Another cool morning only 10C.
Kathleen takes herself off to church while I pack up, then, watch a cartoon version of the Adamms Family with Gabriel and Salma.
Not a lot of traffic on the 80 mile drive, roughly half on M4, remainder on "A" Roads, to Devizes, probably all searching for petrol/diesel.
Lots of parked cars on the final approach, not too much of a problem to us, but, pleased I am am not towing a large twin-axle caravan!
Devizes Camping and Caravan Club Site N51.356511 W2.072076, our second visit here, first was 2012.
The site is 100 metres from Kennet and Avon Canal. Wardens had even taken my joking Booking - "Additional Requirements: Some sunshine please" to heart and allocated us a sunny pitch (assuming sun shines of course).
Perhaps, the Caravan Club is going to have to up it's game, contactless checking in, no need to even go into reception, fees automatically taken on day of arrival. Plus, free WifI which actually works!

Torrential rain for most of the night, and, only 10C this morning, but, clear blue sky, and sun is shining.
Hair maintenance this morning (Kathleen, not me), which means, no way is a cycle helmet going to be worn, today.
So, a five mile walk along the (Kennet and Avon) Canal, a slight detour to Seend Cleve, to check out the Brewery Inn.
A drink at The Barge Inn, Seend, and a picnic lunch, sitting on a lock gate, by the canal.
We manage to do all of this, without getting wet, but, the rain starts again, in late afternoon.
Hi Ken
ReplyDeleteYou do realise that all those "parked" cars on the way into the site had actually ran out of fuel ! Keep the reports coming, very enjoyable and they are being read!
Regards
Bill
