OH is a bit of a fair weather camper but he has just agreed me, the dogs and our lad can go off in April while he stays at home and does the decorating. He can tow us and bugger off! yayyyyy, ten weeks to go!

At the moment it's North Devon at Easter just getting used to not being an hour from the lakes so it's late this year.

Then the lakes in May to finally do Scafell Pike but not sure what else this year yet.

Why not tow yourself? Think of the freedom

We came back this afternoon from our first trip of the year - Friday to Sunday on a small CS on the east coast near Bridlington. It rained most of the time and the weather by the sea was distinctly bracing but it's always good to be away for the weekend.

We have got a total of 10 weeks booked for this season, but nothing until my birthday in spring, we are about to upgrade our towcar, so until that and a couple of other family things are sorted we are staying put at home.

Not such a bad thing, as at least by then our next youngest will have moved back home to look after our elderly dog who hates travelling in her old age bless her, shes 14 and can no longer jump in and out of the car, and shes too heavy to lift.

Only Easter booked but we will be away before then, once we get our higher fence and new alarm system fitted after our burglary. Our Christmas holiday should have extended into New Year...anyway, sometime in February or March we will be going to a CL near Horncastle and then lots more hopefully.

It may be February but should definitely be March :)

Nothing booked for those months yet though, our first actual booking is in July for Tour De France, also a week in August. Should have Easter and June booked soon too.

Where to Anne, West Ashby?

Only live a couple of miles from there, and used to fish sometimes. Were probably off to Ravenscar for a long weekend in March, hopefully !
