A fairly standard start to the weekend, apart from having to pick the car up from the garage, where it was getting it’s cameras calibrated. This cut time a little short, so we decided not to take the bike, as the site is fairly small as well, negating the need further. So we collected the ‘van and toodled off down the A1. Managed to get straight across the A690 into the site on this occasion, first time ever I think! Our favourite pitch #21 had just been bagged by someone before us, so we decided to plumb for a new pitch to us, namely #76. This has an open aspect on the awning near side, so quite roomy and spacious when enjoying the outdoors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We didn’t have anything planned for the weekend, just to relax. The new awning seemed to be fine, so that was good. Glad to report that the weather played ball, especially on Sunday when the sun shone quite warmly with a clear blue sky. Due to the clear sky, Monday morning was a little fresh, the heating had worked quite hard all night. Fingers crossed this bodes well for our week trip away in a fortnights time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
