Yesterday afternoon (New Year’s Eve) was spent in the nearby and enormously likable pub, The Carnarvon Arms which is just a five mins walk from the Teversal site entrance. This is one of those ‘gastro pubs’ that concentrates more on food than it does on supping! But fear not, we’re not talking one of those ‘two meals for [...] Read Full Story

This morning we awoke to better weather i.e. it wasn’t chucking it down or blowing a gale! So we decided to get out as quick as we could before the forecasted bad weather closed in again later that day. A Cadac bacon sandwich later, all booted and suited, and we were out exploring the adjacent [...] Read Full Story

You know when you need to get out more, lead a more exotic life perhaps or could do with living life a smidgen closer to the edge: when your Missus comes back from the toilet block after a visit to the little girl’s room, gushing the benefits of how luxurious the bogs are, how well [...] Read Full Story

Ever since last year’s shenanigans we’ve stored our van with a specialist caravan storage company. Gold CaSSOA approved so we get a bit of a discount on our insurance of course- it’s been worth the peace of mind to be honest! However whilst we’ve had no problems with our provider: they’re about 8 miles away, which [...] Read Full Story

That’s it we’re home after our three night stay in a static at the Rimington Caravan Park. Typical really as the weather’s just picked up. I took the dogs for their morning walk in bright sunshine after breakfast just to rub the point home about the weather, whilst Missus Capers cleaned the unit ready for [...] Read Full Story

It’s now Tuesday afternoon, which has given us time to put some thought into this Static Caravanning malarky now that we’ve been here for a day or so! So what do we think? Well the actual unit we’re staying in here at the Rimington Caravan Park which is near the village of Rimington & Middop in [...] Read Full Story

Our tow-car’s clutch (a Jaguar X-Type 2.0D Estate) is buggered and whilst the thing is driveable - just; we don’t trust it to tow our van on a Caper. So until we can raise the several hundred quid to get it fixed, our Capers have been curtailed, hence the lack of activity on this blog! Before I continue [...] Read Full Story

That’s it we’re back! The official, collective family holiday at Dunstan Hill CCC ended on Saturday as everyone else went home, however we choose to stay on over the August Bank Holiday weekend on our own for an extra three nights. Typical Bank Holiday Weather But as par for course in the UK, it pissed [...] Read Full Story

After a long break away from our van we set off up to the CCC site of Dunstan Hill once again for a ten day holiday (20th Aug – 30th Aug) with Missus Capers’ side of the family. That’s twelve of us in total (incl three dogs) spread over two vans and a tent with [...] Read Full Story

Our quest to re-kit our van following last December’s sparks and smoke continues. At the moment we’re now looking around for some chairs. Some director style chairs and a couple of sun lounger style ones. Easy enough you may think. But being the fussy buggers that we are, not so; particularly as we’re very cost [...] Read Full Story
