An evening in the caravan is so different to an evening at home. For a start we don't have a TV, no news, no One Show, no Corrie, oh how I miss my Corrie. I feel caravan life, I smell caravan life and my goodness, it smells good. An evening normally starts as the sun... Continue Reading →

Looking back at 2016
Looking back it seems like we have packed an awful lot of trips into 2016 and done quite a bit of tinkering to make the caravan more personal to us.

Towing in France
Thought we would share some thoughts on our trip to France in the summer of 2015. If anyone out there has wondered or feared what it is like to tow outside our shores, then maybe this will give some food for thought. To date, this is our only trip abroad with the caravan but we...

Wessex Cleaning Products Review
We recently reviewed Blue Bio Toilet fluid from the Wessex Cleaning Product range. In the packaging three sample products were included. Here's what we thought of them. Odour Eliminator We originally intended Odour Eliminator for using in the caravan but got the chance to use it at home first. One cat with a poorly tummy using... Continue Reading →
