Just had a ride out to Leisure Sales in the Cheshire countryside as we needed some more blue for the loo and cleaning stuff for the caravan (and also a bacon and egg sarni), and the amount of caravans on the road today.  I've seen more in a couple of hours
than I have in the whole of the summerHappy

    very close too Leisure sales.Happy

    We have been bookng sites in October and they look to be pretty full still and plenty on the roads. These days even basic caravans are pretty good in the cold so presumably this has encouraged more people to use the caravans for longer.

    But other half doesn't do cold and wet, so unless it's a good forecast at Half Term, that will be it for me, till spring Sad

    We were approaching the M6 slip road at Knutsford, and the tail back on the A56 as just after Mere Corner.  We turned round and went on the A50.  Took a bit longer, but would have been much longer had we decided to do M6 route
