Apart from Carole towing it about 12 miles and back to spend a weekend with the Hash, while I was in hospital. Missed our trip to France for whole of September, ferry booked and paid for at NEC last Oct.

Aim to use the Eriba fully next year.

Let's hope that next year is a better one for you both and that you have many happy travels. We didn't expect to get away much at all this year with Mark changing his job but we had quite a few one nighters which sometimes felt far too much trouble to prepare for but looking back we are so glad we did them. By doing these we found 2 sites not too far from home that we like so it was worth the effort. For next year we hope to have at least 3 weeks away along with mini breaks, fingers x it works out that way .happy travels to everyone for the coming year. Ellen

Are you planning a trip to France next year Derek?
Maybe the EOC do near La Rochelle?

For a host of silly reasons, business (staff holidays), family occasions, and health (not serious) we have not been away during 2013. The only Eriba movements have been to Jandi at the beginning of the year (service) and then a couple of weeks ago (water ingress check). We have, however, had numerous lunches and cups of tea in the van parked at the side of the house. Sad, intit? Roll on 2014.
