Totally lost my watch on this thread.
We had a night out on Friday with bro & sis in law. We decided against taking Ellie as she is still very stressed. Now my foot is repaired I’m going to start taking her out for walks in it in hope she adapts.
We had a rather large MoHo in Australia while Mr gg most drove it I did drive a bit and it was so easy. I love driving my camper van and I’m main driver now.
It’s in for MOT today, nervous as it’s the first one we’ve had done. While all advisories and essentials were done before we bought it you just never know.
All being well well do a weekend bike racing with it in a couple of weeks with friends.

And Vinnie passed with flying colours. Not bad for a 15yr old with 202k on the clock!

Thanks guys I’ve always been to scared to hope it was all ok, the people I bought it off seemed genuine but you just never do fully know do you. Now to use it and pray Ellie catches up and loves it as that would make it easier to use.

first stages of plotting a Northumberland trip for later this month - plan is two nights off grid, one on a site and repeat heading up the coast and back?? cross country via Kielder maybe ? for a couple of nights Keswick-ish at the end.
Any tips/ recommended small sites/must sees?

We stayed at the site near Haltwhistle a few years ago. Small and quiet site with good facilities. Loads of “Roman stuff” to see and do around there.

Let me have a chat with my brother RH, Northumberland is an area we really want to explore its a fab place.
Bamburgh Castle carpark allows overnight campervans for £12 (I think) There is some free parking sites in Alnwick.
Not quite Northumberland but we stayed at Derwent Reservoir last weekend that was £10 8pm-8am its £1.50 for 2hrs if you're there early/late (we never saw any wardens but paid just in case)
There is option to stay at Twice Brewed which is on the Wall.
