  • Another first for us as Helen books us in to Reedham Ferry Caravan Park for a few nights. The weather was great and the tide was high!
    We take a riverside stroll and there are 3 pubs really close by serving fine ales and food.
    We hope you enjoy this one and if you have been here let us know what you thought to it.
    Thanks for watching.
    ATB,
    Helen & Dave

    We have just started towing our 7.5 metre caravan from a Mercedes E Class saloon, to our LWB campervan. What a revelation. No big square vehicle suck as they pull past you at speed and no caravan wiggle whatsoever, even at the 60 mph speed limit. I think that it must be that the combined aerodynamics of the van and caravan together means that the wind, just flies over the top and down the sides because the van is nearly as wide and as tall as the caravan and the extra weight of the campervan resists the other vehicle carriageway suck - Magic !
    The only down side is a little extra fuel and climbing very steep hills slower but much much safer.

    Hi Dave and Helen, think one of us commented previously about having something in common, here is another, we used to own a Pub too. In fact my wife is why I sold it, I wanted to spend more time with my new wife rather than drunk people. 17 Years later we bought a Caravan :) If you ever head to the West Country, we'd be pleased to meet up / offer a stop over.
    Vaguely amusing story about Dogs who don't like walks, my brother asked me ONCE to take his Toy Poodle for a weekend, no problem I said, short version, took him for the first walk with our Lab', 30 minutes in he lays down and won't move. Panicking I called my brother who laughed and said "oh he's fine, you just have to carry him the rest of the way!". When you own a Labradors for most of your adult life, a non walking fussy eater is a revelation!🤣🤣

    Another great vlog Helen and Dave. This looks a nice area. We kept thinking about visiting the lower broads when we stayed recently at White House Beach, but assumed the ‘real’ broads were up near the Norfolk Broads site where we had come from. Looks like we missed out, but one for next time. Im not sure about boats having struggled to reverse park a day boat outside a busy pub near Horning. What an embarrassment 😂 I gave up and found somewhere I could park side on and with no spectators. Think we’ll stick to the caravan and become a spectator watching others embarrass themselves. Are you going to Scotland this year? All the best Alan

    Love Norfolk never stayed at reedham ferry but certainly will do now. Last time we stayed at reedham ferry was on a boat many years ago, doesn’t seemed to have changed much. I seemed to think that when we walked into Reedham we walked via the road but I maybe wrong. With regards to the tide and the moored up boat we ended up on a slant because of the same situation all because we have tied the ropes to tight, took four men and a lot of pushing to release us from the bank.
