Hello from Aldbrough

Hi.
Well it is a good 3 months since we arrived back in the UK and we are back to the old routine at the caravan in Aldbrough.
We are not using the motor home as much with only a couple of trips off.
One to Beamish with the grand kids with a stop over at the Farnes Northumberland, and then we are going to the motor home show at Pickering at the back end of July, there are a couple of vans we are interested in looking at, and the show on Saturday night has Freddie Star on, it should be a right laugh.

At the end of July the motor home goes in for a face lift as we are having completely new foam seating and then re-upholstered including new drivers and passengers front seats. .

We have just bought a reversing camera from Maplins, and I am just going into Hull to purchase some electrical bits and bobs to hard wire it into the van so it is on when we are driving we can then monitor the trailer at the back, as I can't see it properly when driving. If there is a flat tyre the only time you would know is when it is on fire or somebody flags you down!.

The fishing at Aldbrough has been hit and miss at the moment with a couple of exceptions, I have been lucky enough to catch some noticeable fish, a couple of 18lb common carp, one mirror carp of 21lb and what appears to be the lake record a mirror carp of 24lb.10oz.
But as far as the matches goes nothing only bothering to weigh in once in 4 matches, still there is always this Saturday on Lambwath lake.
