You might have noticed that things have gone very quiet in this corner of the world. We haven’t given up or sold Heidi … it’s just that other things have got in the way. I’ve been pondering whether to write because every now and then I take a look at the stats and I canRead more

When the Urge Takes You

October 5, 2022October 5, 2022 - Margaret 16 Comments

We had been home for almost three months when the urge drove us back to take Heidi the Hymer on a trip. She hadn’t been idle all these months with family members making good use of her and some bits of upgrading being done. A strange thing happens to us when we’ve been on aRead more

Homeward Bound

July 13, 2022July 13, 2022 - Margaret 29 Comments

We are home and it’s time to finish the latest tale and reflect on where we’ve been.  We spent our last five nights in Camping St Clair at Neufchâtel en Bray. This is the town we usually begin and end each trip and it feels very familiar now. Poppy had her necessary visit to theRead more

What to do when your nozzle falls off and other nonsense

June 19, 2022June 19, 2022 - Margaret 9 Comments

Camping Risle Seine is in upper Normandy about twenty miles  inland from Honfleur. We chose it because it has a golf course on one side and beautiful lakes to walk around on the other. The town of Pont Audemer is a ten minute cycle away with everything we might need and we could see thatRead more

France we’re Back

Cliffs at Millau

We left Camping El Garrofer in Sitges, detouring to a local shopping area where there is an outdoor Laundromat. It was in the carpark of a supermarket in one of the less salubrious areas outside of the town just up the road from Lidl where we usually do our final shop before leaving. Unfortunately, theRead more

Brace yourself France – we’re on our way

April 2, 2022April 22, 2022 - Margaret 12 Comments

We recently left home for a twelve week trip to France and Spain. We had to push the leaving date back a week because of a silly but disastrous error with my electric bike. It went like this. We put our electric bikes in for service ready for the trip. Shirley’s took longer than mineRead more

Be careful what you wish for … again

February 2, 2022February 20, 2022 - Margaret 26 Comments

“I want an adventure” I cried one day when I should have known better. Almost everyone we talk to has been suffering from cabin fever and the frustration of plans being scuppered. It’s the common story of Covid. Most motorhomers that we know have looked at their pride and joy with a mixture of longingRead more

And then there were Three

November 15, 2021December 1, 2021 - Margaret 10 Comments

Saying goodbye to Brave Boo Last week we had to say goodbye to our faithful old poodle Boo. At the age of almost twelve he became seriously unwell and we made the difficult decision to ask the vet to help him along on his final journey. He had suffered for at least four years withRead more

Patience may be a virtue but …

Heidi the motorhome was announced ready for pick up by Cleveland Motorhomes and we drove down to Darlington keen to get a few days away. The pick up wasn’t straightforward. They waved us a cheery goodbye and we drove up the road only to discover a sinister clunking noise every time we changed gear. BackRead more

Getting to know you …

July 28, 2021July 28, 2021 - Margaret 11 Comments

Heidi the motorhome has been a member of the family for a few weeks and we’re reminded that it takes quite a while to get used to a different van. So far we have repeatedly forgotten to turn the fridge from gas, to 12v to electric depending on where we are at the time becauseRead more
