You were camping near me. Did you stop on the centenary site? I live in Highcliffe xx

Well done Helen. It must have been very daunting the first time but worth it xx

Good on you Helen and you are marvellous 🤩 glad you had a lovely time and all went to plan (except for the bit of rain)! 😍 xxx

Helen you made the caravan look cozy and inviting. Oh I wish you and Rob many happy adventures. 😊

I hope you pulled in to let traffic behind you pass. Most of them and motorhome drivers never use their mirrors. And uninterested what’s behind them. Good luck. Snd don’t be like the arrogant ones.

Lovely video again, thank you. Everything looked so sporty and fresh with your gorgeous white skirt and trainers. ❤

Gold stars to you both it looks fab and Bertha is looking very classy!!

I love that pink top ❤

There is nothing you have shared with us on youtube that you don't make exciting and fun. Thanks Helen Mary jo.🙂

Thanks for taking us on holiday with you, I think we all had a lovely time!

All the tee shirts look great with the white skirt/trainers. I like that they are lighter weight that the SeaSalt - easier to tuck in and more Summery. Prefer the slim teeshirts to the blouse, as the fit is much more flattering on your shape. The cardigan does look a little high on the neck - although it makes me hot just looking at it. Yes, would look good over a black dress. The second cardi looks nicer - more polished, but again to me they are too much for Summer (but great for Spring and Autumn).

Absolutely lovely & well done to you 🎉⛱️ love your outside chairs 🪑 please could you share where they are from 🏕️

Glad you had fun - and that all your hard work paid off.

The caravan looks lovely hope you enjoy your time in the caravan , hope Dolly enjoys it

I'm glad you suggested using the oven as a bread bin ! I've got some long life goats milk to store ( goats milk supplies are erratic now ) I shall put it in my big oven and think of you . I hardly use the oven / grill now because I've got an airfryer . Certainly not in this weather !

So glad you had a good trip. I'm sure setup will be easier the more you do it. You put so much thought into how to contain everything. And what a great bonus to be able to have your grandkids there and to visit with your other son. Looks you are living your best life. So happy to see you being the driver, none of the women in my family ever did that.

Yes well done you I was never brave enough when we had our van, now I’ve lost my husband how I wish I had done it, but I no longer have a caravan, might treat myself to a campervan . The 16 years of caravanning were the best years of our lives, enjoy yours, life’s too short ❤️

Very well done

Another ‘well done’ from me Helen, not just for towing but also for transforming Bertha into a home from home. Loved seeing everything in its place and looking good. Billy and Hattie will always remember these days away with you and Rob, and how lovely that their cousins can join them now they are closer to you. Dear Dolly - couldn’t quite make out what she was thinking on this occasion, bewilderment ? 😂 x

Glad you enjoyed your trip and we take a fan heater that does hot and cold which is really useful x

Your caravan so homey and comfortable . Enjoy your little break.

Lovely videos you are so clever pulling the caravan and it looks like a lot of work setting everything up, but once done you are sorted. Loved your dress and your hair up too. X

fun!

Your caravan looks great with the new curtains and cute bunting ! Love the rack that fits on the tap, going to get one of those for our 'van too ! Its a wonderful way to spend time and even if the weather is not so nice you can enjoy the peace with a good book and a cuppa or glass of wine 😉 We use ours all year round - its very cosy in the winter but keeping it clean with our two dogs more of a challenge in bad weather ! Hope you have lots more adventures !

My brother in law had a cousin who was well endowed with a luscious boosom ( big boobs Bertha was the name the boys gave her) I won't say the rest of the dirty.hehe a bit of fun.Lively memories for you all.🎉😄

Love your caravan and all you’ve done with it. I had to laugh when you showed us your Tart bag. I’m not sure I would go out shopping with it x 😂😂😂

The caravan looks lovely ❤Glad you had a good time xxxx

Great job Helen well done with towing your Caravan ,those Curtains look amazing .Thank you for sharing this video so interesting & seeing how much fun you had with you family was lovely .😁🦮🐦🌺

I loved this video! Everything looks great.

So glad it all went well. Brings back so many happy memories. An occasional wet day is quite cosy. We always had board games and cards. And reading of course. And people watching if you’re a bit nosy.

Well done Helen, I hope you all have many happy days caravaning ❤❤

So happy for you both to enjoy being with your grandchildren. Our granddaughter is 19 and we have loved being with her as she has grown up. We have beef blessed with a grandson who is 3 and he is going to be living near us, we are so happy as travelling to see him was not ideal. We are one happy family who will be able to share fun weekends. I love your videos and enjoy watching you do so many fun things. Thank you for showing us lovely clothes shoes and jewellery, you always look lovely.

Soo pleased first trip was a success, hopefully more adventures to come. Helen, can you tell me where you found your bench seat covers please ? I’d like to protect our seats as they are very light, and the throws I currently have on them, are not aesthetically pleasing 😂

Oops sorry I did look but missed it 😂

Black top incredibly slimming on you - looks great

Nice! I love how you got some shopping in😂. Southbourne is my go to beach and I often think it's as good as abroad if you have a lovely day. Glad you enjoyed your first foray x

Towing is great fun, it’s the backing up….so I just don’t. I only go forward, lol!

Ab Fab Helen. Toodles 😊😊

Well done Helen the caravan is lovely ❤

❤❤❤

Well done Helen you both have done so well for your first trip. You will both be whizz kids setting up in no time 😊

Well done Helen! I'm sure you'll get more confident as time goes on. Caravan looks lovely, you smashed it! xxx

Appreciate the video. How attractive you look in the last bit. Thank you

I go nowhere without my John Lewis fan, it's a life saver. I think you may have to get one for Dolly !!!!

WELL DONE HELEN!!

Hello Campers! Well done Helen. You were determined to tow that caravan and have certainly made the van look a home from home. Amazing what you needed to take for a couple of days but it will all probably stay there now, and the set up and pack will be easier. To be honest you both looked pretty whacked but the heat in the van would not have helped! I hired a Campervan with an awning for the first time at 70 after the first lock down ended and drove from Sussex to Norfolk with my dog and just loved it! I think a Motorhome might suit you both better. Less strain and easier for sure! Happy Camping 😄

So glad you had a great time. Well done you for towing.x

Fabulous video, as always Helen! Love watching you and Rob living your best lives! Xx

Looks like you had a great weekend. The caravan looks so lovely and you are so organised, regular campers! Well done on your first successful trip. 😊😊😊

Hello Helen, thank you for another great caravan vlog. You've been really helpful as I've just bought my first caravan. I tried to purchase the ultenic vacuum but your promo didn't work. Do you know if it is still valid? Many thanks, and I wish you many more enjoyable trips, Diane.
