hi everyone,we bought our 1st caravan in august last year as we have 3year old twins and figured it will be a good way to make some happy memories for/with them...we have used the van a few times and even went to eurodisney setting off on xmas day!!!the roads were very quiet and we set off back new years day again very quiet.we loved towing through france even paris was easy.we used the ferry as it was cheaper for us.we have been away this year a couple of weekends but only local to us lancashire.we are finding its very difficult to utilise the van as with working full time we dont get the time unless its local for the weekend.i suppose we may even look at siting it next year but we will see how this year goes,also hope to make many new friends along the way...thanks for having us.....

well off to peppa pig land tonight,we will be staying in fareham and probably stopping in a off road layby around banbury area for a good sleep and then should arrive early and pick a decent pitch..we tried the awning for the first time last weekend in delamere forest and now we have decided to go for an air awning that will be a bit bigger.we are all still enjoying it but do find the dreaded work life gets in the way...CAN,T WAIT TO RETIRE  LOL......

Well, if you are down this neck of the woods, Rookesbury Park I presume, then there is Portsmouth Historic Dockyard, The Royal Armouries on the top of Portsdown Hill, Port Solent eateries and Portchester Castle all worth a visit. Local pub - The Roebuck. Used to be a Friday night regular spot but I haven't been for ages. Only half a mile through the woods to the A32.

"…and then should arrive early and pick a decent pitch.."

But not before the earliest stated arrival time, obviously. Goodness, we don't want to see more moans about early arrivals on here.😁
