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...

2019 started with a bang, 6 weeks this time in Lanzarote. 6 whole weeks of nothing but sunshine and recharging our batteries in readiness for our season at Longleat. The Jellybeans flew out and had a lovely week with us too. Just days after the plane hitting the tarmac at Gatwick we are hitching up... 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 →
Having spent the first forty years of my life in Bolton, it will always hold a special place in my heart. All my memories are there.

On our way back to the caravan we stopped off to have a look at the Folly in Williamson Park in Lancaster. Whilst the Folly... Continue Reading →
We walked out of the chippy unable to speak, we had tears in our eyes. It was not the price or an Atlantic Cod shortage causing this emotional moment, we had just said goodbye to Mr Chow, proprietor of Chow's Chippy, Blackburn Road, Bolton, Lancashire. The Boss has enjoyed Chips 'n' a Chat for thirty... Continue Reading →
Sitting only a short walk from the River Ribble, this site is not to be confused with the Caravan and Camping Club site just across the road. Located directly behind the Edisford Bridge pub, the site is landlocked by farmland and the road. Whilst there is road noise, the road is not a busy one... Continue Reading →
Clitheroe used to be one of our favourite tent 'getaways', finishing work on a Friday afternoon as the kids left school, everything chucked in the Ford Fiesta boot and forty minutes later arriving at the Caravan and Camping Club site on the edge of town by Edisford Bridge. That was fifteen to twenty years ago... Continue Reading →
It's been tippling it down all night. The rain was so loud we struggled to sleep in the caravan last night. Splashing through the footbath, sorry the awning to the shower block, The Boss decides we need to go out later to escape this rain cloud that has decided to spend it's holiday with us. ...
