A Brief diary of a Motorhome named 'Iona'
Trip 7: May 2022. Evesham RFC with the BCC Midlands group. We have been here before in May 2019, and it is a good venue beside the river Avon. There are places to walk and the town is quite pleasant so we decided to come back. The drive down was fairly clear despite the roadworks …
Trip 6: Kingsbury Water Park, Sutton Coldfield. This was a late change in our plans and being a Camping & Caravan Club site is not a normal venue type for us. However the campsite is in the middle of a massive country park of over 600 acres, with fishing lakes, bird sanctuary, water sport lakes …

Trip 1: Maythorne Campsite, Southwell. The heading covers two points, firstly my birthday and secondly our trip to visit Southwell Workhouse museum that was closed the last time we were in Southwell.

There is a Minster, a workhouse museum, Lord Byron stayed here and King …
Trip 9: Goodwood Revival, Chichester. We were due to go to the Goodwood Revival last year 2020 but then Covid 🦠changed everyone’s plans. Goodwood was just one of the thousands of events cancelled. However we were given the option of a refund or carry the tickets over to the next year, 2021. This year we …
