Camping Exhibition

Well, we are definitely diverse in our choice of buildings to visit

from monumental castles,abbey's and ancient buildings

to TENTS!

Stewart and I have camped nearly every year of our married life

and we were both camping before that.

On the way to Charleston farmhouse we looked in

on a Camping Exhibition.

We are always looking for items to make camping interesting.

We were looking for a front awning to our 4 man tent and

a luxury item, a camping wood burner.

( The type Ray Mears uses in his Winter Expeditions).

As you can see by the photograph it was beginning to rain!

Oasis!

An Oasis Caravan on a very windy North Sea Coast!

Considering it was a two bedroom it was spacious

and had all what we needed.

Woodhall Spa Camping

Stewart and I took ourselves off for a camping trip to Woodhall Spa in Lincolnshire.

The Bainland Campsite is a really well organised and spacious.

This postcard was taken from one of the Liner posters,

from 1923-1930. The posters were

produced by the London and North Eastern Railway (LNER) to promote rail travel.

The artwork was originally created by Howard E Elcock.

Woodhall Spa was originally an Edwardian town, founded on 'spa water', discovered on the Lincolnshire heathland in the 19th Century. It became a fashionable holiday destination with many grand lodges and hotels.

We had a good time pitching the tent, walking, swimming and enjoying the peace and quiet.
