Thanks! We got back on Sunday evennig and we had a fab time - there was hardly any wind at all!  The night before was horrendous apparently mind you...

We've left the van there with the awning up and we're going back this weekend. We tried Scarborough and it was lovely and warm but my 5 year old went face first into the sea as soon as we arrived, and we never thought to bring a change of clothing so it was cut short..! We're hoping for the same weather this weekend, forecast isn't looking bad so far.

We did lose the main long bit of the Bull stabiliser on the way there. My husband hadn't pinned it in, just screwed it. I'm still annoyed about it. We were lucky it didn;t hit something. So we're looking for spares on the cheap now. Gah.

A few niggles with the van but I feel quite excited about it again. Typical seeing as it's almost the end of the season!!!!

Thanks for your good wishes and advice folks, we really appreciate it.

Lucy x


I'm glad all went well, Lucy.

Why not buy a cheap compendium set? even at that age they are perfectly capable of having a good game of ludo, snakes and ladders and drafts. If they enjoy those they will quickly grasp chess. We have alight weight compendium that we leave in the van. We rarely play things like that at home and the kids love them when we are away.
