This was a weekend which revolved around dodging Midges ..Following a heatwave the rain came and provided an ideal environment for the pesky creatures and we were swamped with them, It didn't help that we chose a new pitch near the river. Thank goodness I always keep Avon skin so soft in the caravan so a few sprays and they left is alone .. well most of the time. Steve had the worst end but then he didn't use the shower cream I put in the shower so serves him right lol. Anyway we managed to get the awning up with the help of a few sprays of tropical midge spray and then bolted inside where I lit a citronella candle to keep them out of the awning. Unfortunately the fly screens aren't fine enough to stop them coming in so we spent the weekend with the windows closed!
But despite the midges and the frequent showers we still managed a few walks and got to spend some down time with each other and the dogs .. and enjoy the solitude of the latest pitch for us to try out ....

The side of the pitch ..lovely view sat in the awning
You can just make out the corner of our awning in the middle of the picture.
This was only Bonnie's second trip but she is a seasoned caravanner already ..
We're really looking forward to our next trip ...we've booked 6 nights at Fishguard Bay Resort, a stunning site in the middle of Pembrokeshire national park. Really hope the weather is kind as it's quite exposed ..will let you know.
