Christmas / New Year caravanning?

Anybody heading away in the van for Christmas or New Year?
We do Christmas at home then head off on 28th until New Year's day, been doing that for a few years now, always enjoy it and it looks like its going to be fairly mild this year. Landrover - turning owners into mechanics since 1948

We have gone away most Christmas's and New years for some time now, but SWMBO decided she wanted sun, so I'm slumming it in Mexico as a one off. Laughing Updated- Waiting for a Scotland v England 6 Nations home win. 24th Feb 2018

Spent the odd Christmas under canvas over 40 years ago in the Lakes. We had snow then and the gear was not like today but with enough beer we didn’t feel the cold. We were members of a caving club so part of our being hard phase. Rolling Eyes FL2 MY10 TD4 GS traded in at 2 years

We will be away for 4 days between Christmas and New Year, do it most years.

Looks like the colder, drier brighter weather might be back - a very good thing!

. . . and 98% of them will have a terrible head ache but no idea how they got there! Everyone can spread it - Anyone can catch it. Stay home - the life you save can be your own!

We too will be away at a Centre meeting from 28th until New Years day. We have been doing this since 1990, meal provided each evening followed by a social for the remainder of evening with entertainment and dancing. Remember there are never problems, just new challenges
