On holiday currently, arrived at a caravan touring park called Eye Kettleby Lakes near Melton Mowbray yesterday afternoon.
I gave Doris ( the caravan) a thorough clean before we left and now we are set up, including inflating and securing the Air awning which gives us a bit of extra space.
Click the link below to see photos and I will be adding to the album as we go through the holiday.

Would have been a lot funnier if you hadn't explained Doris was a caravan. :cool:

My wife named the caravan.

Went out for a Sunday roast today to a little pub called The Fox and Hounds in a village called Knossington.


Delicious.

Nipped out today and into Melton Mowbray for a wander about.
Steeped in history ( the town, not me) although the church was not open to the public today so I wasn’t able to take photos inside.
On behalf of the Forum I did carry out some extensive research and can indeed confirm that Melton Mowbray pies are most palatable.
Added just a few photos to the album.

Thanks, we have Doris set up now just about right for us.
The reason for photos of the awning pegs in the ground is for my benefit as this positioning of them gets the awning set up nice and square which is how it should be - also prevents water pooling on the roof if we get a heavy downpour.
Really enjoying this holiday and the site is very well appointed.

Been out and about today… it’s been very blustery overnight and throughout the day but the air awning has held fast.
We went to have a look around Market Harborough followed by a lovely drive across country via the B664 to Oakham …. would love to ride that route on a motorbike!
En route to Oakham we drove through a little village called Sutton and the church there looked so picturesque that I turned round and went back to take a couple of photos.
A nice day out and now back at Eye Kettleby Lakes enjoying a drink and reading a book.
Numerous photos uploaded to the album.

Out again today, this time to Rutland followed by a visit to the very pretty market town of Stamford.
The weather gods were with us today and as such I took the opportunity to take a few more snaps and add them to the gallery.

Also, following my superb singing in the shower, I am now just waiting for the site team to invite me to entertain the rest of the guests with my vast repertoire of vocal prowess….
