It's been tippling it down all night. The rain was so loud we struggled to sleep in the caravan last night. Splashing through the footbath, sorry the awning to the shower block, The Boss decides we need to go out later to escape this rain cloud that has decided to spend it's holiday with us. ...

You know it's not a good day to have to pack up as the sunlight wakes you streaming through the skylight above your bed. Granola chomped and tea slurped. It's 9am and with the chance of a long drive ahead of us we'd best get a wriggle on. Cupboards emptied and safely stowed away, car... Continue Reading →
Who can resist a factory tour? Especially when it's at Bailey of Bristol, manufacturers of Caravan and Motorhome leisure vehicles, and you are the owner of a much loved Bailey Pursuit Caravan. A casual verbal invitation was issued during our recent attendance at the The New Bailey Unicorn – Launch Event so, in our excitement professional interest... Continue Reading →
Run ahead lads and tell me what you can see.... "Err, Dad".. pause... "A dead baby in a bush", but more about that later. Faster, Faster, Faster, Faster, Stop! By 'The Beat' plays in the car and we are stopped. Engine off and people are out of their cars. Flashing blue lights about a dozen... Continue Reading →
Arrived on site at Makins Fishery near Nuneaton, just as the heavens opened with biblical force. Pitched up very quickly, nose on to a beautiful fishing lake. Beautiful even in a downpour. The rain continued throughout the day and into the evening. Noah, a fisherman down on the banks started playing with wood as wild... Continue Reading →
The opportunity of an extra day in the caravan is one not to be missed. The Boss has finished his shift at 10am and is ready to go, but the weather is rotten and I'm struggling to summon motivation. As he sulks looking at the floor his phone rings, can he do another shift starting... Continue Reading →
We've been home just over a month now and it's time to reflect on what was the trip of a lifetime. The caravan has been cleaned inside and out ready for its next trip, washing done and we're back at work, back to the daily grind. Our 50 days for our 50th was the best... Continue Reading →
A marathon journey, eight hours, no peage, and we've only done six inches on the map. One of the hottest days of the trip so far and I've been sat in the passenger seat with a French map book stuck to my knees having map reading lessons. I've no idea why I need to learn... Continue Reading →
Arriving at Camping La Coccinelle was the start of our last week and hopefully the start of a bit of Rest & Relaxation. We arrived and it was blowing a hooley. Shown to a pitch we decided against putting the canopy up and quickly retreated inside the caravan. We were feeling a bit of a... Continue Reading →
Legs down on another site. This time we chose a site run by a lovely Dutch couple, on the side of another mountain. This holiday is starting to repeat itself. Just in case I haven't mentioned before, The Boss has a love of mountains, bridges, waterfalls, old cemeteries, castles and war graves. On route he... Continue Reading →
