This was our third trip to the Caravan Club website at Black Knowl.<\/p>\n

Organisation for these trips is getting a little more efficient and it takes just around a full day to load everything up and swap all the caravan stuff from caravan to car and to load the bikes of top of the Sorento.<\/p>\n

The weather forecast wasn’t good with weather warnings of severe wind and rain for much of the south of England and in particular Hampshire.<\/p>\n

The alarm sounded at around 07:30 and by 10:15 we had hitched up and were on the road, the satnav showing an arrival time of about 11:30 and a distance of around 60 miles.<\/p>\n

We arrived at Black Knowl at 11:50, ten minutes before the “allowed” arrival time but in light of the inclement weather we really wanted a hard standing pitch so we could also\u00a0erect Sue’s tent.<\/p>\n
