Re: What are you all up to
I have also heard that people taking blood thinners, those that need regular testing, also have difficulty with insurance?
DK - Speaking to various companies I found that the majority were using the same system as question and answers required were very similar. All of the companies weren't bothered about blood thinners if they were Aspirin or Clopodegrel, the 2 main thinners. I'm on Clopodegrel and nobody wanted further information about it.
@Oneputt - Enjoy your regular trip to Barleywood. Are the Ospreys early this year as you seem to get them on migration on the east coast earlier than we do.
Re: What are you all up to
arrived at Barleywood this afternoon and now being serenaded by Tawny Owls and Ospreys, the latter being a right pain as they transition right above the van

Re: What are the first three things you do when you've pitched up
For us it's normally a trip down to the local supermarket to buy something to eat for dinner. Then, if we are going to be staying longer and it's not yet dark outside, the next job after putting the awning up will be to set the satellite dish up and get the Wi-Fi connection to work. After all that and a 300 or so mile drive before arriving at the campsite I'll probably feel too knackered to do much else.

Re: Fitted sheets for island bed
Rather defeats the idea of having a fixed bed with easy to wash bedding though!

Re: I haven't used the new Club Together site...
If you want access for future updates then the best way to access it would be to go into Categories and Camping and Touring, pick CLs which would then have the most recent discussions listed. It should really be a sticky but it seems this new forum is incapable of it.
I'm not sure whether Johnny who looks after it will keep it going or not.
Re: 2025 Stork Webcam
Similarly, Wherenext, here in England they were originally considered the harbingers of new life and rebirth. Sadly a political spin was placed on this belief in the 17 century when they were then linked with the new ways and the rebellious activities of our Civil War. During this time many of these birds were slaughtered and persecuted which added to their demise.
Worryingly today falsehoods are still deliberately ‘used’ in similar ways to gain an advantage or leverage over others. For example, look at the ‘myths’ surrounding magpies, buzzards and hen harriers, the bad name they are given and their persecution.

Re: Towing caravan to la belle etoile SE Paris. Route ok?
Probably best to skirt around the east of Paris via C de G Airport and then make use of the A104. Other than under the runway at the airport I don't recall tunnels on that route?

Did you know…
Did you know the South West Division of the CAMC organises many caravan and motorhome events which are listed on our website for the whole of the South West?
Events range from a 2 night stay to 14 nights away, in a variety of locations, amongst enviable picturesque scenery and, the majority of the events are cheaper than staying on a Club Site!
These events will appeal to those who prefer to use their own onboard facilities,however, a selection of events are on sites with facilities but importantly they are for those who enjoy the countryside, beaches and pretty villages, a bit of peace and quiet or being social, the choice is yours.
Belonging to one of our Centres in the South West (or UK- wide) is included in your membership so why not visit our list of events and access ‘value for money’ weekends away, or holidays with (or without) children. I’m sure you’ll find an event that intrigues.
Any questions? click the Centre’s website for more info…!
I’ll check in from time to time with some specific events coming up in the South West.
Meanwhile, do let me, and our Club Together friends know when you’ve tried one of our 2025 events….we will look forward to hearing about your experiences 😊
