Do you know Peter & May?
As new caravanners we took our Barcelona to Meathop Fell for our first major trip. (Meathop was super and the people superb). This expedition included our first experience of erecting the Isabella awning we had bought, and on which we had done considerable study of the parts and the operation.
If only this had helped! We struggled on for a while, but the Cavalry arrived from the neighbouring pitch, occupied by Peter and May. Over the next hour we learned a lot about putting up awnings, but a lot more about the wonderful people you meet on Club sites.
If anyone knows these owners of a Swift van, with whom we did exchange contact details, but which have been misplaced then please pass on my e-mail of jeff.bell691@gmail.com.
Wishing you all a lovely 2013.
