The days are getting longer and it is (currently) much warmer and I am now getting desperate to go away. Unfortunately the next few weekends we have stuff on so we can't go away. Do you think it is time so me to put everything back in the van for this year, go on, say yes  Then we can go away the next available weekend!!

Our van is due a service in March so we are going to have a weekend somewhere close by then empty stuff out to take it in! 

Then France for a couple of weeks at easter

Its a Pegasus-yep- we love it and it has only had a couple of minor faults.

All put right by our excellent dealer (Salop Cosford)

Got new spec front protection on now -looks nice and no dents!!

 Still use the protech cover to keep mud and other smellier stuff off-our store is out in country!

Purchased our newish van at the beginning of Jan and, like you, are getting very itching feet. May go away next weekend, beginning of half term week. If it wasn't for kids/school i'm sure we would have gone by now.

Go for it!!!!

Ooo - I don't think I could wait until June - I'd have a look for somewhere, Fallenangel, and bring those plans forward.

Mine had a service this week so while it was empty, I have completely cleaned the inside today. The sun was shining while I sat with my cuppa, feet up on the sofa. Oh how I long to start going away again. Just need the weather to be a bit warmer

This winter seems to be going on foreverrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!

Absolutely, any excuse to hitch up and go. My current one is "the dog needs a change of scenery"

 "Unfortunately the next few weekends we have stuff on so we can't go away"

That's just a sign of poor management, Helen. It should read " Unfortunately the next few weekends we have holidays so we can't stay at home to do anything".

We were sat in a garden centre last Saturday looking out over the Wolds. The sun was shining and, in fact, it was a rare frost and snow free day. The little lady dialled up the net on her phone and found the weather for this last week in Sandringham and the Peak district. Sandringham looked the better option so we went straight from the garden centre to storage and picked up the caravan to take home to put all the furniture back in, give it a clean, test the services etc. and then booked Sandringham for the week.

Nice to be back in harness. Got the itchy feet sorted. Get yourself organised and get away, Helen.

Now, is that the right answer?

Phil

I wish we could get away whenever we liked, unfortunately something called 'work' gets in the way!

Roll on the day ...
