    Hi guys, my family is originally from North London (Tottenham, Edmonton, Wood Green & Enfield) and 50 years ago the extended family used to meet up at the Hertford site. Back then it was a big open field and every afternoon we would get a ride around the field on a trailer pulled by a tractor that was used to collect the rubbish from the bins. My uncle also let us steer his automatic Austin 1100 around the field whilst sitting on his lap. Those were the days!

      Hi Simon, fantastic memories, I can imagine the fun and laughter and probably lovely summer weather too. I (Dave) also learned to drive on a farm in an old Triumph Herald, couldn't get me out of it at the spritely age of 11 lol. Thanks for watching, much appreciated. Stay tuned! Helen & Dave

    We've loved travelling to Devon&Somerset over the last 3 weeks. Just returned home but...would've loved to stay longer. We'll return to your beautiful country!
    By the way....we tried your tipple... Ghostship.... and...really enjoyed it very much!
    Enjoy your holiday to the south!
    And we'll continue the holidayfeeling...watching your video's.

    Hi both, we had a blow out on the rear nearside car tyre on route home from the New Forest. Aside from the tyre it caused £2500 damage to our car bodywork. The reason I tell you this as we are dog lovers like you and the dog travels with us everywhere. We have the Caravan Club Mayday rescue cover. What we didn’t know (and this is the reason for my comment) is that Mayday will NOT let your dog travel in the cab of the recovery truck. It had to go in our car which was on the back of a low loader with the Caravan towed behind. It was a very hot day so we had the windows opened slightly. Can you imagine the noise , needless to say the dog was petrified and in a real state of shock when we got home, shaking and terrified. I thought you and subscribers with animals should know as it not made clear in the paper work or information.

    • @HelenandDave
      @HelenandDave  2 месяца назад +1

      This makes for a very interesting yet disturbing read. All dogs are different and although Bella is quiet and laid back we don’t think she would have been happy either. Sorry to hear of your experience and the damage sustained. I’ll cover this in a future video because it’s worth pointing out. Thanks for sharing and watching the channel. Helen & Dave 👍

    Hi Helen and Dave, not an expert on vacuum cleaners myself, so cannot comment any further there. I see Crows are still featuring in your reviews, saw a few last week at a Red Kite feeding site in mid Wales last week, they soon chickened out.. Hertford site looks nice, although we like Ashridge CAMC site as a stopover for our Southern travels, as Ashwell village is really nice and has quite a history to it, we stock up with supplies at the butcher’s there also, good quality fare to be had and a discount voucher is handed out at the site upon check in. Hope neither of you got seasick on the voyages😁, all the best, Mel and Lydia

    Caravanvlogger had a very similar road closed issue recently at a C&C club site. Not sure about your bird, maybe a juvenile buzzard. I absolutely love our Teppanyaki it’s so easy to use and clean up afterwards. We were camping en masse and met up with all our friends for brunch last week, they were concerned because I hadn’t started ours but ten minutes later mushrooms, tomatoes eggs and bacon all done. Were your burgers Wagu beef? Aldi do them, they’re delicious.
