I was so relieved to hear that no one was hurt in the van fire. Let's just hope there were no fatalities in that awful road traffic accident. I was surprised poppy didn't start whimpering as you pulled up on site. Really looking forward to watching your adventures in 2024 🚐 Happy New Year ❤

Enjoy your days there 😁

Largs is a good stopover. There is a free park up at the Marina, as you leave Largs heading south. 20 minute walk into the town, taking in the Pencil - a monument, which commemorates the Battle of Largs. Nardini’s Café a must visit. Also - ferry across to Cumbrae leaves from Largs and is a reasonable £20 for return trip (£34 if over 7metres) Crossing takes 10 minutes and the island has a good drive round it (10 miles). Main (and only) town, Millport, is relatively unchanged over the past few decades. Ritz Café traditional ices. Enjoy your stay and your new van.

We were going in the opposite direction Bob! We travelled from Strathclyde to Keswick on the 2nd! We also want to thank Jenny, after her talking about it, Santa brought Rummikub to us for Christmas. We've had great fun with it! Happy New Year to you both.

Enjoyed this upload and I thought Bob was going to tease you when you started filming his car, I must say thank you for filming my van in the storage compound. Take care and looking forward to your next upload.

What an eventful journey and start to your trip. When you see the van fire you realise why the clubs are insistent on separation distances, thankfully no one was hurt. Looking forward to seeing the rest of your tour, we do love Scotland, even when it’s raining. Come on Bob , make sure you say “bye then” 😂 best wishes and safe travels H&M.

I hate to see accidents, turns my tummy over, I hope nobody was seriously hurt. Bobs new car is lovely 😎 We may well have to end up at SC tomorrow for a stop over on our way North as Moffat is shut & our other half way spots are full or closed for winter 😏 Safe journey home, Em 💜

Hi Bob, Nice to see you and Jenny back in Scotland again. I see you were at the hunting lodge, pity they demolished the Hamilton Palace all those years ago, that would have been a sight to see. The black marble staircase that wase once in the Palace is now stored in the basement of the Hamilton Town Hall. Have you checked out the Mausoleum, its guarded by Two stone Lions ! that's the domed structure you can see from Strathclyde Park, on the other side of the motorway. Cheers Bill

We have just about got over our 7 hour drive to Bath and that was 3 weeks ago 🤣🤣 Winter driving definitely has its challenges but at least you arrived in daylight. We like Strathclyde Country Park. We actually stayed in the Hotel next to the Toby there once on the way to Skye. We decided to have a winter break in a cottage rather than drag the caravan all that way for just one week. Every time since then we have used the Caravan Park with our motorhome. Have an enjoyable few days and hope things are straight forward from here on. Safe travels ! Trev n Sue

Thanks yes, hopefully. We're enjoying our time at Strathclyde.

8:48 Don't feel too bad about getting the lanes wrong going around the Raith Interchange into Strathclyde Country Park. That roundabout is just about the least intuitive junction I've ever encountered. I live about 30 miles away from it and pass through it on average twice a month each way going to visit my mum, who stays roughly the same distance the other direction - and I STILL regularly make a pig's ear of it!

Hi Bob and Jenny thank goodness you are all there safe what a nasty journey I can sympathise as we have had the same here with the flooding at the moment in Worcestershire It looks a great site and accessible and clean I can see why you like staying there it’s a good base some great places to see there we love Largs have been many times and make sure you try the ice cream from Nardinis and go over to cumbrae it’s so pretty If you get time and Bob and Aileen know it alloway is gorgeous down the coast we got married there at the brig o doon hotel and it’s the hometown of Robert burns Also it’s lovely to drive from Largs to wemyss bay via the a78 and you drive up the river Clyde there are some great views Have a lovely time!

Strathclyde is an ideal stopover for us en route home via storage and we stayed there for one night in September. The only problem was the toad noise , just wondering if the serviced pitches are any quieter? although I doubt it due to park being surrounded by motorways.

I think if anything the road noise is higher on the service pitches. It doesn't bother us, just a background hum, mind you I'm going deaf!

It's long way round, but you can drive around the park if you don't mind all the speed humps.

If you're visiting Glasgow, watch out for the LEZ, if you're not Euro 6, then unlike England it's not a charge by a fine, £60 for the first offence increasing by an additional £60 per day -Day 1 £60, Day 2 £120, Day 3 £180...... tops out for Cars and vans at approx £290 per day, Buses and HGVs, keeps increasing until it reaches £960 per day. Ours in Dundee comes active at the end of May. My motorhome is Euro6, the car is not, just don't know how to the motorhome into the Multistorey carpark - maybe sport mode and a good run at it.
