You sleeping in the tent Bryan ??? :winky:

Only when I've had too much sangria ::bigsmile:

Never mind your pitch, ::bigsmile:::bigsmile:

Is mine set out in the european or english door side :thumb:

All the pitches that have the hardstanding slabs have the slabs set for UK caravans to reverse on - so that's why I've driven on forwards to get my door on the correct side.

You mean you were in it ?

Standard male condition.

Are you two coming this year?

I think so. We can't do anything until after a wedding at the end of Jan. So something like arrive March and do some wild camping at the circuit at the end of March, then, who knows. Wander easterly round the coast to St Malo. Survey the remains of Marjal after the FUNster blitz. If they are very lucky maybe even try and bail out a few FUNsters from Alicante prison or at least smuggle some cheap plonk in for them.

My March you lot should be reasonably partied out and docile, we can cope with that.

It takes us at least 2 weeks!:winky:
We're sailing to Roscoff - visiting friends in Brittany.
Next a couple of nights en-route then it's Frankie's in Toulouse.:thumb:
A couple more nights en-route then it's JJ's in Portugal.
A couple more night en-route then it's Zahora!:thumb:
The nights en-route we'll try to stay in places we haven't stayed before. More interesting that way - enjoy the journey - the winter trip starts in Plymouth:Smile::Smile:


We can't just go from A to B.
Tried it last year going from Portsmouth to Santander - boring! Arrived Santander Thursday am - 1st night Santillana del Mar, Friday night Salamanca, Saturday night Caceres and Sunday afternoon we were in Zahora - no adventure!:Doh:

As for co-ordinates - try:-

N 36º 12' 02.24"
W 06º 20' 05.89"

Just got it off Google Earth
