After reading the post about 007 and vans it made me realise how much we love vanning. Only been at it for a year bought a swift 555 dealer special new to put on the back of my audi A6 avant. soon changed the car to a sorrie (by far better especially as it is an auto)
At 30 and 29 with no kids some people laugh at us at work (teachers) but to us this is the most fun we have had in a long time. we have both travelled the world Lived abroad. But nothing beats the van.
So much so we are looking at spending our honeymoon in the van in the summer(either the North of scotland or South of France). We have spent virtually every weekend since last september away and every school holiday apart from one week in Gibraltar in the van.
The weekends we do not get away we almost get depressed. You can not beat Friday night, tow for a bit to a new place, set up kettle on/wine open ahhhhhhhhh.
It has got so bad that when we come home on a sunday the dog sulks. We were once at a caravan dealership and i had to get something out of the boot. The dog jumped out and ran into an open van and laid where her bed usually is. The couple who came out of the end bathroom got a shock as my dog was laid down.
Hope everyone enjoys it as much as we do, Lets hope we get some more sites 'up north. If anyone has any good sites about an hour from Darlington let me know.
My best so far. Sea view CC berwick-what a view
Ayr cragie GDNs-nice and close to town
Garlieston- cramped but superb
whitewater stockton on tees- our favourite weekender 30 mins away.
Keswick on the lake.
Sites we have booked
Blackpool -christmas
cotswolds new year
Keswick feb.
Happy vanning
