Title says it all.... now that you can go away in the MH and stay, where are you off to ?

Those of us not in the UK are still not able to use our MH due to lockdowns, but you lot are freeeee

So are you taking advantage and where are you going ? Or not...... ?

Yes Jean, not too bad at all thanks. We both picked up a stomach bug as I mentioned but recovered within a day or two. Aside from that she was in pretty good form and better for a few days in the sun and fresh air.

I was gently trying to wake myself up in the van this morning with a size large hangover when all of a sudden my phone springs to life with a video call and its Captain Over himself @nicholsong calling me from the Greek island of Patmos. So there I am bleary eyed having to look at his smug face with this paradise beach behind him and his van parked on it. Jammy git. It looked amazing.

Glad someone is having a proper adventure. I have asked for some photographs but dont hold your breath. Sadly I think they are flying back Thursday but will return in September.

They drove the van down to Greece though all the way from Poland. So I guess that definitely counts. They have to return for a couple of months though before flying back down for the backend in Greece then I assume the drive home.

He has posted me some pics but I dunno if I am allowed to post them. Shall I post them anyway?

I have permission (from Basia)

So here is at least one member having a great time away in the van.

Looks like some Mafioso Don!!

Here he is boring the crap out of some poor couple. "Ah yes I remember when I rounded the Horn in 62 in a bathtub with just a Queen Elisabeth Coronation Tea Towel for a sail". Jammy bugger though. Look at that for a parking spot.

Great picture of Basia but Geoff looks like he maybe just got the bill. :lol:

The Greeks still dont know how to do proper Fish n Chips though. No mushy peas FFS or Beer Batter! ???

Fabulous, makes on quite envious until we see pics of our son in Turkey with 36c daytime and 33c nights. Just can't sleep.
But great pics from Geoff.

Why haven't we heard about Geoff's trip from himself? Or have I missed it?

He says he is too busy to get online having fun in the sun. It's either that or he doesnt know how to tether his phone to his laptop but he managed to call me on WhatsApp this morning so there is hope.

Got back on Wednesday from a 650 mile trip, we were away for 19 nights, stayed on a combination of CLs, club sites and one private site, we called at Bognor Regis (CL), Brighton (club site), Rye (CL), Canterbury (club site), Bearsted (club site), Little Waltham (CL), Kessingland (private site), Sherringham (CL), Cambridge (club site), Oxford (club site).

One day's duff weather and another day where it rained just after we had returned for the day so no complaints there. We did have a few traffic jams going up to Suffolk but after that we had pretty good runs between the sites.

All in all, very happy really.

Did notice there were on average more MH or Campervans compared to Caravans, probably 2/3rds the former and caravans/tents the remaining 1/3rd.
