On our run up to the site we were delayed by a puncture on our caravan, which wasn't much fun.
At first my car felt like it was losing power as I started to ascend a motorway hill then when I looked in my mirror I could see a lot of smoke coming out of my caravan tyre. On the hard shoulder the traffic was very noisy and the caravan was being shaken by every truck that went past and I didn't feel safe changing the wheel so I called out Green Flag who came in about 45 minutes and sorted it out.
Only 8 other caravans were there and we met Eddy and Margaret again, who we'd met at the Easter rally last year at Cartmel.
The site itself is just basically a hard standing on the edge of the farmers' storage area, where he keeps his rubble and broken equipment and muck heap.
The Farm itself is a bit craggy island with a lot of the attractions not on or just absent. This was the 1st of March and the Christmas display was still present in the main hall, but with a few of the Christmas trees simply dead in their pots on a stage.
We had a good time in our caravan and a good chat at the Coffee morning.
We had a visit from a friend of Eddy's who brought his classic car to show and I was impressed by the quality of the rebuild.
