Admittedly tastes do vary, but there's nowhere we would rather be than this corner of Cornwall.

Currently looking at this lovely view on the M1. Been here at least an hour. Accident ahead, so have been to the loo and had a brew. Six large recovery wagons have passed en route.View attachment 932516

Bothered.? Not at all. One more sleep until our eurotunnel train. We'll just be a little late to Canterbury park and ride. Yippee!

Are you allowed to cook on the motorway??

we just put the van in autopilot. It's that clever we can go to the toilet in the outside lane.

Just be sure to not dribble!

Just be sure to not dribble!

About twenty years ago we were heading to the Channel Tunnel from South Wales, usually about a 5.5 hour run. As we left the M25 I said to Mrs. Maison, “That’s the awkward bit gone”.

Unfortunately, when on the M62, we came across a solid traffic jam. An accident, involving a chemical tanker and three cars had totally blocked the southbound carriageway.

The blockage led to us being stationary for over six hours. I think people met, got married and had children before we moved again.

A workman’s van then drove down the embankment, used their saws to cut the wooden fence, and drove across the field to the gate and then the road. Several vehicles followed but all had to have high ground clearance.

During that period our toilet was used by about ten people after we saw a couple of young girls panicking when they needed a pee.

Each time we go past that place we remember and will do so on Sunday as we head to France again!

Our toilet is always broken in a traffic jam for some reason.

We overnighted last night at a fairly unglamorous gravel car park on the high tundra about 5 miles over the border into Sweden on the road between Narvik (Norway) and Kiruna (Sweden).

Rudely awoken just after 7am this morning by a helicopter landing right next to us!

Turns out it was a mountain rescue rescue helicopter doing a patient transfer into an ambulance. Managed a quick photo out the window in my PJs!

Unusual start to the day, and a different type of picture to add to this thread!

Sitting in my van listening to the National Symphony Orchestra rehearsing for this afternoon’s Prom concert at Shuttleworth. After enjoying a superb ‘Flying Proms’ concert here last night.
Highly recommended and worth every penny.
Lovely camping very close to the concert site as you can hear.
Added bonus this morning of

various aircraft to-ing and fro-ing.

I added a video clip with sound, but for some reason it’s not showing although it said it had loaded.

Good Afternoon

We too were at Old Warden for the flying proms. Stayed three nights, £20 p.n. ( no EHU available).
Totally recommend this, excellent value as camping includes access to collection hangars ( very interesting ) and Swiss Garden ( very beautiful).
Show itself I think was £30 and fantastic value with a quality live orchestra, flying display and fireworks.
If you’ve never been why not check out their events. We are looking to go to the Steam and Country fair next September. We are busy so can’t go in a couple of weeks.

Navarra, Spain, Urharte Arakil Aire, has to be one of my favourite stopovers, absolutely stunning area, the Aire is set in a small wooded area 5 minute walk from the village, taverna does very good Menu del Dia, The whole area is a National Park, some great walking and cycling. Loads of ripe Blackberries so it’s crumble and custard for desert

I think I paid £65 total for the two concerts. Both were excellent but the Flying Proms one was exceptional. I stayed four nights for £80 and as you say excellent value considering the access to the hangars and gardens. With fuel and a few quid spent in the cafe it cost me around £220 overall which I think is very good value.
Very well organised ‘pop up’ camping with friendly marshalls. I also camped there earlier in the year for the Festival of Flight weekend which was another excellent event.
Highly recommended.

I love old warden. I used to go to the Hot Rod super nationals there every year. Great venue with the old planes flying around also.

The caravan is a crazy Australian import. The self levelling suspension is something to behold!

Can you just check there is not a Patriot missile battery inside that ?

It was a demonstration one for the European market. It was being trialled by the agent. He’s had lots of British interest apparently. Seems a bit OTT for our roads.
