Malpais de La Rasca

“It’s cloudy” he said. “Let’s go for a walk” he said. I thought he meant the little loop I’d created, down to the seafront and back up again, possibly popping into one of the little cafes mid route for refreshments and a bit of people watching, no. He had different plans. I wanted something sedate... 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 →

A Taste of the North

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 →

Out and About in the Malvern Hills

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 →

A Very Quiet Easter Weekend

We thought that our Easter experience last year was a one off, little did we know as we chomped on Easter eggs on an empty site back in 2020 that history would be repeating itself one year on! If you’d have told me back at the start of 2020 that I’d see two Easters on... 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

We said goodbye to the Motorhome Chit Chats in the rain, wound the legs up and ventured towards our last stop of our winter break, Henley Four Oaks Caravan and Motorhome Club Site. Dodging the rain drops we make it to site in good time and a break in the rain clouds. We are informed... Continue Reading →

Chatsworth – A Deer Do

"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...

Capability Brown’s Pleasure Walk in Longleat

A well deserved day off started off with a little bit of a lie in. Needed a wee so much though that I had to get up at 8am. There's a bit of a nip in the air as I dash from the awning to the loo wrapping my dressing gown around me, hoping no-one's... Continue Reading →

Sgwd yr Eira – who’s that moaning at the back

He tells me if it's worth seeing it's worth some trouble getting there. The Four Falls Walk in the Brecon Beacons, Wales certainly served up a hidden gem today, although personally, I would have gladly teleported there for the experience. Not that I complained, well, no more than once every 30 seconds or so, had... Continue Reading →
