    Looks very nice CY. Quite compact as well, same as us with our storage box on the back. We have few parking problems with ours when out and about, bit of research, eye for best spot. Fixed bed as well, very nice.

    We have perfected the art of putting our bed down in extreme weather, with all occupants staying inside. No mean feat in a small MH with two big pooches! But sometimes a fixed bed arrangement crosses my thoughts!laughing

    We are just back from our weekend away at ayr craigie CC thats two weekends in a row we have been there but its a nice site and only 35 mins from home so very handy. Weather was good yesterday so made dinner on the Cadac. Next trip out in the van is in two weeks when we are booked on to Berwick Seaview CC for a long weekend. Hope everyone else is having a nice weekend too

    It seems we are in the teeth of the gales here on the north Devon coast, and the forecast is for it to get worse!

    We have had lashing rain since early morning, so plans to go to the beach and to Ilfracombe have been cancelled.  frown

    Rain has now eased slightly so we may get out for a short time soon.

    Malc....I must say that is some seriously dodgy arithmetic you are using if you think you are saving £600 over 6 weeks!

    That is only quite recently though Malcolm as before this latest company you "work" for your long suffering wife was the one doing the "work" as in your words in previos posts she did the deliveries as you had to stay with the car because of problems "parking" at customersundecided

    Yes, a very sad state of affairs, especially in flats and the lift not working frown I suppose carrying boxes and bags, Nordic poles are out of the question innocent

    A miserable wet day here. On Sundays we only do the essential work - i.e.05:00 to 08:30 and then 15:00 to 18:30. Give or take a few hours.

    There's been two calvings today - more or less 12 hours apart (3 in the morning and 3 in the afternoon).

    It's not just cows here - there's also cats! Here's our three kittens posing for the camera.

    That's right! She prefers me to work for this company for that reason! Previously, she was having difficulty finding time for caravan chores.

    All that exercise keeps me fit though! This job could well be the answer to a healthier life!

    It's been wet and windy here all afternoon. It's just as well that there was plenty to read in todays Sunday papers to keep me amused whilst sitting out this miserable weather in the awning.

    The Majestic is a dealer special. Based on the Elddis Accordo and fitted with the kit that the Accordo should really have anyway.

    No. We don't have any scales in the caravan. Anyhow, one week of my confinement has already gone so only 5 weeks left!

    It seems to be getting windier and colder. The noise of the wind in the awning is getting louder. So I've made my way inside the caravan and put the heating on. It wasn't long ago when we needed air-conditioning, now it's heating!

    No shopping this evening, Tesco Extra is closed which means an earlier evening meal for us. It's being cooked at the moment. Fish cakes with veg followed by apple crumble and custard for pudding.

    Best of luck on Tuesday CY and also with the new van.

    We are here at Sandringham.  The roads were a bit busy getting here as it is The Sandringham Country and Game Fair .  We hadn't realised until we saw the sign at the side of the road on the A47. The site is full but as we arrived at 12.15 we got a good choice of pitches and have found a nice corner pitch. The weather is a bit iffy - grey and chilly with blustery showers.

    Good luck from me too CY, hope everything works out well and you can get out on the road once more.

    Have a good time at Sandringham Millie. We move on again tomorrow, further north before we turn for home. It's been nice to do some touring, will be going over the Tomintoul route next, more good scenery. smile

    No, JVB66,  she had finished all the chores by that time and she has been following the series ever since it was first broadcast. So we both watched it together!
