Somerset in September 

My humans are back again. For a change I thought I'd write this blog instead of letting them do it. Let me introduce myself, I'm a Bailey Pursuit 560-5 and I own two humans. They normally come to visit me on their own, on one occasion though they did bring their two grown up daughters... Continue Reading →

17 Minutes from Home

Tuesday morning, the sun is shining and the forecast is good for the next couple of days. A little more relaxed today in our preparation to getting the caravan hitched up and on the road. We discovered a site quite near to home on the Internet a few months ago and now seems a good... Continue Reading →

Equip Waterless Wash Wipes

We took Equip Waterless Wash Wipes away in the caravan with us. The first morning we set ourselves the challenge of using the wipes instead of washing/showering. We were impressed with the way the wipes worked. They certainly freshened and gave you that 'just washed' feel even on your underarms. They are thicker and stronger than... Continue Reading →

Return to Rookesbury… With grown up children

Picture the scene... 10 hour shift just finished. Takeaway eaten. Caravan site booked. Wine opened. Bring on my mid week weekend. Rewind to 1992. Challenge Anneka did a challenge and made a charity tape, Tommy's Tape, that really appealed to my little ones musical taste of the time. Fast forward to 2016 and she is... Continue Reading →

Norfolk ‘n’ Chance

It's early Tuesday morning and we are loading the car for 9 nights at a CL in Norfolk. 9 nights means I'm a little more organised than for our usual 2 night breaks. Off to the storage site to get the legs up and off we go. Still within 2 miles from home and we... Continue Reading →

Sozzed in Slinfold

Tuesday morning. Sun's out. Let's get those legs down again. As usual a bit of a last minute decision to take the caravan out. I'd been itching to get back to Slinfold CC site and today seemed like a good day to go. Quick phone call and we had secured a pitch for 2 nights.... Continue Reading →

And Breathe…

We are a northern couple, who for the last 10 years have been living down south in Hampshire.  Working for a big corporate company, promotion meant we upped sticks and moved from our native town of Bolton to rural Hampshire with our two teenage girls. Fast forward 8 years and holiday planning for the summer... Continue Reading →

Back to our Northern Roots

Ten years ago we upped sticks from the familiarity of our native town of Bolton to Hampshire. Steve, at that time, was working for a big corporate company and a promotion meant a move south. This means that any trips back to see friends and family are normally just one or two night stays. Trying... Continue Reading →

A walk to Summerseat

A trip to the north west in our caravan. A time to visit family and friends after we moved south ten years ago. Let's spend time with people we haven't seen for ages was the plan. A ten day break seemed perfect. Burrs Country Park, Bury booked. Off we went. One week later, completely exhausted... Continue Reading →

April Showers in Cirencester

After trawling eBay for a few weeks we finally found an awning, in Gloucester! Only one thing for it, our 3 days off midweek are going to be spent in Cirencester.  We are quite lucky to have 3 days off during the week, every other week come hail or shine we try to get our... Continue Reading →
