      Thanks very much, the usage will continue. I’d better get that diesel air heater connected in Moo. 🐮

      Glad you are liking the Quest tent. Easy to
      Put up and take down the second time 😉. This Bob fellah gets around a bit. 😃😃😃

    Great suggestions. We also like to leave the heating on a few degrees during the winter.

      Thanks. Just wish there was an easy way of doing this in storage. Pete & Kaz

    We keep the heating on at 5 degrees otherwise the water dumps - that said, we're full timers !
    A great Christmas market/fair is Stratford upon Avon (which of course has easy overnight parking). Also, look out for the light festival at Warwick castle (again, we easy overnight parking). Our favourite is Balmoral - but that we rely on a secret park up 😁😁

      We’ve done the parking behind the leisure Center in Stratford, very convenient! Warwick castle maybe the one this time around. When we grow up…. More time in a van!! Pete & Kaz 👍👍😃😃

    We nearly always end up on hard standing, apart from on the continent 😊

    • @CraftyCampervanners

      One of the best view parkups we had in France was a hard standing that turned into a nose dive enforced parking in mud, we like the hard stuff, as it is less expensive to drive out of in the morning ;).

    Lovely to see you both and we agree that using your van is much better than storage 😃 🚐 💙 Trev n Sue xx

      Thanks very much - we’re in a bit of a hybrid mode at the moment, driveway for one van and storage for the other, taking it in turns. Pete & Kaz 👍👍😃😃

    I wouldn’t book grass even in the summer, unless it’s close to the time of going. We get rain all the blinking time these days!

    A Christmas market would be nice, but I don't know what towing in snow and ice would be like!

    • @CraftyCampervanners

      Perhaps we’ll do a market this Christmas. As long as the roads are ploughed and your rig is suitably a-tyred 😉 , the best driving assistance device is between your ears, you will be fine!!

      Something we are nervous of too! We'll have to play dares and do it one day lol
