Hello, Bob and Jenny. You're literally half a mile from us! The Mrs saw you in town today as she drove through and got a big dose of celebrity excitement. We have been very restrained in not calling round to say hello. 😆. Only joking. I'm glad we had nice weather in Teesdale for the start of your trip. Take care, Rich and Claire.

We love Scotland and know the M6 pretty well, wonderful once you get past Liverpool and all the traffic. We always stay at Kendal on the way up, a small site called Ashes Caravan Park, just off junction 37 on the M6, its open all year. Small but very scenic! We are off to Shropshire next week had a job booking sites as everywhere full and no room for a tag axle! Stopping at Chapel Lane to see our daughter in Brum first!

We tend not to go to Bernard Castle as we had to do a round trip 4 - 5 times a week including Saturdays when the grandson was in Rugby , Football, and Tennis Tournaments right next door to Bowes Museum . It was wearing for years. Raby Castle 🏰 is at Staindrop. You could have got a reasonably priced meal at Walworth Castle at Darlington. A trip to Sedgefield to George Bolams Farm Food Shop , for deep filled home made Lamb and mint pies 🥧 is worthwhile it’s just off the A19/A1.

You’ll never please everyone….. just thought you should know that you’re pleasing me and Suze 😂👌. Thanks for your efforts mate 🙏☕️🙌

Really enjoying your videos, entertaining and full of good information. We do have one question, how do you get water from the Aquaroll into the van? Our Knaus CUV only has a water fill point unlike our previous caravans which had a power supply in the water inlet to allow a Whale pump to be connected.

It is designed to reduce harmful emissions of nitrogen oxides (NOx) from diesel vehicles to non-hazardous gases, in order to comply with more stringent emission standards.*

Looks like the start of a great trip hope you have good weather and a brilliant time. Just on a personal note over the past 2 years of caravanning during lock down we have noticed a lot of people who have no idea of how to behave on site, we seem to be getting the magaluf set who normally leave their children in the children's club while the adults get gradually inebriated. hence we should have been booked into Putts Corner at the beginning of October for 1 week but have now changed to a cl we have previously used, generally less noisy children. have you noticed any difference as you stay away more than us ?
