We’ve had some wonderful weather this summer and have enjoyed lots of weekends away and days out in the sunshine, making the most of exploring the UK; so it was typical that the weekend of our New Forest adventure the heavens decided to open and the sun did not appear at any point during our stay (well not until 11am on…
So, a few years ago my wife Emma said we should get a campervan. I wasn’t keen, “It’ll cost too much money”; “Will we actually use it?”; blah, blah, blah… However, the idea kept floating around in my mind and gradually I started to think that it would be kind of cool to come home from work on a Friday, throw some things in…

The 22 September arrived and it signalled the start of our second road trip of the year. In June we spent three weeks touring the west coast of America in an RV and now we were to spend another three weeks touring Scotland with our caravan. Our intention was to travel east to west exploring the North Coast 500 route before…
After our sojourn in the Tees Valley we made the relatively short journey further north to the CMC Old Hartley site just north of Whitley Bay. Our last visit to this site was nine years ago although it has not changed much except the two rows of paving on each pitch have been replaced by a quite large gauge of gravel. Our…
During the second week of September we headed up to the North East of England to Stockton on Tess as the start of a mini tour. Our first port of call was the CMC site White Water Park near the Tees Barrage. I think this site is one of the best CMC site we have stayed on in terms of site design. Just across from the site…
Last month I was horrified when our 2016 Swift Bolero had been stolen in the night off our drive. I thought that I would never see her again, however I was lucky as I had paid my renewal subs for the fitted tracker. I phoned Tracker & they turned the signal on, I was very surprised an hour later the police called me to say…
Sunday 29 July Having witnessed some of the tail backs in the lanes to the A38 this week we wanted to get away nice and early from our site in South Hams. We hitched up in bright sunshine and were on the road by 8.30am en route to our next site In North Cornwall. We towed down the A38, over the Tamar Bridge and into…
Just had a lovely weekend break at the Wharfedale site. This story starts on the Sunday morning that we are leaving. The sun is shining, birds are singing. The caravan is packed up and the next job is to hitch up for the tow home. I pull out the motor mover remote, power up and.... nothing. No life, the remote turns on,…
Having spent a very nice time at the start of our vacation close to Holy Island, near Bamburgh, our holidays bliss was violently shuddered to an abrupt halt as we were involved in a wing mirror spat on a minor road. Our assailant being a bouncy bumbling motor-home which was being driven at speed and seemingly controlled…
