You will certainly be in safe hands with so many experienced Funsters about. When you have been once you will be planning your next trip before your return. I shall add you to the list when I next update it.
Nice to see you the weekend at Ashover Vintage Festival of Light
 
I see that significant dates are being added to the potential attendees list. Pat's Birthday is 15th. May (if you want to add it :Smile:). What is it about May?

Could you please add the Wires to the list as we are very interested too...

Many thanks...
 
Defintely Teddybard as Pete and I would like to add our interest to the growing list!

So please add Sedge and Trophychap aka Jenny & Pete. Not sure how long or exactly what dates, or even if definite until we know what's going on in our real lives what with our own and family stuff until nearer the time.

Cheap wine? can always be had wherever you are but if you want to know what's decent to drink and that you should buy, wherever you may be in Europe, you linger 'aimlessly' around the vino aisles in a local supermarket and just see what the locals are buying plenty of ! Follow suit.

PS Can we just buy one card? LOL

Jean & myself have arranged a meet at Twin Lakes, France (www.twinlakesfrance.com) between 1st May and 22nd May 2015. Anyone who wants to join us is more than welcome. As it is a Meet and not a Rally you are invited to join us at any point during the three week period and enjoy the reduced rate for a pitch. Primarily we are there to celebrate Jean’s 70th birthday, which is on 5th May 2015. There will some sort of ‘do’ on that day, a Pig Roast or something similar.

Pitch prices are 11E per night without EHU and 14E with EHU, which are obviously limited. This is a worthwhile saving on the normal pitch fee. At this point it is ‘an expression of interest’ however, it will be up to you to contact Twin Lakes to book your pitch prior to the period stated above. Make sure you quote ‘JaG’s Meet’ and quote you are MotorhomeFun when booking. Dates outside this period will be as per normal rates for the site, or a price you negotiate with Garry & Jan.
If you think you may go please let us know so we can give them some idea of anticipated numbers attending.

A bit about Twin Lakes and getting there.
Twin Lakes Caravan Park is a picturesque site set in the region of Charente-Maritime, France, which is rich in culture, gastronomy and with the most wonderful sights.
It is 820km (509 miles) from Calais via Paris or 829km (515 miles) via Rouen. We did work out a route for caravan avoiding all tolls and it is 484 miles of which 255 miles are on Motorways. Time estimated was 12 hours. This was done on Michelin Route Planner. You will obviously have your own preferred route. We did the Paris route using Tolls last year and it proved expensive on Tolls and Paris was busy around the Ring Road.

English family owned they cater for those seeking a quiet and restful holiday in rural France away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. At Twin Lakes, customers are treated as individuals, knowing that everyone expects something special from their family holiday in France. Their aim is to offer choice and flexibility making your French holiday a memorable one.
Guests will exchange the traffic jams for the French countryside, the crowded pavements for a coastal path, the urban stress for the great outdoors, and a holiday in Charente-Maritime, France is the perfect antidote for de-stressing from modern day life. Sit back, relax, and enjoy. Rural France is so fabulous to explore, or just be here and relax any time of year. The one thing you are sure of is the warm and friendly welcome. The hardest thing you will have to do here is…..leaving when it is time to go home.

We would love to attend as it would be our first meet in France. Would probably attend the last week as we are travelling to Brittany for the last week in may.
