A twin 2.1amp USB charging point fitted. Auto-Trails, well our Imala, has no way to charge iPads and phones without the engine running unless you buy a cigarette lighter extension with USB ports to plug into the TV 12v socket. I did this and found that you can only charge one iPad and a phone …
Iona goes to Shakespeare Country
Trip 11: Stratford upon Avon Racecourse THS Once fully loaded we set off towards Stratford Racecourse, stopped for some diesel and headed to Leicester and the motorway. Then around Coventry and down the A46 to Stratford, it was about 98 miles so it should have taken us about two hours. In the end it now us …
Iona goes to York
Trip 10: Yesterday we drove to Sleaford and filled up with auto-gas and diesel and then went to the Mountain Transport depot to use the public weighbridge. Our previous post tells of how we got on and we have payload to spare. This morning we rang the THS at York RUFC to check if they …
Grafham Water Deliverance
Trip 9: The drive down to Grafham Water was easy and trouble free. We were not allowed on the campsite until 2.00 pm so we went to the car park by the Grafton Water visitor centre, here we had lunch and people watched. At 2.00 pm we headed back to the Shooters Hollow campsite. The …
The Habitation door

Iona goes to the Coast
Bridlington Yacht Club. We are going back up north, over the river Humber to Fraisthorpe just south of Bridlington, Yorkshire. We were very near here last year and it was a great seaside venue, only 300 metres to the beach. This year the campsite is even closer. Now that we consider winter has gone the …
Iona returns to Empingham Reservoir
All set up Our planned trip to Hatton Country World was cancelled due to last weeks wet weather and the venue is waterlogged. We have been stuck before on muddy grass so a wet rally field is a bit off putting. So we have planned to go to Lyndon top which is basically 117 acres …
Iona heads to Epworth
We have bought some Milenco Quatro ramps from a lady in Cambridgeshire. We need to pick them up the day before we set off for Epworth. This extra task will shorten the pre trip loading time so Sue has decided to load as much as she can on the Tuesday before we leave on …
Iona has a Change of Plans, now Derbyshire is in sight.
The view from our doorway We were going to Woodhall Spa. We have been there at least 6 times and to be honest there is not a lot more we can say about it. With 3 years of pictures already on our blog it will be difficult to find something new. With the van all …
