great little article on Business Insider that I wrote just last week, all about Christmas in the caravan, feel free to check it out :)

But for now, back to our blog, and we've added a few new articles. Tim's been hard at work writing about caravan maintenance, and I've been BTS with a little?? project.

I've been working on an app that ties together travel planning, from caravan trips to holiday bookings, and all the boring admin stuff that goes with it. But what I've been wanting to achieve is to have a system that allows the adults in your family to plan together, in a fun, gamified way - effectively sharing the mental load.

If you have any ideas or comments, I would love to hear about them. I'll share my progress with you as I navigate the world of coding! (I have a heap of experience with webpage coding, but this is a whole new level!)
