Do a practice run at home Whether this is pitching your tent to make sure you have all the gear, working out how your fridge works or having the kids practice sleeping in the same room — if you’ve got the opportunity for a practice run, it will pay dividends, while also feeling like your camping trip lasts that little bit longer. 2. Click and collect is your friend Nothing beats planning and ordering your groceries before rolling into the supermarket carpark to load everything up on the way through town. It also prevents you forgetting that bag from the fridge on the way out of the house. 3. Have an easy heat and eat meal for the first night You’ve already driven for hours, then set-up always takes longer than expected, so make it easy on yourself by having something on hand that you can pull out and heat up — think frozen pizza, American hot dogs, or a meal you prepared earlier. Keep it S.I.M.P.L.E. 4. The first night is always the hardest If you’re prepared that your first night of sleep is going to suck, it won’t suck so much! The kids are out of routine, you’re in a new place, you’re sharing a room, it sounds different, and it feels like they Will. Not. Go. To. Sleep. that first night. It’s the same for everyone (well, everyone we’ve spoken to). Roll with it, and everyone can have a mid-afternoon rest the following day. 5. Plan time to do “nothing” It’s so easy to write a big list of places you want to check out and explore, but don’t forget to schedule some downtime at the beach or playground or just hanging out at camp. From our experience, it’s never until we sit down and do “nothing” that we remember how vital it is. 6. Embrace the dirt Yes, your caravan/tent will be filled with sand/grass/dirt/leaves/rocks/crumbs. Yes, you will sweep the floor 9000x a day. No, it won’t really help. But the kids will have such an adventure thriving in the outdoors. Pro tip: Keep a bucket of water by the door to rinse little feet in on the way inside. 7. Add a sprinkle of magic Don’t forget toasted marshmallows, torches and glow sticks in the dark (also helpful to keep track of the littlies), a campfire with friends (fire restrictions permitting) and all those things that memories are made of. 8. Pack a first aid kit You’re generally that bit further from a main city so it’s best to be prepared in advance with a good stock of band aids, allergy medications and pain relief etc. 9. Be prepared for rainy days A good book, a couple of card games, some craft supplies or some magnet tiles are going to get you through the downpours relatively unscathed. 10. On the flip side, there’s no such thing as bad weather… …only bad clothing choices. Remember to pack the wet weather gear and get out and explore anyway. There’s not a lot better to get us out and about in all seasons… than two kids in a caravan.

As campers, we travel and explore New Zealand, from the mountains to the beaches and most places in between. We spend money on food, fuel, and activities as we pass through an area. Consider stopping for a night or three at one of the smaller towns or villages Public Toilets in Kawakawa, Northland Old General Store at Tikitiki, East Cape Consider stopping for a night or three at one of the smaller towns or villages. You will be amazed at what you might find. They often have hidden gems tucked away just off the main road. Even if you can only stop for lunch or a cuppa you will see interesting new things and meet new people along with supporting a small town. We have all said “we must look at that next time” — next time may be too late. These towns are dying at an alarming rate. We cannot stop the tide, but we can slow it down. Every little bit helps. Social media has its place and can be used to promote towns and attractions. If you find one of the hidden gems, post it online, so others know and can also visit. The more visitors an area gets the more prosperous it becomes and less likely to vanish. We cannot save the world alone but together we can make a difference. Up Up 3 Autumn 2023 , p 17

Have you ever wondered whether there would be a more environmentally friendly way of using your caravan toilet? If so, a SOG® system is the solution for you! Nobody is a fan of unpleasant odours, especially not when on holiday and definitely not in confined living spaces such as those found in motorhomes and caravans. Now imagine being able to go to the toilet in your motorhome or caravan and be welcomed by nothing but the freshest of air! For owners of a SOG system, this dream is nothing but an everyday reality. Through the use of an electrically powered ventilator, SOG is able to remove any odours coming from the toilet and is also able to completely eliminate the need for toilet chemicals. This makes SOG good for both the environment and your wallet. The SOG system comes as a kitset which can easily be installed either by yourself, if you have the correct tools, or otherwise any RV workshop. These kitsets can be retrofitted to any existing Thetford or Dometic cassette toilet and come in three different vent location versions, depending on the van and space available: door, floor or roof installation are possible. Made in Germany, the SOG® System has been around in Europe for close to 30 years. Protect the environment and your wallet in the long run. You can find all of the information and all the SOG kitsets as well as the spare parts such as filters, fan motors etc. on Moutere Caravans website and online shop. mouterecaravans.co.nz/sog-system Up Up 3 Autumn 2023 , p 16

Like many hobbies and interests you can keep it simple or get into it seriously. My home brewing of beer and cider has been from a can or kit which has included stout, various ales and lagers, Hazy Ipa (opaque, juicy beers), and apple cider. Wine has been from a variety of fruits, vegetables, even coffee and ginger, however grapes are the natural best thing and it just happens without too much intervention. Spirits happened by chance when an entry-level air still called a Vodka Maker came up in a Buy Sell Swap paper for $150 ($300 new back then). Already having a brew barrel to start a ferment, in went 6kg of sugar, a sachet of liquid carbon and a turbo yeast, giving a total volume of 23 litres. Sit it on the dining table or kitchen bench if you have no dedicated room or area to do this. 1: Brew barrel 2: A sachet of liquid carbon and a turbo yeast At room temperature this may take a week, more in cooler months, but a heat pad will achieve fermentation in 2 or 3 days ➊ ➋.

In picture ➎ at left is a heating kettle that boils and produces a steam that condenses in the fan-cooled coil in the head and drips out into a collection jug. Unlike a more complex still (like a column still, such as Turbo 500 ($500–700), which need constant attention with temperature and flow, discarding the first 50mls etc, this one has a continuous run of 4–6 hrs and you are done. With an air still, like this one ➎, you just wait and collect the first 750mls then stop, which takes about 3 hours, and you need to do 6 runs for 23 litres of fermented product, so to be practical, I do 3 one day and 3 the next. 6: This raw spirit is then run thru a carbon filter and diluted back to 1 litre This raw spirit is then run thru a carbon filter and diluted back to 1 litre ➏ and is now ready to flavour. There is a range of flavours available in a brew shop or Bin Inn ➐. A general spirit of whiskey, rum, gin vodka etc works out at about $15 a bottle, Irish cream, Khalua or Galiano around $22 ➑. Joining a local club and talking with other brewers will expand your set up, process and what you make. This hobby has been shared with many visitors , and of course fellow campers, so keep and eye out and we might share a tipple with you at a camp near you.

I was incredibly lucky to be invited to visit at a ‘permanent’ summer camp run by a 4WD club, several summers ago. Summer 2023 ISSUE 6 BUY PDF CONTENTS Up Sharing the summertime Up Miriam Richardson I was incredibly lucky to be invited to visit at a ‘permanent’ summer camp run by a 4WD club, several summers ago. A large field bounded by a stream and its fringe of willows, well out of sight of the road — room for everyone to have their own relatively private campsite. There is a central arena, with space for kids on bikes, and a New Year bonfire. They have shared long drops and hot showers — throw a log in the shower boiler whenever you walk past on the way to the loos. The land is leased over the summer period, and each spring group members head out to see what havoc the winter wove. They tidy up and or repair their camp sites, trim the trees, set up the long drops, digging new holes with their handy post-hole digger, chop fire wood for the boiler, set up the showers and tame the grass. Weekends begin the season, then the long summer break when families come and stay for weeks. When work calls, some families stay on, welcoming the workers back for weekends; then school goes back, and camping is a weekend affair again, until the final tidy up — filling in the long drop holes, securing the toilets and showers for the winter, packing down the camping gear and kitchens and taking stuff home. The camp setups are as varied as the people. There are buses, caravans, tents, and mixtures and variations of them. There are day rooms, keeping the sun and rain off. Some families share a kitchen and living area and have their family tents as bedrooms. Some use a totally portable kitchen, others, like the one pictured, have a more permanent kitchen setup, repaired or adapted, as required, each year. This kitchen even has herbs. This kind of ‘permanent’ camping, families sharing the summertime year to year, differs from a regular campground experience. Though it does remind me of my uncle’s camping in the 1960s— at a campground, but each summer the same site, the same set of families: lives from quite different places, sharing just the summer holiday. Perhaps if freedom camping becomes more difficult we will create more of these shared spaces for our summering.   n Up Up Click on the gallery for a full size view Preparing tea. ©2023 M Richardson Poptop and campsite with the neighbour's dog. ©2023 M Richardson When you need lots of hot water the big thermette was perfect.
