I love the run through the mountains on that road. We must be lucky as we have only seen snow on the tops of the mountain.

I am affraid I'm having trouble getting on to the Internet and updating this Forum, my Laptop Power Supply has gone bang and I am struggling using my Phone. Never had so many things go wrong on a trip before.
Please keep posting your 'Nights Away' (and anything else) and I will sort it all out when we get back.
Enjoy your trips away, we are. The Weather (S Spain) is mainly sunny but with a cold Wind.
Mike & Hazel

Hi Mike,
Finally managed our first trip for this year.
3 nights at Woodhall Spa C&CC site. £15.60 per night (age concession) and 152 miles towed.
Of course, being ex-RAF, we went to the Battle of Britain Memorial Flight at RAF Coningsby. What a superb visit it was. The BBMF was working up for their Public Display Authorisation and were flying the Lancaster, Dakota and two Spitfires. We had our own private display from the airfield side of the security fence. Then a Typhoon took off and was thrown all over the sky practising for the season's public displays.
All round, a very interesting morning.
Roy...(Dickers)

Hi Mike,
Please put us down for 5 nights at Kalima Farm C&CC CS, £11.00 per night, 296 miles towed.
If anyone wants to use this site, please pay attention to the routing instructions. Do not allow your satnav to take you along the A350 and then turn east to the site. It is a bit hairy solo. It would be a bit of a nightmare with a caravan on the back. Very narrow roads with blind bends and very few passing places. The instructions in the C&CC book state that you should come in off the A342. Wise instructions!
The site is approximately three or four acres and very basic. If you opt for EHU, they put a reel of cable out for you. Very quiet and peaceful.
If you are interested in photography, it is about 1.5 miles from the National Trust property at Lacock Abbey and Lacock village. Lacock Abbey was the home and the place where William Henry Fox-Talbot evolved and developed (forgive the pun) the negative-positive process of producing prints. There is a separate building housing a permanent exhibition tracing the history of photography. Very interesting. The original oriel window which Fox-Talbot used for the first negative-positive is in the main house. How times have changed in photography! from exposures of 20 minutes and lengthy development processes to being able to take a photograph with an exposure of 1/1000 sec. and see it immediately using a DSLR or a mobile telephone. Amazing!
Dickers
