What are you all up to

Debsc, that sounds very encouraging. Major step forwards in medical science are being made all the time. Hopefully it provides a better quality of life. With all the negative talk about AI I do wonder if in the field of medical science it could make a big difference for the better.

Cool enough today for me to wash the car, which was badly needed! I am in the process of selling a lot of the old motorhome stuff on Facebook selling groups and Marketplace. Had a few successes but also a bit of stress.  Its fine when you get one person wanting something but we have just sold the Avtex TV and had several people interested. The couple that purchased it travelled 50 miles and so I didn't feel I could offer it to others until they come to view. Some people can be persistent and I have just had to tell them to form an orderly queue!

We've had the same David but with caravan stuff. We had 13 enquiries for an awning but told everyone after the first that a sale had been agreed but buyer was picking it up today as she was a nurse on shifts. We did promise to get back to them if sale fell through but would have gone in enquiry received order. It is a bit stressful as I'm not used to being wedded to my mobile all day. Nurse duly turned up and bought it. 

Could do with a mass clear out as we need the space in the garage.

It was interesting having a chat with her. She was on a covid ward during the pandemic and said it took a lot out of her. Made her realise about enjoying life while you can. 

Busy day here, starting with a trip to the recycling centre with multiple bags and crates of garden rubbish, followed by a short shopping trip. I then got the caravan cleaned outside this afternoon and prior to our evening meal we stripped wallpaper from a wall in our entrance hall, and then I washed down with the paintwork around the doors in preparation for painting tomorrow. In between we managed to fit In 5 walks out with Flyte so far, with another in a few minutes time. It has been much cooler with a strong breeze this morning, although the sun did come out at times and it warmed up then.

Hope that the trial is a success for your granddaughter, Debs.

I haven't have a problem with the booking system, fortunately, TTDA.  Booked a site last night... all set for a short break at Pandy CAMC site.... although I read reports of variable pitch sizes.  No doubt all will become clear in due course..

Glorious sunny day here today. We bought a new BBQ last week and haven’t had a chance to use it yet so today might be the day if the weather is still like this later on. Planning on moving the caravan to the middle of the drive later and give it a good clean including the roof then we can begin packing for our main 3 week summer trip we are due to leave at the end of the week just hoping the weather is nice down south.

Hope everyone else is having a nice weekend 

I’ve been very surprised by the size of pitches on Club Sites we have recently visited, very generous. (Cayton Bay, Clumber, Burrs) Mind we are only a small MH, so don’t need a huge amount of space really. Enjoy Pandy, not a site we know.🙂

We've always been happy with the size of pitches on CAMC sites.  I do have an issue with hardstanding pitches on the C&CC sites, when the custom on some sites (eg. Conkers C& CC) seems to be: caravan & awning on the hardstanding, but park your car on the grass!!  Just never 'got' that....  The car is what you'll need to move more frequently, in all probability.  Just a bit of rain is all you need to start churning up the grass.  I'd be in favour of them extending their HS to include the car....

The only time we stayed at Pandy we had a phone call from our eldest son, at 19,  with his A Level results which were good enough to get him into UCL, he's 47 now!!! Pitches do vary in size but generally serviced pitches are generally pretty good. I think some of the newer C&CC sites are getting larger hardstandings.

 Rather a poor day weather wise, with mist in the morning and drizzly rain until late afternoon. It did brighten up later but too late for me to contemplate any outside jobs. However if did mean that I could get the painting of the door surrounds in the hall done prior to papering a wall tomorrow.

Just returned from a weekend staying on a Yorkshire Vineyard and brewery. Small campsite, music night, cafe and tour of the vineyard. Good value in my view and a recommended stay particularly when they have those event weekends.

Nun Monkton is also worth a walk around, pretty little village near the river with lots of history, just a short stroll from the site..
