Laundry day View attachment 306859

At least noone will nick you're knickers with the guard dogs on duty!

In the Chinese Laundry photo behind the ladder there is a grab handle, which looks like the sort of handle for manoeuvering a caravan, but why is it fitted on your MH?

Just curious.

It's a hymer thing the ladder is attached to that there's 2 behind the ladder and one on the roof.

Their roof bars use the same mounting - they always look a little strange.

But what is their purpose?

 

[gus-lopez]

I'm not parked there I was jist posting the photo as it's a popular place with motorhomes normally but looks like they've cleared it out.

Or they have all gone home.

Mounting brackets for the ladder and roof bars

@Northernraider
Dropping the ladder extension down at 90 degree to main ladder makes a good drying rack
Until you forget it's there and walk into it

You can ask the question on here Tam. I used them earlier in the year when the scammers tried it on with me out here attempting to use the "cross border directive" for an over stay in Mway area. Even sent it in spanish.As others have said most doesn't apply in Scotland.
"coupon mad" is probably the best expert on their.https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/forumdisplay.php?f=163&order=desc&page=88#topofpage

Nah it's been gutted ...there's one allocated place now near the towers but there's something being built so I don't see that bit lasting either

 

[Bustup15]

What a clever idea why didn't I think of that lol.

8 f'in plasters I've had on it today they just fall off , I'm tired of cleaning the damm thing.

I'm not grumpy I just mentioned it because it's blooming sore

Tam

Pile cream - that will shrink it

 

[Southdowners]

I don't know if you can get cohesive bandages in Spain - the sort you would use on animals. They're brilliant - stretchy and stick to themselves - you just put a bit of gauze or similar on the wound and wrap the bandage around a couple of times. I always bring a selection of different colours with us.

Popped in to simat de valldigna this morning to use the aire services and then drove to gandia.....parked up on the beach ...I'm the only one here at the minute.

Had some lunch and a walk along beach and I'm ready for a nap on the beach now

View of simat de valldigna and the monestary from the road up the mountain.

gandia beach from where I'm parked

 

[Northernraider]

So today I'm in javea or xabia I've never figured out which and why it has 2 names.....parked on the beach again alongside the promenade. ..3 or 4 other vans here but spread out.

Had stopped in denia for some shopping but nowhere nice to park there so moved to here.

A few pics from denia and javea ...I might hike up to the point tomorrow

Javea is Castilian Spanish, Xabia is Valenciano which is similar to or a dialect of Catalan.

Had a hike up to cap de sant Antonio this morning....was boiling ...dogs are knackered now lol. Going to have some lunch then try a spot of fishing off the rocks

Lovely sunshine and blue sea, but bit too dry and scrubby for my liking. A lot of the Greek and Turkish coastline has pine trees down to the warter's edge - much more to my taste, and it gives shade.

Watch that your tattoos do not burn and peel off.

I knew someone lived around here but couldn't remember who.

I'll bet Seville is hot ...I remember it from last year I was melting.

That said it's pretty hot here it must be at least 30° today

[Mark and Mindy]

I did that walk twice in the last couple of years on a fitness camp I was doing, really takes me back!

 

[bobandjanie]

Probably leave here Monday as it's getting cooler then into Portugal.
It's that hot I'm having to drink large beers. Bob.

 

[Northernraider]

Well we finally climbed up penn whitsisname at calpe...that was fun, back at Toby now for a desperately needed drink

 

[Northernraider]

Well that's a fun climb up there , after the tunnel it gets a little harder and the last 300 feet is quite tough going as the rocks are slippy, Milo struggled a little because of his wee legs but they were still the only 2 dogs up there and all the folk at the top were making a fuss of them lol.

Not a very flattering topless pic but man it was 30° and that was around 11 /11.30am

Its well worth a visit and the view is outstanding but you do need a decent level of fitness and be able to scramble over rocks etc ... some parts are a little close to the edge too which is fun

 

[mike mcglynn]

Some great views Tam that’s a very high climb you did there I would need oxygen at that height.
