Heading into our tenth week here at Burrs Country Park. The season is racing by at a speed of knots that I’m finding hard to keep up with. A lady on site said hello today, she said they’d decided to come to Burrs after following my blog. Then the penny dropped, I need to get... Continue Reading →
Been on site nearly a week now, we’re all set up and back to work. Our day off happened to fall on a day when North West Electricity planned to turn our power off for a few hours to do some work off site. Kettle filled, fridge flicked to gas, time to decide what to... Continue Reading →
Falling behind in getting the words out of my fingers into the blog. Lack of caravan time this last couple of years has given me little motivation to write. We’ve been back home now a couple of weeks and it feels like a lifetime ago. Our one and only holiday this year, 4 nights at... Continue Reading →
17 days working at Burrs Country Park flew by in the blink of an eye. Having only worked March till November before, I toughed it out and carried on wearing my shorts. Not sure if that was a good idea or not, the weather we’ve had has been inclement to say the least. I suppose... Continue Reading →
6 weeks ago, on site at Broadway, toilet clean just finished, cuppa in hand, a quiet moment to check the emails. There’s a couple regarding training, one saying we’d had a parcel delivered and another asking for short term winter cover at a couple of sites. Working just over an 8 month contract away from...

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 →
We forgot the table, the Aqua roll handle, his crocs and I seem to be missing one lot of my tablets. We do this time, have my white bra if that’s any consolation. As per usual with our planning we woke to the greyist of skies and that fine stuff that wets you through. Bin... Continue Reading →
Felt strange waking naturally on our first morning to peace and quiet. No noise, just birdsong. Falling out of bed into our own shower rather than bumbling along to the toilet block, I think this might be the way to go for us. Curls scrunched and air dried, butties and a generous chunk of pork... Continue Reading →
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 →
Back to work in anticipation of opening on the 12th and we’ve been busy little bees. With sites having been closed since Christmas there’s been a lot to do. The pitch markers are scrubbed and back in place. The bollards are washed and ready for electric leads. We’ve filled the bird feeders more than once... Continue Reading →
