Snow Hill Posted January 8, 2022 #29780 Share Posted January 8, 2022 It’s been grey and miserable day here, showers of rain off and on, quite cold outside when I fetched the bin, collection a day later this week. The sword of Damacles that was hanging over us for the last 2 days has been removed when my wife got a negative PCR test, she has had what we hoped was a cold, but had a inconclusive LFT Wednesday evening, there was what appeared to be a very faint line against the second line and I mean faint, followed up with a second LFT Thursday morning, but as she matched the Omicron symptoms apart from no high temperature decided on the PCR to be on safe side. So it seems it is a bad cold after all, so we are a right pair me with sinusitis and my wife with a cold, we are both relieved to know it’s nothing else. Rubbish nights sleep last night, so feeling awful today, hopefully better night tonight. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it a site that has caravans for holiday let or just one where everyone owns their own van? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As well as buying dehumidifiers you can rent the industrial ones depending on the size of the area affected. We bought one and it comes in handy from time to time for drying out things in winter that are too big for the tumble drier. What a brilliant idea👍 Avril Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most vans are owned but you are allowed to hire your van out if you wish dependant on some rules and regs from the owners of the site. There are some hire vans that the site owners / company hire out but these are few and far between. It is usually very quiet 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My worst month is November just after the clocks have changed and the evenings are getting darker earlier and earlier into the late afternoon, and the Remembrance period is important but understandably not the most jolly time. The worst month of the year for me is January, and not because it's my wedding anniversary month. It's a long dismal, dreary month, but when February arrives, the shortest month, then I know Spring will soon be with us. Avril 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely - we also have a land holiday booked for a week in April 2023 in Sorrento to experience their Easter so that is exciting too 🙂 Can't finish work yet though - will have to pay for it all some how !!!!!!

My mum used to hate February as well and could not wait to welcome in the Spring. When she lived in Wales March 1st was really special and out came the pots of daffodils in the house 🙂 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you were interested you could give them a ring. The caravans on the front are numbers A2 / A3 (we think) and there may be another one A18. Pete may know as he 'looks down' on us all 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 Edited January 8, 2022 by Presto2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a sad January anniversary too, which doesn’t help. I promised myself I’d buy a SAD lamp if I found the greyness too depressing, but so far (a whole 8 days into the new year!) it’s OK. We had a lovely sunny day on Wednesday, which was our group walk, so lots of human interaction too, so Vitamin D top-up and socialising boost too. I still might buy that lamp, but not just yet Roll on February 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bobstheboy Posted January 8, 2022 #29799 Share Posted January 8, 2022 We all handle winter differently. Prior to covid, we had a cruise, usually a bargain in October from the Med to the Caribbean. In February we hired a villa in Lanzarotte for a month, so there was always something to look forward to. Totally different now, but I prefer January to November, the days are getting longer and Spring is only weeks away, positive thoughts ! 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We do handle them differently, winters didn't used to bother me but they do now, we usually do a long Caribbean cruise between Nov -Feb. This year we are hoping to hire an apartment in Lanzarote for a month in Feb with the premise that if we enjoy we will extend to 6-8 weeks next winter. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
