Hello all

We (me the wife & 2 dogs) are new to this game, having had a van for about a month and a half.

We are getting into the swing of things though, with a couple of trips to relatives, a site stop, and a wild camp so far.

We live in Whitby, North Yorks around which there is lots of wild camping happening, so we will be the ones heading out of town as you guys are heading in

[jimmnlizz]

Southwold Norfolk for the best fish and chips without question. Whitby is lovely and a regular destination for me as we stay frequently in Staithes old town.

Try the fish and chips at Anstruther in Fife

This is just beside the harbour, quite often queues at the door.
SCRUMPTIOUS!

I have spent a few happy hours moored up in the harbour.

Have you ever tried to fry a whole cod in a Hymer.

 

[DCC]

Thanks for the welcome guys.

Whitby fish and chips are amongst the best, he said diplomatically, although a little more expensive than quite a few places.

Have you ever seen the size of a full Cod! Irrespective of what your stance is on fish stocks and bans etc it’s a fact that the fish (cod & haddock) landed today are far smaller than those landed 25 plus years ago.

By coincidence in our first ‘proper’ wild camp this weekend we stayed at Cod beck reservoir just outside Osmotherly in North Yorkshire.

We were a little dubious when 8 lads in two cars turned up at 7pm but they took their tents and put them up on the other side of the beck. Once they were settled I took the two dogs for a walk past them and had a little chat to establish their ‘humanisation’.

In the early hours the heavens opened and it lashed it down, the lads must have legged it back to civilisation.

Osmotherley rings a bell, in the 70s. I walked from there to Ravenscar, 45 miles I believe in 16 hours in what was known then as the Lyke Wake Walk,it nearly killled me
