Oh my word😮 is everybody going to Norfolk next week?! I’ve think I’ve counted at least three others heading that way. Tammygirl, JVB66, Oneputt and us! DavidKlyne’s just left. The weather looks good until Thursday. See you all there. 😊

Decent H/S pitches with a smashing view across Wharfedale to Middleham and the hills behind. And that's just for starters.😁

As we were not going to be going until Thursday we've now decided to go somewhere else.
We will go to Norfolk just not next weekend.
Now thinking of going to the Cotswolds, (Malvern ) then onto Devises. After that it might be Commons Wood (to visit my brother) then if Norfolk is dry we will go there
Can't decide which of the 2 sites at Sandringham we should use, if its dry can we cycle around the estate?

Visited Kipling Hall today as the last time we were there was 16 yrs ago....doesn't time fly. Because of all the rain that's fallen over here the lake had flooded part of the path so we were unable to do the full circuit of it. Instead,we took in the Halloween Trail through the woods before lunch. Went round the house in the afternoon where there were plenty of well informed volunteers, including one who has written and had published a book on the last owner.
More rain late afternoon and evening. Off to watch "His Dark Materials" now.

We visited the International Bomber Command Centre today. The weather was foggy with the sun trying to peek through. Standing at the memorial, looking across to Lincoln Cathedral was surreal. The cathedral was only just visible through the fog but highlighted by the sun. We had a guided tour and then walked around the memorial stands to find the name of my uncle. Considering it’s located on the outskirts of town, with all the traffic travelling past, it’s a very calming quiet place. A place for contemplation.

The C&CC site is a bit nearer the House. However the CMC is virtually all hardstandings. ONly ever stayed at the CMC site but walked by the other one a few times. BTW I think the house is closed now but the cafe is still open.

Hope you lot arrive in the Eastern Counties in good orderly fashion and after the approved times as well

Finally got an appointment with Diabetes Dolly for my 6 monthly review, thanking 'eavens its not too urgent -- 17th December at 2:40 -- still I should be well prepared for 'Celebration Times' to follow even if she's given me a good kicking

CY, that shows the power of advertising, I remember that fairly short lived advert too. It was withdrawn apparently 'cos people were associating that brand of ciggy with 'Loners' - not a desirable trait in that industry, but I never knew anybody who smoked them though

Glad you went for taking MH off site DK. Providing you aren’t connected to too much, and travel fairly light, it’s quite easy. Most NT properties have huge car parks, often nowadays with dedicated MH parking. Similar with some EH and HHA properties as well. We always find it really nice enjoying a lunch in lovely surroundings, but in the warmth and comfort of our own little holiday home. It means we use travel days as doing days as well, rather than just heading for site to set up. Not booked yet, but may be using Seacroft for first time ever as base for going into Norwich. Taking your advice of using train.

Thanks DK, will probably use the C&CC site. Price is much better than C&MC
grass pitches are all out of use with C&CC now so no problem.
On our 3rd site now C&CC at Malvern. Both here and Moffat are £16pn for 2 adults, car and caravan. Meathrop was over £20pn
Good drive down the M6, just a bit of slow traffic around the roadworks. Weather was wet as we left Cumbria however we did get packed up in the dry. Bright sunshine now and again on the journey down and lovely as we arrived here, rain shower later on though.

Hi TG, decided to have a look at the forum to see where you ended up today! So it was Malvern, as you were thinking of last night.
It was nice to meet you at Meathop yesterday and put a face to the name.
Weather here today quite wet this morning, this afternoon we went to the VW dealer in Lindale to have a very small job done, then parked in Grange and had a walk along the prom both ways, and a mooch round the shops, mostly in the dry!
Tomorrow forecast to be dry (ish!) so going for a longer walk.
Enjoy Malvern.

Hi Ina, yes we went with last nights plan
Glad you managed to get out for a walk today, we liked Grange when we went the other day, it must be lovely in good weather will have to go back again.
Nice to meet you and OH too, its great to bump into folk from CT.
Hoping to get out tomorrow, its raining again just now
hope this isn't a mistake.
Enjoy your walk

TG. One problem with the C&CC site is that it is a long way to the bus whereas the C&MC site has stops right outside the gate. Enjoy Malvern. I hope the weather improves for you.
