Leaving Ferry Meadows Caravan and Motorhome Club Site early did come with one downside, we had planned to refuel the car. '80 miles remaining' the dashboard informed us, down to 75 by the barrier, 65 by the road and 'so on' until it settled at 40 by the A1. The Volvo computer had sussed it... Continue Reading →
"Is that Spire twisted" I ask as we drive through Chesterfield towards the Chatsworth Caravan and Motorhome Club Site. "It is", he says smuggly, "It's why the football team are nicknamed the Spireites". Surely this defect should have been fixed at the 'snagging' stage. We are keen to see the site, it is busy all...

We arrived at Beechwood Grange CAMC Site yesterday in the bright, blindingly low winter sunshine. The sun visor had been up and down like a tart's knickers on the trip here. Due to lack of rain over the last few days the roads are drier than they've been for the rest of the trip so... Continue Reading →
Goodbye Wales and back to England. The day is dull, damp and grey. Oh the joys of caravanning in the winter. The roads are kind to us and the traffic flows easily. The roads towards the North West display their industry proudly in the mizzly gloom. Roads become familiar very quickly even though we are... Continue Reading →
Going back to our guy rope and tent peg days are a fond but dim and distant memory. Memories of holidays we could barely afford under canvas, we camped in all weathers even snow, with two young children. Even back in those days we used it as a way of meeting up with friends. A... Continue Reading →
I've done nowt but moan for the past few hours, nothing new there, according to The Boss. Since taking the awning down a few weeks ago, lifting the legs, hitching up and hitting the road and heading towards Burford we vowed we'd take the van off site and away again on our next available days...

You get what you pay for, right? One of the dilemmas we experienced on our recent six week holiday in Lanzarote was how we would get to the airport. Generally, we would stump up the money for the Long Stay car park and jump on the free shuttle bus to the airport. The Boss would... Continue Reading →
Throwing back the curtains reveals clear blue skies and wall to wall sunshine. Another glorious day in my little bit of paradise. Top of the Morning breakfast snaffled, complete with soda bread, white and black pudding. We find ourselves stuffing towels, water and sun cream into a bag. He's found one of the island's most...

There's a haze on the horizon, the sunshine is beating down and the waves are crashing in today. As we near the end of our winter break we'd promised ourselves a bit of down time. A bit of beach time. With two sunbeds and a parasol priced at 12€ for the day, we choose our... Continue Reading →
Looking back over 2017 and it's amazing how much we've packed into the year. Starting the year with ten days in Brighton. Brighton, a town I've always loved and we were blessed with crisp and clear weather. We got to meet up with fellow bloggers, Richard and Trevor, from (Get Your) Legs Down, went out...
