Great park up advice Daz, we first started watching your vlogs back in 2019 so it’s great to see where you were actually parking back then. Love how you’re showing how to park up responsibly. ❤

[@VanNessa-Blurton]

Love the park up advice videos. It’s how I first learnt ‘park up rules’ when I got my camper. Your tips definitely gave me the confidence to get out there! 😊

[@ScottCockman-i9t]

It's crazy to see all these spots daz, back when you was trucking I lived very close to those spots and never noticed you

[@terenceseymour-tf8rptassie725]

I like the more relaxed and informative style this week😊

[@TheUrbanMotorhome]

Thanks mate, you want to see more of these parkup video or?

[@terenceseymour-tf8rptassie725]

@@TheUrbanMotorhome just daily life in the motor home videos is what I am looking for . Have you done a Q and A ?

[@TheUrbanMotorhome]

I can do them, appreciate you replying mate. I’ll do a Q&A in a month or so, I’ll put the word out for questions 👍🏻😊

[@TheHillsExplore]

Great selection of park ups Daz and really gives us all ideas of where is possible. Love that you are really thoughtful to the locals as there are a few determined to give everyone a bad name so need people like you. Keep on laughing 🤣

[@TheUrbanMotorhome]

Yeah I mean a lot of people do struggle with parkups I know but they don’t have to be over thought as long as you in no one’s way I’ve never had any problems. Yeah there will always be a few won’t there which is a shame but what can ya do, vigilante justice is frowned upon so I’m told! Haha

[@jackiedonaldson6377]

Hey Daz just bought a Rapido 9048df, selling the house and going full time vanlife with the wife. Could you do a vlog on the different types of motorhomes e.g A class, coachbuilt and what are the positives in each type. Cheers 👍

[@deborahrosa123]

Interesting insight into choosing parkups and I like the more relaxed presentation style. I'd be interested in more detail on the portable powerpacks, how to choose one, what you can run from them, how to keep them charged up off grid, etc

[@LoftechUK]

4:13 that where my Motorhome lives as they have the biggest storage site for the club Caravan and Motorhome so wife and I stay there a lot

[@egertcaka]

You are lovely character love watching your videos. Bring back motorhome monday if possible. Wishing you happy times.

[@DolittleCampers]

Great bit of insight Daz. You and your videos were instrumental in us doing Urban Park ups. I usually feel safer in Urban ones than rural tbh

[@TheUrbanMotorhome]

Thanks mate, funny you say that because I’m the same, I’ve been urban from the start so it’s home to me, stick me out in the middle of nowhere sure it’s beautiful but I do sometimes get that scared feeling, I’m all alone out here lol since quitting work that has taken me sometime to get used to to be fair.

[@DolittleCampers]

@@TheUrbanMotorhome I also think believe it or not that there are less restrictions and more options with Urban. I think I could find somewhere much faster in an Urban environment than in the Peak District for example. Keep up the great work mate

[@garryc8744]

Thats a great vlog, probably the best of it's type that i have watched,tnx

[@colblimp]

Great video, Darran - still debating whether to go full time. Your idea of doing a month is a good one, I'll set up for that very soon.

[@TheUrbanMotorhome]

Thanks mate, 100% do the month idea gotta be worth a shot an then go from there 👍🏻😊

[@VeganVanTours]

WOW. Thanks for the tips.

[@TheUrbanMotorhome]

You’re most welcome, thank you for watching 😊

[@pageant1fd]

Very informative Daz . Which is, if any , the more difficult, night or day park ups ?

[@TheUrbanMotorhome]

I would say nighttime will be harder out of the two because most people will be home from work so that will be harder, but I would say you can still find places, if I was looking for a park up then I would start looking just before the 5/6 o’clock mark before it goes dark to make sure it’s easy to park. Ultimately that being said I’ve still never failed finding a park up and you always find somewhere to park.

[@kennybaker3141]

Good on you mate.From a fellow Harlow boy.

[@brendafradd1054]

Thanks for your interesting tips. We have a folding Pennine camper so these parking places are not going to help us but you were talking about the Ecoflow things in your blog. We only bought our camper second hand a year ago as tent camping was getting too much for us. My husband is 81 and I’m 77! We have solar panels at home and on a whim my husband bought a 100w panel, a 1inverter and a solar charge

[@brendafradd1054]

Ooops, pressed the wrong button. It’s a 1000w inverter and a solar charge controller. We want to use it with our Pathfinder but it’s sitting in the dining room as we don’t know how to use it! Set it up or attach to our leisure battery. Any suggestions would help. You seem to be the right guy for ideas. By the way we know Mark Hall well and lived in Epping for some years before moving up to Suffolk in 1976. I’ve got a photo of the panel and bits to go with it but don’t know him w to attach it! Any help would be very welcome.

[@darenfox4882]

Great video Daz love the old park ups

[@The-Good-Life-Off-Grid]

I have a question in the winter diesel heater on, do you worry that it disturbs people, or do you make sure that you’re well away from areas where people could hear it . I spent my childhood bought up in Hatfield, me and my friends used to go on picnics into Hatfield house. It’s not the same now. I have my dogs I’m trying to find places to park up where I can let them have a green area. I’m finding that very difficult now I’ve got a high top van and now they put barriers up and it’s made it even harder for me now 😢 take care

[@kevinhughes9801]

Cheers Kevin, any other videos you’d like to see more of?

[@ezm1643]

Hi Daz. On your episode about Horizon parking on supermarket carparks. There are some Morrisons near me without paying machines and cameras however Horizon still accepts payment. Do you still have to pay.

[@TheUrbanMotorhome]

If there are boards saying you can only stay so long then I would, I would have a very good look for the ANPR camera which will be a the entrance and exit bottle necks but ultimately for the sake of £3 ish I would pay it and then I’m covered, rather that then the hassle of fighting a fine. Hope this helps 😊👍🏻

[@HarlowHammer]

Not sure I will buy another EcoFlow product. Although I'm satisfied with my River, I bought it without the expansion battery to make sure I liked it. Within a year, I tried to purchase the expansion battery, but they were discontinued. Now I'm stuck with the River and no expansion battery. 😞
