Hello all, both wing mirrors attached,
Had a great time, no major problems
Thats a bit scary filling the LPG tank, but we did it
We love it, its the best thing we have done in our motorhoming years
the space!! the driving!! the cooking!! the bed!! the stare's!! its all just brilliant.
We havent done the black waste yet, we thought we'd cover ourselves in that on/in the privacy of our own
We are really looking forward to our next trip out, probably next week, we might try it with the toad
I must say that Naburn Lock park remains friendly helpfull and very welcomming,
one of those nice sites you always like to go back to.
We are so happy to be part of this very happy community

Hi,
Our first trip to a site was also to Naburn Lock. Agree with you a very welcoming and friendly site and good for getting into York or, in Sandie's case, the shopping outlet
Safe travels,
Dave
