Best Of
Hello everyone!
Hi everyone, I'm Olivia Mayes, Apprentice Social Media Executive at the Caravan and Motorhome Club. I've been with the Club for over a year now and have been loving it so far!
I will helping Rowena on Club Together from time-to-time, so wanted to introduce myself. I'm really looking forward to contributing on here!

Re: What are you all up to
Belated birthday wishes @DEBSC - sounds like you had a nice day. Pleased to hear that your foot problem is a bit better @Bakers2 . Lovely photos David @DSB and @nelliethehooker. I'm starting to get itchy feel and feeling a little bit frustrated because we aren't going away this month. Still, been waiting long enough for the hospital appointment, so I will be pleased to get that out of the way and hopefully, have some answers as to what's wrong.
Not away again until 14 August which seems ages away😢 - however - as posted elsewhere, I have managed to secure a serviced pitch at Sandringham for Christmas😀. Just need to fill in the bits in between!
Re: What’s your favourite way to keep kids entertained on long journeys?
Brilliant! Love these suggestions - some great ideas to while away those travel hours! 🙂

That’s why they end up dropping a clanger, not enough proper research done. 👍
Re: What’s your favourite way to keep kids entertained on long journeys?
Never travelled much with children, but we do have a few ways of keeping ourselves entertained…….(we are big kids🤭) You might need to adapt for age range of course
On motorways…Lorry Cricket! You get one run for who spots a supermarket lorry first, then you can allocate different run totals to other companies such as Norbert Dentresangle, Frigoscandia, Eddie Stobert, etc….. For us, the six was a Preston’s of Potto South of Sheffield!🤣
Variation, and a lot more fun…….Pub Cricket! A run for every leg in the pub name, so Fox and Goose would be six, you are on a winner with Coach and Horses, particularly if the pub has a sign showing a four in hand and passengers up top🤩 Extra run for things like a Unicorn’s Horn, Two extra runs for The Stags Head (antlers🤣) etc…… you might need a referee and someone keeping count though🤣🤣
Older children…….Radio Charades. Think of a film, then give a word clue puzzle. Example….one word film, clue ”pleased to have dined off a woman”………answer…..Gladiator🤣🤣🤣 it took my OH 30 mins to get that one🤭
Alternate names……..go through the alphabet, each person playing has to give a girls name, or a boys name, a bird a castle or big house or if you are oldies like us, car marques, so A is Allegro, B is Berlingo, C is Cortina, etc…… each player has to find a name for each letter, so it can get really hard.
We have whiled away some ten hour driving days with stuff like this🤭
Re: Yorkshire Dealership Recommendations
The OP seems to be collecting info across forums but I’ve yet to hear of him viewing a van or even asking about specific vans. It’s all rather vague at present.
Re: How to post photos on new discussion
The big leaves in bottom photo looks similar to mine TTDA SO POSSIBLY mine could be a Hollyhock …..
Re: How to post photos on new discussion
Then I think it is a hollyhock. It'll flower soon and confirm one way or the way. If you don't like it, you can pull it up before the seeds develop. I love mine, nice against a fence or wall, especially if you have a variety of colours.
ThThese Were growing in the crack between the garden boundary and the road opposite of holiday cottage in Norfolk. Not quite outback in June.
