Hi Maureen

Love the photos, especially the one of Drena with her hands full! LOL :-)

Spooky that we weren't a million miles away from each other that week. We were in Cirencester 9th/10/11th!!! See my blog for photos.
There were 2 of the 'teardrop' caravans on the CC site while we were there and one of them had an awning up, twice the size of the caravan!!!

Happy dayz!
