We enjoyed Chester Fair Oaks. The ladies had a great time at the shopping outlets across the road (twice!) and Joe and I had a barbecue 😃 It seems like the CAMC have covered the health crisis with belt and braces. I do hope they add in some flexibility as the crisis progresses rather than a national one size fits all. The 1pm arrival seems very reasonable too. Thanks for a very informative video Bob and Jenny 😃🚐 Trev n Sue

Love the look of that on site dog walk, really wish that more CAMC sites had a nice area like that. Most cater for children with a nice play area, but often its just a small strip , or an off site walk for the dogs. They could easily put in some pipes, and mounds for interested dogs, like Poppy and our Blythe and Berry to explore and have fun on.

We went down the M53 through the tunnel to our Detecting farm last Sunday, back again Sunday, it is right by where you were. There is lots of footpaths through the farmers land that would make a great walk for Poppy too.. You should have shown your email to them , your a paying customer and did the right thing :)At least they are taking it seriously and deep cleaning etc, i have noticed sainsburys used to clean the atm machine but not anymore, anyway sorry for rambling.

A nice site which we've added to our "must go to" list. Interesting to see the Covid procedures - I wonder if they are having a different approach 'up north' - we have just spent 3 weeks across 3 different sites - 1 in the Midlands, 1 in the Cotswolds and 1 in Dorset. The toilet blocks were all cleaned at their normal times and were not recieving any extra cleaning - the laundry and washing up areas were receiving extra cleaning. The toilet block capacity had been reduced significantly but the band system was different in as such everyone was given a band and there was hooks outside the facilities - if a hook was free then you could use it. Sadly some people forgot to remove their bands from the hooks - and some went to the facilities and had forgotten their band but still went in !! On one site the facilities had been changed to being unisex. We used our own facilities except for number 2s !! However we had never used the shower in this current motorhome and found the shower pipe leaked (easy fix) and the shower cubicle door fell off when first used (not such an easy fix) so we'd recommended a full check of your on-board facilities before setting off !! Overall we felt safe on site but it did feel and seem to have a different atmosphere. Keep safe

We had a similar text for those dates from club site as you got before we arrived at Bolton Abbey, of course we thought it was for only this site? we had arrived at Southport after stopping an independant site called Langcliffe Park near Settle it had a big queue but got in later than 1pm, we arrived at Clumber Park a couple of days ago, we had added grankids while away at Southport but nothing about arriving at 1pm at site all info, arrived at Clumber Park site for just after 12 pm, all info said 12pm but wrote chalk board at entrance road said new arrivals now 1pm, went further back & parked up in clumber Park to wait, saw lots of MH & caravans going to site but not returning so went to the site at 12:30 to be in a big queue and people being booked in 🤬

I find the wristband system very restrictive. We’ve just been to Sandringham C&MC site and there were 2 showers, 2 toilets and 2 wash cubicles available per block, but they were only letting 2 people into the block at any time. So if 2 people were having a shower, you’d have to wait for them to finish, even if you only want to use the loo.

Can I ask a really silly question regarding water? When you connect ur fresh water hose to the van and then connect the other end to the tap on the post and you turn the tap on to start filling up the tank in the van... My question is, Do you leave the tap on the post on?? so it's constantly on? or do you turn it off when the tank in the van is full? on turn it on & off to top up? Thanks🏆👍

@@Schumi77 Google maps needs a phone and data signal to download its Maps, you can use it offline, but if it needs a new map, you can be lost quite quickly. Plus you can't put vehicle dimensions in it.
