May day Weekend in the Malvern Hills

Friday 2nd May we took the Motor Home to Malvern a nice quiet site behind the Duke of York Pub. We entered through the pub car park into the site and as we went onto the grass we just sunk into the soft ground how embarrassing. We had to get a Massey to tow us off and on to the side road where we spent the weekend.

 

The views were brilliant there was all sorts of wild life around us and farm animals

Just down the road there was a smallholding with all sorts of birds ducks and the most amazing peacocks and peahens

At one time we counted 12 peacocks/hens on the roof of the house.

We also visited Tewkesbury Abbey

 

And also the Trike centre a firm which converts your motor bike into a trike some wonderful bikes there. Geoff just trying one out for size

A nice long weekend got home on Monday 5th

ay at 12.45
