Well we stayed a night at Pershore before heading on to the NEC at Birmingahm for the Motorhome and Caravan Show. Despite many, many new motorhomes on display we did not see one that we preferred the design of so fortunately we are happy to stay with More Time. We bought a few little goodies (you can’t go to a show like that and buy nothing) and headed off to a site just outside Market Harborough for the night.
Our new TomTom satnav took us right to the farm, even telling us to turn left into the farm driveway. Once we had negotiated our way through the chickens and cockerel we found the site that has room for just five units, we were the only one there. All we could hear was the cows and sheep and the occasional whinny of a horse in the fields around us.
04.30 saw us awakened by the cockerel (a bit like being at Fowey) but he didn’t continue for long so we went back to sleep. Our facility block at this site was novel, it was a large green room, originally built as a septic tank and more often that not sunk into the ground. This one was above ground and had a double glazed UPVc door fitted to the side. On entering you found yourself inside an 8ft diameter, green walled and ceilinged wet room with heated towel rail, toilet, handbasin and shower, all of which worked perfectly. No problems with condensation here as it just ran off the walls and out of the floor drain.

After a call on the way at a B&Q to get some cable for a table lamp we headed off to Sandringham in Norfolk where we are now. A lovely Camping and Caravan Club site on the Sandringham Estate. We are hoping to visit the house (Royal Familys holiday home) tomorrow (Friday) so it had better be good weather.
