Despite the bad weather reports we all bit the bullet and headed fro Deal on the Kent coast, to take part in the Motorhome Fun annual Easter fishing contest .
Prior to going the camp site " Cottington Lakes " tried to cancel us as they were a bit waterlogged, but agreed to let us stay on their hard standing .
Pat took the marshalling a bit seriously and Jane had a lesson on physics but decided to change all the rules .
The weather was better than predicted but sadly not good enough for fishing so Pats reign as the Funster champion will continue for another year.
In the usual style two tents were meshed together and the Funster Arms was declared open.
On Saturday we all took a trip to a local Motorhome dealer. Sonja and Kevin fancied a Burstner, but the right deal didnt materialise. However Sue took a shine to VW Auto Sleeper which she subsequently purchased .
Pat and I visited deal and Sandwich on the scooter and we fell in love with Sandwich. To be truthful we have actually fallen in love with kent as a County .
The usual suspects were in attendance, Dane & Hazel, Sonja & Kevin, Bob & Jane, Sue, Paul and Debbie, Keith and his family and new friends Ray and Claire.
The end result was a very enjoyable weekend with no fishing at all.
Welcome to our Blog, I hope you enjoy it. We are Neil and Pat
Since the kids left home(recommended) we have tried to do as much travelling as we can. We have toured parts of Europe on a motorcycle and started motorhoming a couple of years ago and have never looked back.
In a few years we are hoping to do some major travelling around the world.
By the way , Neil’s the one with the beard.
