Are you saying the Caravan Club over-charge members for car insurance? Surely not. The price must surely be fair if other members insure through the club.

I seem to be seeing double on your posts, Ian and I'm sure it's not because of Christmas Eve drink!

Unfortunately, I don't seem to have that kind of money, Ian. I'm sure it must be lovely to stay there and have all that service though!

I have never been convinced the Caravan Club offer good value for car insurance. My insurance is due in January so I got a few quotes. SAGA £230, CC £370, how can there be so much difference?

That does seem a big difference, David. Maybe I should have shopped around.

It's ages since I looked at hotel prices, Ian. As long as I have a caravan, there isn't any need for a hotel! The last time we stayed in a hotel was for one night in March 2015 before we got the new caravan and it cost £70 for just one night. Now I'm paying £13 a night in site fees because of using the caravan. A lot less!

I woke up early this morning. Daylight has arrived now but grey skies
Feeling a bit more refreshed this morning having spent most of yesterday falling asleep! On the day before Christmas Eve, we managed to buy a small frozen turkey from Tesco that fits our oven so no problem to make a proper Christmas dinner with all the trimmings! Christmas pud as well plus cheese and biscuits.

Merry Christmas Malcolm, enjoy your Turkey. We are off for a walk later and then to see mum in the nursing home. Christmas dinner for us isn't, till about 8:00 pm, as youngest son is a chef and busy cooking others Christmas dinners until then.

We watched Lady in the Van on BBC. It was on from 9 p.m. to 10.40 p.m. Did anyone else on here watch it? I was expecting a comedy so was rather disappointed in what seemed a depressing story of a homeless elderly lady living in squalor. I remember Maggie Smith in a far more entertaining role in the Best Exotic Marigold Hotel. Being Christmas Eve, I think I would have preferred something a bit more light hearted!

This morning we drove into Findon using the Smart Car to post a letter in the post box outside the post office. I was surprised that there was still some traffic on the Long Furlong road outside the campsite but much less than on normal days. It's the first time out in the car since finishing work on 23rd evening. Too tired to go out anywhere yesterday!

Christmas lunch is cooking as I type this and will be ready soon with a pack of 12 pigs in blankets. The bread sauce is being made too and turkey gravy. For veg we have brussel sprouts, roast potatoes, roast parsnips and carrots. Sage and onion stuffing with the turkey too. I won't have anything to drink until tonight as we need to go out this afternoon to visit my cousin and collect our mail which means another drive in the Smart Car down Long Furlong into Goring.

Have been to a Geocaching event in Colchester Castle Park this morning. Just a small picnic in the park with lots of Christmas Faye. Christmas with my family has been cancelled as everyone is ill with this flu like bug that is doing the rounds so we are going to in-laws instead. Merry Christmas everyone.

I've just woken up from an afternoon nap after feeling rather full from the Christmas lunch. We met the neighbours from the neighbouring caravan and they were cooking turkey crown for their Christmas lunch. We decided to leave the Christmas pudding until later this evening after we return from visiting our cousin. We've got Yule log and mince pies as well as plenty of assorted cheeses and biscuits. So plenty to be going on with for the next few days!
