feemcg Posted May 9, 2009 Share Posted May 9, 2009 .......a caravan . I had 3 years of very happy caravanning with my ex and we sold the van just before we split up. Anna loved it and would go out with her bike and make friends......a great way to be out in the fresh air and make friends (she even has a 'boyfriend' from York that she phones every couple of weeks, bless her). I've been thinking about it for a while and wondered if I could do it myself.....tow, set up on the pitch etc....and decided to go for it. I am wetting myself but can't wait to go back to some of my favourite sites. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chickvic Posted May 9, 2009 Share Posted May 9, 2009 Congratulations how big is it? You're braver than me - I don't think I could tow it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angus Arran Chooks Posted May 9, 2009 Share Posted May 9, 2009 Well done Fee!!!! See you in Kildonan soon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
feemcg Posted May 9, 2009 Author Share Posted May 9, 2009 It's this one....same as I had before, I like the lay-out, as Anna has her own 'bedroom' at the back and can bring a pal. http://clients2.evolutioninteractive.co.uk/SpeculationAssets/Swift/Layouts/Caravans/2008/CharismaFamily/Char540_Vog530_Euro530_Vic.gif I was just thinking that tonight Anj.......would love to come back to Kildonan and see the seals......last time I lost the return ferry tickets and it cost an extra £100......plus a bash on the side of the van while it was on the ferry!

feemcg Posted May 10, 2009 Author Share Posted May 10, 2009 Lots of offers of places to stay ........ Just told my friend and she rolled her eyes as expected, not her thing at all. She was hoping we could go to Turkey or Greece in July (when it's way too hot for me to enjoy). I didn't tell her I was going to look yesterday as she would have tried to talk me out of it . .....but, she actually said she would come...as long as it was nice weather Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seagazer Posted May 10, 2009 Share Posted May 10, 2009 Fantastic. We have a static caravan and I must admit sometimes I think it would be nice to have a towing one so we could go all over the place. Let us know how you get on towing it. You're braver than me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angus Arran Chooks Posted May 10, 2009 Share Posted May 10, 2009 Fab picture of Anna at Kildonan beach Fee!! Pladda to the right with the lighthouse on it and then Ailsa Craig in the back ground, must have been a scorcher! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olly Posted May 10, 2009 Share Posted May 10, 2009 Brilliant! You'll get on just fine ... often it's not until you try something on your own, that you realise what you're capable of. Bet you'll have some great holidays and get a big boost to your self-confidence! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
feemcg Posted May 10, 2009 Author Share Posted May 10, 2009 Gosh, the butterflies haven't stopped.....keep getting a kind of nervy excitement when I think about it. I have a few favourite Caravan Club Sites from my past life but would like to spread my wings a bit and try some sites further afield. Would love to come back to Kildonan on Arran but not sure I could cope with the ferry. Will be getting it in about 2-3 weeks. I have chicks hatching this week so it will give me time to get them organised and get my tow bar sorted.......then have a wee night away to North Berwick to try it out .......and go and chap on ANH's door if I can't get things to work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
