Background to the whole thing.

Hi my name is Pete and I was born in 1947 (you can work out my age yourselves). In June 2006 I decided I'd worked for long enough so started to make plans for my retirement. The only problem I had was that I didn't really have any hobbies, work was my main interest and that was no longer around.



I didn't fancy staying at home on my own during the day, so I had to come up with an idea that would use up my spare time. All my family are keen caravaners and we would go away at weekends and holidays. I came up with the idea of putting every Caravan Club site and every town with a CL that had electric hook up into Microsoft Autoroute with my home town as the start and finish then got the computer to sort them out into a route.



That gave me somewhere in the region of around 850 destinations. Staying 4 nights at each destination meant that it would take over 9 years to complete if I did it none stop. As I only tour From Easter to late October with several stops between for family events it was going to be considerably longer.



Anyway I started in summer 2006 and so far with family bereavement's, births and the occasional trip on a friends narrowboat I've so far manage to cover 77 of the destinations.



For a recent birthday I was bought one of those devices that allow me to go online whilst travelling so it was suggested that I keep a record of my travels. So here we are.



I havn't yet got the equipment for posting photographs but that should follow shortly.



So if you enjoy touring please follow my travels and if I can I will pass on any information regarding sites that I have visited.
