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 →
Makins Fishery Campsite is situated next to the M69 in Warwickshire. Traffic noise from the motorway is very audible but the beauty of the site and lakes more than makes up for it. Within a couple of hours we are used to the distant rumble and hardly seem to notice it. Makins is predominantly a... 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 →
I sit quietly at the storage yard amongst a multitude of other 'Memory Boxes.' Most used regularly, loved and polished. Other boxes sit amongst us lonely and unloved, desperate for care and attention. My fridge is switched on and filled, blinds opened. Steadies wound up, The Volvo reverses slowly, the hitch lowers and clicks into... Continue Reading →
When I look at the average caravan door I am always amazed how flimsy the door lock assembly appears. In most cases I imagine it would be possible to open a door with one hard pull.

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 →
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 →
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 →
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 →
