G'day everyone, On Friday, Paparazzi wrote: "Hi Globetrotterers,
"There is also an article on Daggsie's GT in the latest (May 2008) issue of "On The Road" magazine. Written by some bloke called Keith.
"Papa Razzi"Great to hear that the bloke named Keith has been out promoting V V's again. But his post has led me to think that this article is one of a number of articles about vintage caravans which have been published in caravan, motor and more general magazines (and newspapers) over the last few years. This reflects the fact that there has been more and more interest in V V's out there, which is great. Most (but possibly not all) articles have been publicised on the forum through a post from someone, but as usual the post sinks quickly and if you're looking for the post later, it can be hard to find. I wondered whether it might be worthwhile to start a thread called something like 'V V Magazine Articles' which could be used to post information about V V related articles as they're published. When anyone becomes aware of an article they can just post it on that thread. I am not sure whether the thread should be under the 'General' section or under 'Memorabilia'? However, we could lock it near the top of the section so that it is easy to find when needed... Just an idea folks. What do you think? Don Ricardo

Hi Don Ricardo, great idea, the articles in the various mags are always interesting, and on occasions it would be good to be able to refer back to a particular story, but now you can't without a fair bit of searching back thru the threads, so it would make the forum even more interesting for everybody to see!

Hi Don R, When I did my research through the old "General" section, any magazine articles that were actually scanned and posted on the forum were copied by me and put into the History "Reference books / magazines / articles" thread. Currently the last reply in that thread is a list of caravan magazines that contain articles about V.Vs (I think the list is from boblor?). Perhaps we can keep adding any new details into that thread? Check with the administrator of the History section and see whether he'll let you do that... He seems to be a reasonable guy! ;D cheers, Al.

Hi Don R Would agree that a separate thread would make it easy to find any articles. Cheers boblor
