Just an update on where we are going.

Nuff said.

Not wholly converted, ok for now, they have everything here and more that you could find on any club site in England for a third of the price, but how long is it going to stay at this price.
Not long after they get a monopoly of them I would say.
Btw how do the club's justify their prices compared to these?

They have had a monopoly for some time and prices have risen slowly since I started using them a few years ago. In respect of club prices at home you have several wardens on sites who need to be paid. CCP sites are automated and although keep well, are not to the standard of club sites at home. Basic economics.

Missed the last couple of days caught up after reading the last few posts I'm going for a long lie down.

I did say at the beginning this is probably the last big tour we will go on so doing the places we have been before and liked, and hopefully some we havnt done but thought we might one day.
But up to yet the years seem to have rolled back and do you know I am beginning to think where we will go next.
I did think a lot of driving would get me down but we are loving it, just like the old days.
Had a paddle in the med and a bit of dinner in a beachside hotel now Julie has gone shopping for something for tea and I having a relax with a glass of red.

 

[chaser]

4 other ukvans here more than we have seen since the tunnel, not met anyone though.

How many tractors are you going to have to sell to fund this trip?

We haven't spent as much as you might think yet £200 diesel maybe £50 tolls, two ccps,£25 and it will be £150 here so if I have forgot something say£500 not bad as hopefully that's the big money sites done now.

One thing I have just found out, they are selling the acsi book in the reception, so if anyone is thinking of coming here and are members you will perhaps get it cheaper.

At Beaune the last few days and about half to a dozen other British vans there.
Here at Dole (as recommended by another funster) and one other Brit on the site.

Loads of German and Dutch though.

It’s still very busy overall.

Enjoy the sunshine chaser

We'll be in Ventimiglia some time in October on our way back from Croatia. Met a group tour of Brits near Zagreb. That was it.

Population of Croatia is 4 million plus. We've read that 3.2 million Germans holiday here. An 80% increase over the last two years.

Can you guess which language we hear most of the time??

Very weird mate, on the way down through France I would say 70% of the other vans were french, but two miles over the border I would say 10% would cover it.

We had a thunder storm in the night but back to wall to wall sun now.

Amazing though.
Rain stopped so went for a walk in to town.
Had a lovely lunch out with a carafe of house wine. Superb.
Walked back to site and literally about 5 paces from the van the heavens opened again.
Hope she put the lottery on
