Thanks for sharing your tour, looked like you both had a lovely time without any mishaps, it's given us a bit of confidence to think about a similar tour in the future. Thanks again and keep on posting.
Great video, looks amazing and look forward to the next episode, we are planning on doing Spain later in the year and would be great if you put up the What3Words location of these places as it narrows it down to about 3 square metres & makes it easier for others to find..
I thought I would give you a weather update here in West Yorkshire, Shipley. I feel sure that you both would want to know what it’s like here. Well, woke up this morning, filled the car with hedge trimmings, went to the tip at Downey Gap. 1C yup, 1C. It did creep up as the day went on, and as dusk falls it has turned very grey and dismal. Now then, please do not think that we are jealous, cos we’re not, nope, not at all jealous! We don’t mind at all, watching you two in all that heat and sun! Susan is off to Superdrug in Bingley tomorrow to get a bottle of sun tan oil, I think we may need it when we watch your next episode!!!! Brilliant video by the by, thanks so much for sharing!
Hello👋🏻, I have just found your channel whilst searching for info re recent motorhome travel through France and Spain. We have been caravaners then motor-homers for a fair few years, but due to COVID our planned trip abroad is only just coming to fruition. I would just like to say I’m so glad you are covering what really matters rather than just a sightseeing trip. Routes, aires, free stops, campsites, facilities, prices, what’s needed to obtain facilities, safety ( how it feels) happy motorhoming👍☀️😎
Great video Andy, We stayed in a site called el Torres in villajoysa is that the beach in front where you were fishing. Looking forward to next episode 🤙🤙
Hi I’m on the second viewing of your Spain trip as we are off in our Motorhome on the same trip as you Feb 2023 for the first time and it’s quite daunting! Did you book the site in Benidorm in advance? Also the aires and other sites you stayed in. I’m going to watch them again and make notes of where you went as it just looks fab. Thanks for the videos!
Hi David I seem to remember we booked the Benidorm site but all the others we took a chance on. It was quite busy when we went as Morocco and Spain had fallen out. This led to all ferries being cancelled, subsequently all the germans and dutch who normally went to Morocco were in southern Spain. Make sure you have search for sites app, it was invaluable. Also consider getting an ACSI card if you're going to use mostly campsites. Most of all, enjoy. It's a pleasure driving over there.
Try Tortuga Mora just north of Aguilas a little bit further south from where u are a very rustic site , we paid 8 euros for night inc elec n water, best beach bar in world fresh Sardines n various seafood you could be in Caribbean only open mon - Sunday. Love ur vlogs
Great video guys, looking forward to your next episode. Most of my questions have been covered (What3words, solar & battery) but what UK mobile networks are you both on and are you incurring any additional charges? Pick our new MH up week on Saturday and already planning for following in your footsteps later in the year. Enjoy your travel guys, jealous…….VERY jealous! Andy & Bev
Both on monthly sums with plusnet and gifgaf. You get a fair usage of data which I think is 25 GB. I bought a vodafone and orange payg sim over here for additional data. About €15 each.
To be honest we havent watched tv since we've been away. However when we do watch it we watch netflix and amazon through a firestck. I think the only way really is to have a satellite dish.
Hi love your videos which I have just discovered....a question about the LPG...does your motorhome use bottles of gas or an onboard cast canister? Cheers Keith
Hi great video.Wondering where do you empty your waste when off grid for so many days.?We would love to stay somewhere like that. Enjoyed the relaxed content.
If you're careful loo will last 3-4 days then we'd have to find a drop off or site for a night. Grey normally lasts 4 days and same with fresh but have a few spare bottles. Some folk have a spare toilet cassette. Some fuel stations have miho service points.
Can I ask what you do with your lovely dog when you are out on the bikes. Have you encountered any parts of your tour where you were restricted by having the dog with you. We have 2 that will be travelling with us second week in January for 6 weeks and our 1st time. Here in Wales it is usually low enough temp to leave them in the van for a couple of hours. Thanks for the videos, very informative.
Hi just been watching your blogs you did one on Peugeot boxer not starting we have campervan a Peugeot boxer so some good info for us I'm retired just wife nearly there Steve n janet enjoying your blog's because of covid which I have just got not traveled around Spain as planned going try though this year hopefully if you don't mind can I give you my email incase we need any tips etc only if you got time if not no worries thake my hat off to you both .. Steve ....n Jan
Hi Steve. My wife Gill got covid bought before we were due to leave on the trip. We may have said in first video. Feel free to email for advice. Just travelling back through France. Tunnel thursday morning :)
What camp site did you use in Benidorm, we are heading there in the next three days, after visiting one of our Davy places, Denia. We lived half an hour away from it a few years back
Hi Andy, I have the same layout accordo 125, never done longer than a few days at a time in it, always seems cramped, would you recommend doing a long road trip in one
We managed ok Joe. People out here on winter trips have bigger vans but we've been fine. Depends how much space you need. Weather big factor as you live outside more when it's warm enough. :)
Check what your uk will give you abroad to start with, usually a limit of 25gb. I bought a couple of days sims for my on board router. One orange, one voda. Been ok but didn't last long. 15gb each.
100w solar and 100ah leisure battery. I have struggled a bit as I've been needing to charge my laptop battery which is 18v so have been using a 300w inverter which drains battery. A Jackery would be good if you have the funds. I'm tempted to up my solar a bit and add a battery. Perhaps 200w solar and 2 x 200ah batteries. :)
Thanks for the post. Everything is looking and sounding fantastic down there.
Great thanks but diesel price creeping up. Got to get home yet. :)
Nice one guys, still trying to persuade Mrs K to finish(I'd do it tomorrow) but now she has the cost of living crisis in her arsenal. Cheers K.
Put your foot down! Lol. You won't regret it :)
Evening, just watched the blog very good we were sat sat having a coffee at the beach stop on Monday we go there all the time.
Thanks for sharing your tour, looked like you both had a lovely time without any mishaps, it's given us a bit of confidence to think about a similar tour in the future. Thanks again and keep on posting.
No probs, new video out at the weekend. Go for it, YOLO as the young folk would say :)
Great video, looks amazing and look forward to the next episode, we are planning on doing Spain later in the year and would be great if you put up the What3Words location of these places as it narrows it down to about 3 square metres & makes it easier for others to find..
Hi Neil. I did start recording the what3words at some sites but forgot to keep it up. The co-ordinates on SFS have been spot on though. :)
Nice one 👍 thanks for that, we're heading down there in April so definitely going to check a couple of those stops out.
Take Care Steve and Jan 😎
No probs. Some great stops down here, as you've seen :)

Just left Tortuga Mora a few days ago, it will be in the next vlog. Domingo is a great guy and lovely site. Beach bar not open until April. :)
Isn't retirement awful?

excellent well informed video, what was the site you used at El Campello
Area Natur Playa Muchavista. It's on search for sites.
Hi guys👍 Enjoyed the vlog again 😎 do you need anything special to get uk tv in the van please
Cheers 🐧🐧

Hi love your videos which I have just discovered....a question about the LPG...does your motorhome use bottles of gas or an onboard cast canister? Cheers Keith
It's a 12kg gasit refillable bottle. I also installed an external filter cap :)

@@KissisAdventures Thanks a million. I think we’ll invest in a second cassette!

We don't have any dogs, lovely or otherwise. :) most places are dog friendly in Spain as far as I could see. :)
@@KissisAdventures sorry thought I saw you in first video 😂😂 watched that many yesterday

Arena Blanca :)
Sorry also do you need any special tap adapter to fill your water
Ta 🐧🐧

We managed ok Joe. People out here on winter trips have bigger vans but we've been fine. Depends how much space you need. Weather big factor as you live outside more when it's warm enough. :)
Loving the videos hope to be there soon, what sim card do you suggest
Check what your uk will give you abroad to start with, usually a limit of 25gb. I bought a couple of days sims for my on board router. One orange, one voda. Been ok but didn't last long. 15gb each.
Data sims
Bought the additional sims in Spain btw. They'll ask to see your passport.
Hi Andy
How you keeping Batteries charged etc? Solar panel? Do you have a jackery?
100w solar and 100ah leisure battery. I have struggled a bit as I've been needing to charge my laptop battery which is 18v so have been using a 300w inverter which drains battery. A Jackery would be good if you have the funds. I'm tempted to up my solar a bit and add a battery. Perhaps 200w solar and 2 x 200ah batteries. :)
When’s your next film ?
Just working on it. Hopefully about Thursday :)
English people saying spanish town names 🤣
