Good morning Broadway! One last shift and then our time here is done. Two amazing, challenging, tough seasons have come to an end. Awake bright and early, well dark and early as the chemical toilet tank is full and I’m busting for a wee. Pulling on my work fleece I troop across to our compound... Continue Reading →
Malvern Hills, Rain, Rain, Go Away
I’ve hoovered, I’ve dusted. I’ve emptied the cupboards and changed the bedding. I cleaned and stocked the fridge and given the bathroom a wipe over. I found the remote for the motor mover and remembered to shove the cadac in the boot. One more sleep and one more shift. Work flew by in a haze... Continue Reading →
Brighton – First Trip of 2020
We've been home for too long, 5 days is a long time. Trying to get my head round what to pack and my brain is going into meltdown. I'm bound to forget something. We've chucked a couple of bags in the car and still wandering around the house and garage staring blindly at piles of... Continue Reading →

Hooray Henleys

Towing the Home from Home, Home
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 →
Bailey of Bristol – A Caravan Factory Tour

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 →
The New Bailey Unicorn – Launch Event
Having been invited across to Swindon for the Bailey of Bristol 4th generation Unicorn launch we are heading on a mixture of motorway and countryside roads. I silently curse myself as the sky gets greyer and greyer the nearer we get. Always a lover of looking inside different caravans, I'm excited by today. I'm more... Continue Reading →
Longleat – A Winter Wonder
To celebrate getting old I've gone down to a 3 day working weekend. Having worked Mondays since the age of 16 this is my first Monday off. Time to prepare for our trip to Longleat Caravan Club Site tomorrow. The Boss started work at silly O'Clock this morning and walks through the door just before 11am... Continue Reading →
Lashings of Ginger Beer and the Not so Famous Five
For 15 years we have warned our children about meeting people they have found on the internet. So today we are off to Cirencester Caravan Club Site to meet some people that we have met on, yes, the Internet. If this is our very last blog you know why, although if it is published we...
