I have to admit that back in 2011 when my husband suggested we should get a caravan, I was very sceptical. I was the one who had to sit next to him in the car when he moaned and groaned about the caravan in front of him. I had to listen to the snorting and heavy sighs that were expelled when we met one in the narrow country lanes, in our native South West, England.
So we made a deal, we would buy a second hand caravan. And if it was not being used by the end of the season 2011, we would sell it in the Spring of 2012.
You have probably already worked it out already, here we are in May 2013 and we still have the caravan. And whats more in the Winter months when we don't use it, I actually miss my weekends away.
Because that is the truth of it, our Caravan use is mainly weekends away. We are very lucky to live in the area we do. Within an hour we can be at the South Devon Coast, or the North Cornwall Coast. And within two hours we can be at the North Devon Coast. And we have found some lovely sites within the boundaries of Devon and Cornwall. But we have also found some that we could not recommend.
But this Blog is not just about our excursions with the Caravan. It is a means for me to record the things we have done, both with and without the Caravan. Hence the title. Maybe it will shed some light on some of the places we have been, and help the reader to decide if it is somewhere they would like to visit. But hopefully it will just be enough, to bring to the fore, in the years to come, the memories we are making today!
After all we have all used the phrase "Do you remember the time......."
And if no one but me reads this Blog, it will still have served it's purpose and recorded the things I want to remember.
