I watched this last night feeling rundown and starting to get sick, and the video was so lovely, quiet and kind of meditative and actually made me feel better. Something about being snug on a rainy day is so soothing and makes one appreciate the tiny things in life. I'd love more on rainy days of just the quiet of sitting inside your van that seems so cozy, looking out the windows, with not much going on and yet still it reinforces that the small things in life are so nice to have. Thanks for this.

Hi, I live in USA, and I watch a lot of British vlogs. You and your husband are great. He’s so funny. I love it, and I’m gonna subscribe. My dog died last week and I’ve had a hard day of crying, but you made me laugh. Especially when you said those cookies are going in and out like a fiddlers elbow I lost it that cracked me up. Thank you so much for making my day better.

Best part of a caravan is you don't have to put up an awning, and have more living space than a campervan too. I have a lwb Sprinter campervan and love it, but prefer the caravan we had before, the awning (porch style) was a bonus. Plus once on site we had a convenient car to see the sights. Like both camping alternatives, but prefer the caravan.

This is my all time favourite campsite. I visit normally twice a year. Up until a couple of years ago I was in a tent but now in a microcamper.

Stayed on that site in 1972. Had a good day out and got back to find a gale going on. Our small frame tent still standing but most other tents flattened and peoples belongings blowing away.

Yet another great video. Just seen u power cord is very long for the van which is handy for the obvious reasons but the problem is it has to be stretched out with out any coiling as the coil will heat up and harden the cable or worst case it can catch fire.

Just a suggestion about the rattles from the oven. I use oven shelf guards on the sides of the shelves which stops these rattling and don’t need to be removed to use the oven. That just leaves the grill pan etc which I put in a Jiffy bag so it’s quick to remove before lighting the oven

Another great Vlog. The Lakes wouldn't be right without a bit of rough weather. However, when it's nice its glorious. I find it unbelievable that some pedestrians fail to use a crossing correctly. The dog walker at (2:31) was 2 or 3 yards away from a light controlled crossing, yet chose to attempt crossing off the kerb 🤨

Lovely episode, that’s one of the reasons I like campsites, is to watch all the comings & goings 😊 Especially those putting up awnings 😂😇 You we’re only an hour away from us when you were at Kendal, give us a shout next time & we will pop by 😎 Tell Carol I liked her jumper, it suits her ☺️ Seems you’re loving Snoop Van 🚐 Re the the merino wool top shrinking, any shrinkable items, I hang in the shower room, I am guessing you have a heating vent in there?
