CARAVANNING HOLIDAY IN TEWKESBURY AT MILL AVON HOLIDAY PARK FOR Tewkesbury LIVE festival 28/07/23
Nice video, I always empty the flush tank at the end of each stop into a container ready to put back in next time. Also run clean water through the tank every couple of months when I’m checking the camper and never had any black bits and the pump always works. I do use the 40shot range of products and find that they are very good and think they also help limit the chances of black bits.
Hi, thanks for watching, yes we use the 40 sort stuff ATM, seems ok 👍
Happy Birthday Sadie! Looks like you've had a great time away so far and looking forward to the next part. Interesting to know about the fuse, we'll keep an eye on ours! Enjoy the rest of your time away!
Thank you it's been a lovely few days. Sadie 😊
Great Vlog, lovely update of the CS and York. Happy belated birthday wishes Sadie, looked like you had a great day. Thanks for taking us along with you 😀😀 Tris & Nikki
Thank you 😊
Lovely video - nice background music. I hope you had a really lovely, memorable birthday Sadie. Btw, I’ve just come across your recipe videos - great idea. We are Vegetarian but run out of ideas for cooking - you always have delicious meals. 😋
Thank you 😊
Hope you had the best birthday ever, you deserve it lovely, fab video. Hope you got thoroughly spoilt lots of love Kim and Andy xxx
Yes I did, thank you so much xxx,
Mine has stopped working recently. Fuse is ok, but not had time to look further into it. Will do this today and hopefully I'll solve the issue. Good video very handy information. Thank you
Glad to be of assistance!!!
Hi me and wife just returned from san stefanos stayed at Thomas bay loved it but was wondering if you could recommend any apartments near beach that are good and do you need to book flights separately or can you book altogether thanks
Hi thanks for watching, the only apartments near the beach we've stayed are the ones in this video and we do recommend them - views are spectacular and in a quiet part of town.
We booked flights sperately - we find this usually is the cheaper option.
Hi what was the name of apartments thanks
That’s so funny, have a drink instead 😂
Good handy bit of information there, thanks for sharing. I had heard of using the puriclean in the toilet flush tank before but never got round to it - my next job. Have a great time in York.
Yes it deffo seems to help, also noticed the pump is a bit quieter.
Mr and Mrs would not be a good idea for us, i would end up in deep trouble lol
Great intuitive update always handy to know thanks for the Vlog mate 😀😀
Thanks good to now. But DON'T use pink stuff. We use zoflora or Aldi's own. Thankyou. X
I think the black bits is algae, caused by the pink rinse fluid. The system can be cleaned out with bleach.
Mr & Mrs - we remember the TV version, so showing our age, lol.
Where are you stopping this year
Hi, this video was this year, won't be going again until next year (2025) not sure where we'll stay, probably Christina's again.
Another top vlog my man Just been filming some of my pre travel vlog San Stefanos on Wednesday!
Wowzers! Looking forward to your output. Good luck with the heat!
Hopefully going to upload as I go along Vlog every couple of days or so
So funny watching you two play 😂😂😂
I think Andy takes long in the bathroom but he would say it’s me 😂 great vlog guys.
Definitely don’t play Mr and Mrs again!! You’re heading for trouble with that!! 😂😂😂
That was really funny - watching you trying to play the game. 😄 everyone chills out differently - I enjoy a game of Upwords (‘cos I’m better than OH 😄) or just day-dreaming. Have a lovely time in York.
Agree with you on the not doing games... we are always out and about with the dogs, or at shows where there is loads to do, or just chillin' listening to some music
We like your pitch view and £35 for fully serviced is good value. Are you allocated a pitch or can you choose one? Tewksbury and surrounding area looks very nice 👍. Cheers, Rob & Gail 😀
Hi guys & thanks for watching - yes it was a lovely pitch and the view was priceless (in the nice weather!) - other people are saying it's good value, so I guess it is, s'pose we're used to paying £10 - £20 for CSes these days. We asked to go next to the river then he allocated that pitch for us.
Please don't forget to subscribe! -- thanks!
Lovely couple - love your great lifestyle!
Thanks, Stan, yes it's great!
We enjoyed watching your vlogs, but liked that you filmed from home to Tewkesbury Caravan Site. We look forward to your next one from York. As you say "Laters Taters" to you both. Chris and Janet
Cheers guys, great to hear from you and thanks for tuning in! Yeah, York's going to be great, Sadie's birthday and at least one gig!
Thanks for taking us along with you both, Tewkesbury is lovely, the music festival looked great. That’s not bad per night all services pitch over looking the river. Always great to see your updates and also agree the sun canopy’s are great and so easy and quick, we’ve also just purchased one 😀😀 Thanks again Tris and Nikki
Hi guys, thanks for watching, glad you enjoyed the show! Yes I suppose it isn't bad value for money especially considering it's location - and the view is priceless, when the sun's out! Yes the canopy is perfect for us - shade from the sun & shelter from the rain - sorted!
Thank you for the recommendation video. Permission to repost your video to VuPlex social media. Thank you
Hi Diana - yes, sure, thanks for asking, you've just reminded me to get a new can of VuPlex - when I was making the video, it fell out of my pocket & the can can ruptured, spraying VuPlex all over my driveway!!! - was completely empty after that!
Thanks for sharing. £35 would still be too much for us - despite water on tap 😉 and the nice view (in one direction) but it was really handy for the festival. What Cadac have you got - I like the vegetarian breakfast you did, what else do you use the Cadac for?
Yeah, but that view..., mind you, if the weather was rubbish, different kettle 'o fish! It's a Citi chef, it's lovely but the base is warping a bit as it's made out of plastic. We love it, we cook everything on it. We use it as an oven to bake stuff, including pizza (we've got a pizza stone). As well as fry just about anything, or boil anything in a saucepan or foil container. It's great!
@@CaravanningwiththeMrs Thank you, I’m going to have a look at one of those.
Hi we love Tewkesbury we stay on the caravan club site Tewkesbury abbey. We are there in September. Great place. X
Thanks for watching, that's great! Hope you have a smashing time, expect the weather should still be good.
Get the roof seals checked , before they become an issue, nobody seems to do preventative checks , they just seam to love giving you the bad news when it’s to late !
Thanks for your comment - do you know how do I check the roof seals?
Thanks for sharing this review of the Jackery. I often wonder about getting a solar panel on our caravan and whether to get a power bank. Still wondering …. So much to think about. We only go on CL/CS sites too but always with hook up. So far, not been on any where the electricity has been metered. I think our main electricity needs are heating - my OH likes to be really warm 🙄 and likes watching a bit of tv in the evening. We have indoor storage so not sure whether a solar panel is worth the effort/cost (also considering our weather 😕).
Hi, thanks for watching. Yeah not sure what I'd do in your situation. This video may be if interest - I'm stress testing the solar panels mid winter. czcams.com/video/8xXj75YHPiA/video.htmlsi=PJC-bEPwZ5kLtOVc
@@CaravanningwiththeMrs Thank you, I’ll have a look.
Mmmmm! If you're expecting the underfloor of a caravan to remain dry at all times then you'll have a big shock. Driving in rain sends spray under the van and it gets wet. Usually it dries off, as mentioned in the video, and no harm is done. The only time you need worry is if the edges of the van floor remain damp as it's constant damp the generates wood rot. There's also an oddity demonstrated in the video that water that runs down the walls somehow manages to work its way around the floor edge and permeate the underneath ply surface. That's a well known phenomenon and is the reason window sills have a groove along the bottom to interrupt the water doing that, causing it to drip off before it reaches the house wall. Unfortunately caravans don't have sills and can't have that sort of interruptor. I have heard of folk fitting thin strips of plastic along the floor edge so that they protrude below the floor and water drips off the edge of the plastic and doesn't creep up the back and onto the floor surface. I'd be concerned that the solution you mention are going way over the top and aren't really necessary unless the wood is spongey when dry, which indicates that its integrity is compromised. Messing about cutting out stuff leaves exposed edges that didn't exist before and can lead to worse problems later on. prevention of the problem in the first place would be a better way forward.
Great video. Thank you for nominating us. I’m sure we’ve never had any mishaps 😂. Give us a couple of days and we will sort something out 🤦♀️🤦♀️ - Kim and Andy 😊 xx
😂😂😂
Thanks for joining in Guys, a valuable lesson re wheel torque. It’s great to see the round Robin is still rolling along. You can blame Colin’s Caravan Capers for starting the ball rolling 😂😂
Thanks chap, great idea!
On our last trip away we had to make a sharp left hand turn into the site and fortunately noticed in time that the near side caravan was dangerously close to the gate post so had to do some tricky reversing at a sharp angle which damaged the pads in the stabiliser. I should have raised the stabiliser handle to loosen the tow ball - didn’t know that 🙄. Drove back home with sweaky hitch.
I've had a squeaky hitch a few times, something in hot weather & sometimes when we get it back from the dealer - I presume because he has a dirty ball (!) but I don't think a squeaky hitch necessarily means it's on its way out or has been damaged.
@@CaravanningwiththeMrs unfortunately, our pads were damaged ☹️
Can I ask what the problem with the motor mover was at the beginning of your vlog? We arrived on a CL yesterday and used the mover but half way through, it stopped working.
We're pretty sure it's radio interference but don't know what from, had the engineer out loads of times and occasionally it happens in site. At least now we know about it, I just keep my finger on the button and eventually it starts working again.
Great video! Brave to admit all those disasters, we all do them 😀
Thanks for sharing, great vlog
Cheers, thanks for watching, just watching one of yours now (if wouldn't mind subscribing, pleeeeease!)
Thanks for that. I subed to your channel the week you joined
Thanks for sharing guys, love our powerbank too.
Can just see you two having a disco in the van!
Ooops. Hardly any of our gadgets fitted your 😅 did go through a kindle stage and got loads of books on it, now gone back to books again. Just like the feel and smell of paper 😀
Great vlog guys some great gadgets Kindles are brilliant and so much better than having a lot of books and blue tooth speakers are great we put ours out in the awning when away in the caravan. 🤗
Hi you two you need to up grade to kindle fire my wife loves it
Thanks for sharing - I saw your Haloview camera - I’d love to get one myself.
Doing a great job , well done. We arrive Monday, you've Benn feeding me well😅😅.
Excellent! - thanks for watching, have a great trip and a smashing holiday!!!!
Great video. We have the lights that you have for your wardrobe in our Citroen Ami 😊 - Kim and Andy xx
I'd be interested to see a review of that car!!!
Great vlog guys, thanks for sharing.
Thanks for sharing. You can’t beat a good powerbank😀
A great selection of gadgets there.... like the Bluetooth speaker. As you say Bose has a great depth of sound. I have to admit I have a kindle, but as I can use the kindle app on my phone . I don't carry the kindle device around much. Easier to take the phone
Thanks for watching - yes I know what you mean, but I do think the Kindle has a particularly nice screen, especially if you're gorping at it for hours on end like the Mrs does.
Another excellent video Kevin and Sadie! Really enjoyed seeing the gadgets you use. We've just been kindly given an EcoFlow power bank by my mother-in-law as she doesn't use it so we're looking forward to going to some CL's and being able to use 240v electronics whilst away. Great watch, thanks 😊
Hi guys, thanks for watching & commenting - yes, you'll save loads of cash & will be able to go to some lovely small sites. CSes are our preferred option now.
Fantastic video. Looks like you have had the bestest time our friends. Sadie looks beautiful as ever, I’m not sure I would cope in the heat (Kim). Hoping we can all get together again at some point. Love to you both from me and Andy xx
Thank you both it was lovely and much needed. You're so sweet Kim thank you but don't feel it. The heat was too much definitely. It woukd be lovely to meet up soonish. Lots of love 😘 xxxx
