We drove the short distance to Arras and pulled into our first Aire. Having never used one before we didn’t know what to expect! What a surprise awaited us. A motorhome parking site in the town itself. New tarmac, toilets, showers, fresh water, waste disposal, and free Wi-Fi all available. For a first Aire stop,Continue reading “Arras – Best Aire So Far!”

Early start and a long journey took us from home to Boiry-Notre-Dame. A drive to Folkestone and into France via L’Shuttle. A remarkably uneventful journey but one made in good time and with zero fuss. Boiry is a small commune just outside Arras. It’s a farming village with a population of around 500.

The British Grand Prix didn’t disappoint. Plenty of action on and off the track, all enjoyed from the outstanding views at Club Corner. It was good day for British drivers at the 2023 British Grand Prix, taking two out of three podium positions. Verstappen cruised to victory for his sixth win in a row andContinue reading “Race Day”

It’s the Lilium Jet, the first FDA and EASA approved all-electric vertical take-off and landing jet! They are looking to offer passenger and freight capacity, low noise, and high performance withContinue reading “The Future?”

All set up at the campsite ready for the British Grand Prix this weekend. After an early start and a trip to the Three Horseshoes in Henley, we dropped Billy off to play with Douglas and Norman and headed on to Silverstone. Can’t believe how many tents, Motorhomes, and Camper-vans are already set up whenContinue reading “Grand Prix Ready”
