Halifax Clarity card which can also be used at ATM's to get money with only the normal interest charge which is often cheaper than using a bank debit card. David

I always get my POI's from Archies website although I imagine that he gets his co-ordinates from ACSI. I don't recall having a particular problem in finding sites on my TomTom and I have used dozens of their campsites. If you find a POI which is incorrect Archie is always happy to hear from you...

Some pictures of the two sites mentioned http://www.davidklyne.co.uk/CampingLaBienAssise.htm and http://www.davidklyne.co.uk/camping_les_epinettes.html Les Epinettes is quite a basic site but quite comfortable for a couple of nights and cheap!!! David

Eileen I don't think we really know yet as I an pretty sure the change does not happen until the middle of the year. Have you looked at www.satelliteforcaravans.co.uk as there is a lot of useful info there. We will continue to take our 80cm dish with us. It might mean that we won't get the...

Joanna We arrived at the Les Sablons, the site I mentioned above, in late August and despite using the ACSI Card we had to pay in advance for the first week of our stay. When I asked why this was she told me that all the other pitches that had been booked had been paid for in advance. Come what...

Certainly is, Margaret enjoyed it but I struggled with it and I have read many canal associated books in my time and had a boat on the canals before we started caravanning. We stayed here in August http://www.davidklyne.co.uk/camping_les_sablons.html which was only a short cycle ride or walk...

Barry My vote goes to Chateau de Granspette. Its not too far off the A26 or D300/600 on the other side. It has a nice restaurant as well. I have lost count of the time we have stayed there. Some pictures here David

We were ther earlier in the year, a review and some pictures here The site is quite high above Innsbruck but its nothing to bother a well balanced outfit. Once off the motorway you have to take care to follow the instructions, see link, but again nothing to worry about. Once out of Natters the...

John All my recent photographs, from 2011, have been taken on a Canon D500 DSLR. For quick editing for my website I use a wonderful free program called Irfanview. Given that its free it has a lot of excellent features. For more complex work I do have Photoshop Elements as well. I have tended...

Barry My experience of trying to use such services abroad on a laptop is that the come up as not available in your region. One way to overcome this is to use a routing service which tricks the service provider into thinking you are in the UK which is done by IP address. Your only other option...

Steve It was some years ago but were were in Pisa and we visited the Duomo. Margaret was modestly dressed, including a scarf to cover her shoulders but that was not enough for the man on the door who had a long stick to poke people with. She had a little bare flesh showing on her arms above...

Not long returned from a 6 week trip to France. My latest blog can be seen here http://www.davidklyne.co.uk/french_leave.html David

If you do a Google search for Youtube films of vehicles joining a Eurotunnel Shuttle you can get an idea of what its like. Like others we have used the Tunnel for years now and seem to manage to get our 7.3 caravan on OK. David

We have been to Port Grimaud several times and stayed at Praries de la Mer and couple of times and also next door at Camping de la Plage. We prefered Camping de la Plage but it was 10 years since we were last in that area and I was looking at some reviews of de la Plage a few weeks ago and they...
