after 11 years, 4 caravans lots of lovely sites, couple of rubbish ones and goodness knows how many miles covered, we have thrown in the towel on touring.
Oldest 2 are 18 & 16 and tbh it was becoming a chore taking them anywhere recently as they moaned constantly about the rain,wifi,being cramped,nothing to do (even though there was plenty)
so with that in mind we have bought a static on the site where our van was on a seasonal pitch. its lovely and fits our family perfectly.

maybe in future years we will get a wee 2 berth when its just the 2 of us and rediscover the bug, providing I can still buy a car capable of towing by that time.
so may thanks to you all for all the help,tips,advice and words of comfort you have given me the last 11 years. You are a fantastic bunch on here and I wish you all the best.

All the very best, my friend.
I know the touring side of things hasn’t been easy for you all over the past few years.
Here’s to your new approach to “camping”, and it bringing you all smiles, laughter, and tranquility.
