Luxembourg City … for FREE

Before we traveled to Luxembourg everybody joked that we had to purchase all our provisions before entering as it was so expensive. Well, our experience is the total opposite, during the (least expensive of the trip) campsite 'check in' the receptionist had said, "Here's your pitch, here's the toilets, public transport is free, do you...

Day 2 – Guignicourt

We sleep till 9am and probably could have slept longer but the heat inside the van is starting to get too much. Door thrown open and in floods… more hot air. It looks like it’s going to be a beautiful day. Today is going to be a day on the tandem, which is probably just... Continue Reading →

Day 1 Guignicourt

A 5.30am start can only mean one thing, we’re off on holiday again. Shower and a strong cup of tea whilst randomly chucking the odd forgotten item in a bag for life, I’m guaranteed to have forgotten something. We fuelled the car yesterday and discovered that the road to our caravan storage is closing for... Continue Reading →

The Netherlands Part 3

Just over a two hour drive back to the site we started on last week. This is our fourth stay here, it’s a nice site, perfect for the beach, cycling and sightseeing. We set up very quickly as we didn’t really put anything away, we just dropped it all in bags for life and put... Continue Reading →

The Netherlands Part 2

Bit of a lazy start this morning. We’ve got till 12pm to depart so we do a slow pack up even going to the trouble of unpacking the kettle to brew up part way through. The motor mover came into its own getting off the pitch, it’s not often we use it but we got... Continue Reading →

A Rainy Day In

Still in The Netherlands, we woke to a hazy world with a BBC promise of less than a 40% chance of light showers over lunchtime. Forever the optimist, and the fact that I was about to put on my last pair of clean knickers, off I stomped with a bag for life full of dirty... Continue Reading →

The Netherlands

On a cold, wet, windy, autumn morning in June, we loaded the car, hoisted the tandem onto the roof and hitched the caravan onto the back. It’s been 11 months since we last took the caravan out and we were a little nervous. This car hadn’t towed before, the tow ball was newly sanded and... Continue Reading →

Sunny Last Days in The Netherlands

Sunday afternoon was forecast the heavy storms that the UK had seen the day before. Another lazy start as that’s what happens on holiday, The Boss was lazy too and rode 40 miles, so we decided to stay put today. Not really a fan of being out in a storm we settled ourselves on pitch... Continue Reading →

An afternoon in Sluis

A really lazy start to the day for me. The Boss was up and pedalling early doors, he had a fixed car to collect 20 miles away so set off on his road bike in his civvies and normal shoes 'and' his debit card. I took advantage and had a slow start to my day.... Continue Reading →

Bruges Day & Beach Day

After the car fiasco yesterday, we slept better than we’ve slept in a long time. Good old Red Pennant, have been better than we could have hoped for. The car was towed away to a local garage, owner Carlo is convinced he can fix it, hopefully in a few days. Red Pennant have been in... Continue Reading →
