Our first escape into camping as a family was in this tent

 

This was the last time we used it

At Monkey Tree

First outing with the ABI Award Globestar

can’t find any picture of the Rambler we had this awning for

But we needed a new one with more space so

Traded that awning in for this Bradcot seen here in ‘99 for the eclipse

 

We had this ‘van for 8 years so it was time to move on

Our present van

on it’s shakedown outing at

Little Switzerland   Folkestone in 2003

Spain 2005

Campsite— Interpals

at Playa Pals  sometimes called Sa Punta 

 

Beautiful place 400m to the beach and a fantastic restaurant and 100m to all-you-can-eat Chinese restaurant  Yum Yum

My Outfit at Trentfield Farm in Lincolnshire a perfect place to un-wind it’s 15 miles from Worksop, Lincoln, and Retford  BUT only 15 minutes from the pub

Penultimate outing for the Laguna
