We're going to the Belgian Grand Prix, and will probably base two or three weeks of camping around that, including some time in the Netherlands. Other than that its cheap weekends here and there.

Just had our first weekend away last week near Cardigan. Good fun. Practicing for our main trip in June, France 3 weeks: Calais via Normandy to the Vendee (catch the first 3 Tour de France stages) to Massif Central to Alps (for some steep cycling!!) then blast back North. That's the rough plan.

Well, I really wasn't expecting that to be; bodged, broken, leaking, lost, missing, mangled, rusty, rotten, stripped, siezed - pass the Stella and it'll all be better

We plan a tour of Somerset, Dorset and Devon over a couple of weeks [once the bodywork's all done] and then some weekends away.

Can't wait either! :D

I am still waiting for some inspiration on where to head off to this long summer holiday. It will be overseas and in the van wherever we end up.
