The wind and rain are blowing a hooley so, perhaps some inside investigation is called for?

Slumming it in a hotel this weekend, courtesy of a Secret Escapes deal. Next weekend we’re staying at the lovely adults only campsite that is Back of Beyond. And they have a band on at Monty’s Bar, so a short stagger home

Carthago owners meet at the Camper UK fireworks then onto haven on Monday for 3 nights with a stop in Lound at the bluebell inn between.
Hoping to “restock” our motorhome after repairs at an Approved Workshop.
“Hoping” as they returned it once and the major fault recurred within 10 minutes. I suspect they simply treated the symptoms without finding the cause, first time around.
It has proved expensive for them to replace the damage caused by the recurrence so I “hope” that they have learned their lesson and corrected it this time!

No. Still waiting on DVLA to sort out my C1.
Well, we got it back with the fault repaired. Unfortunately a new fault appeared as we drove the vehicle back home.Hoping to “restock” our motorhome after repairs at an Approved Workshop.

I feel that they have either caused this one during their investigation or missed it altogether in their PDI testing.
Anyway, it is going back for a third time. I have already put in writing that I am “disappointed” in order to prepare a paper trail just in case I need it.
After their first failure they were gracious and helpful.
Now to see how they handle it this time.
Just packed the rucksacks on wheels, known as drag packing. We are off to New Dehli tomorrow for five weeks in India. Golden Triangle (ish) then down to the Andaman and Nicobar islands for a bit of beach time, where hopefully the monsoon will have more or less finished. We’ve splashed the cash and gone for a New Dehli hotel at £18 per night. We always said we would never go back to India, but here we go again.

If your not in any hurry, catch the 11.15hrs Number 172 bus from Darley Dale (should be easy parking and, if you have time, I didn't
, and into engines, there's the Whitworth, he of the thread, Museum and Cafe there) to Bakewell.Normal buses take about 15minutes BUT, this one goes up hill and down dale calling in at, what seems like, every village in the area, and takes about 50 minutes.
I caught it by mistake while staying a CCC THS there last summer, it was wonderful in the sunshine but should be again now with the Autumn tree colours.
Personally, I would hesitate to take my PVC some of the places that bus went but the driver did it superbly!
PS. It's Bakewell PUDDINGS and I hope your rich?

Thanks for the tip, we will look.
Puddings don't sound as good as tarts
as for the rich bit lets just say we are SKIing
Off to the Suzuki Katana (it's a motorbike) owners club AGM - informal meeting, meal in the local curry house then off to watch a rock-covers band in the pub across the road from the hotel for the rest of the night (and some of Sunday morning).
