Can’t have enough bedding, it’s still cold at night in May. Torch/head torch, compact battery starter just in case (and they double up as a power pack) bus eyes for the windscreen and front windows…

I keep banging on about mine. The market has fallen out of the old air cooled campers. Get a mint one for £15k. £100 insurance, no road tax. Spend £300 twice a year at a specialist for servicing. Sorted. I did 4,500 miles in mine this year, no issues…does 60mph all day long…

It was only meant to be 9 miles to the train station and a leisurely train ride to Edinburgh to start Cost & Castles North, but it’s escalated somewhat…🤣https://cglencorse100greatestcyclingclimbs.blogspot.com/2025/03/coast-castles-north-day-1-scissett-york.html?m=1

Long day brought to an uncomfortably funny, depressingly hilarious end watching Steve Coogan’s Dr Stranglelove at the Noel Coward theatre…😊

You try to do the right thing, but £80 one way, change 3 times and a 2 hour delay on a packed dirty train for something that would have taken less time and cost £4 in an electric car…still here now and it was all downhill to the hotel in Leith…😊
