| Caravan Adventures with Christine & Dorothy 2009 At last we did it, we bought a caravan. So now we have a boat a canoe and a caravan. The caravan turned out not to be the cheaper end of the market as Kenny had hoped, but new and unused by any other person (as I had stipulated once I spotted some stains on a seat in a previously owned caravan!). And as Kenny then observed as only he can, "No one has farted in here before, it's all fresh and new!" So Dorothy became our newest family member. How the caravan became known as Dorothy I'm not sure, but it happened somehow and the name stuck. It suits her too, prim and proper, new and stylish. She's perfect. Christine on the other hand is nowhere near new but she's a classy piece of work, top of the range and well-built. We got her four years ago when Kenny needed to replace his work van. His love of Volvos was obvious as he drooled over her silver bodywork on the garage forecourt. And Christine was made to tow. Her 3 litre engine and solid estate build make her ideal. Christine and Dorothy are a match made in heaven. We hope you enjoy reading about our travels together. Kenny & Julie January 2009 |

Dorothy is an Avondale Argente 480/2
Unfortunately, Avondale have now
gone into liquidation, shame because
they made very nice caravans.

Caravan Adventures with Christine & Dorothy 2010
We have now completed our first year of Caravan Adventures
with Christine & Dorothy (and new addition Harry Honda) and
what a great time was had by all!
2010 looks to be another eventful year with trips already booked
to Bridport in April, Dartmoor in June and further ones vaguely
planned to Somerset and Devon later in the year.
Christine is now in semi-retirement and Harry Honda has taken
over most of the towing. However, when we get time for an
extended visit to the Lake District we will need Christine if we
decide to take the Scorpio canoe as Harry is not long enough to
carry it on his roof.
With our own retirement planned for the near future there will be
even more to read about, so keep coming back for an update!
Happy caravanning!

Caravan Adventures with Christine & Dorothy 2012
We did even less caravanning in 2011 as we had hoped due to
Kenny's shop and other work commitments.
During 2012 we should have time to do much more and we have
some new characters to include in our travels.
Christine has now retired and Harry Honda has taken over
completely, but he has a new rival in our newest addition, 'The
Black Pig', Kenny's black pickup!
Happy caravanning!

Caravan Adventures with Christine & Dorothy 2011
We didn't do as much caravanning in 2010 as we had hoped due
to Kenny starting up a plumbing shop in Wimborne Market. Being
open Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays put pay to some late
weekends away.
During 2011 we are planning trips to south Devon, Somerset and
Dorset, shop permitting! Our friendly house-sitters will be
looking after the place while we are away and providing a comfy
lap for our little cat to curl up on in the evenings.
Read all about our travels with Christine and Dorothy, not
forgetting Harry Honda as well!
