After a quick shop that took ages in the Super U then having lunch we didn't get away until 3:30.
So didn't get very far now at Courville-sur-Eure, appear to be making a habit of stopping here.View attachment 732747

Enjoy your trip Lenny... remember if venturing into Spain during Easter it can be a bit of a Madhouse.....we shall be at home... don't like too much noise and crowds....that's mainly on the coast though..

What time, we may have a snap !

 

[MartinandBev]

Protesting about their retirement age changes this time Lenny.
You’ll likely pass MartinandBev traveling up to the Dieppe ferry.

Have fun & enjoy your travels.

PS, My guess at the first meal is €33.25

We’re just outside Dieppe now, at a place called Saint Nicolas D’Aliermont, hopefully our ferry tomorrow will be early as well, as that means early into the UK and early out on 24 April lol

I bet with that weather, plus the unusually high forecast, if its not busy down there already, it sure will be, Zee Germans are coming! Lets hope there is some room left for "Our Lenny"
Campsite owners will be rubbing their hands.

Never mind, I would hope to be asleep about Sully by then. Some unearthly hour in the morning for us. I think 0600 or 0700

Any trouble with the protesters on the way up?
We are heading out from New Haven on the 27th of April for two months heading firstly for southern Spain for the warmth and then back to our favourite booked site in Agde South of France.
Hope this year will be okay as last year at the same site suffered from a slipped disc in my back and rushed to Montpelier neurological hospital for surgery. Had to have the van repatriated and both of us flown back courtesy of nationwide flex travel insurance! A nightmare saga!

 

[Cliffyboy]

Oh O.K. thanks and the only reason we booked a late ferry as we have a little dog and she will sleep in M.H.whilst we are in the upper decks !

 

[Cliffyboy]

Hi Wingman we too are staying in Agde between 8th May to 22nd !. At our favourite site !.

Managed 137 miles today now at Luant small free Aire behind a restaurant by a fishing lake, just south of Chateauroex. Stopped here last year on the way home.
A bit warmer down here 24° even got me shorts on.

have seen nothing at all, likewise not had any hassle with getting diesel, we come from Alicante area along the bottom to Mèze and then up thru the middle, and the only thing we couldn’t get was LPG, the one garage that did have it the Moho wouldn’t fit appears they are focussing on diesel and petrol as the priority

We are on the 0630 to tomorrow from Dieppe and it’s looking a tad windy tomorrow, the Mrs already in panick mode lol

Hi Cliffyboy,
We are booked in to La Pépinière from the 24th May so we will probably pass you on the road somewhere! Shame we can’t meet for a beer or two somewhere!
BTW which is your favourite site?

Had a result with the van, the drop down bed has always rattled a bit I've tried tightening the bolts and adjusting the stop with no luck. Recently it started squeaking it was driving me nuts.
Last Saturday I loosened each bolt on the mechanism one by one and squired PTFE lubricant on the bolts & bearings.
The bed has been absolutely silent never been that quiet from new, brilliant.

 

[Cliffyboy]

That's a shame Wingman 123 as we have to get back to London for a family wedding and is that the name of your site in Agde ? La Pepiniere ? .
