A bit different to our usual style of video, as bad weather up in Scotland stopped play. You join us on the last day of our November 2023 tour, we unfortunately didn't film much on this trip. In this episode I cook us our last meal in the van on this trip and have a chat about the trip and give you a few van hacks & tricks. Please give us a like and a subscribe, it really helps us.
Check these videos out for the places we visited.

This campervan allows us the freedom of travelling in all seasons, we actually do most of our travelling in the Autumn/Winter as I have lupus disease | SLE | We stay on campsites & caravan touring parks, Aires & wild camp out in nature. We like to walk | hike with our cocker spaniel dog "Charlie" taking in breathtaking scenery of the countryside and the coast. There is something so magical about driving through the mountains and tourist areas in a campervan. Buying local produce to take back and cook in the campervan, or stopping at an independent shop for coffee and cake helping to support the local economy.

Absolutely loved your recent vlog! 🚐 I also struggled a bit with finding the right balance of gear this last trip. Overpacking is real! 😅 The stag chili with Mexican rice looked cozy and delicious 🌶🌮. Definitely feel you on the melamine struggle - I’ve had plates crack on me too! Thanks for the honest review and the van life tips!

@vansforthememories 2 месяца назад

There’s definitely a fine line on the packing front 😂 Glad you enjoyed it, thanks so much. Em 💜

Lovely Jubbly. We’re gonna take rice and pasta and tins to Scotland next week. Great for a quick meal Sue agrees on the melamine - we started off with them and switched to proper plates pretty quick! Safe travels you two.

@vansforthememories 2 месяца назад

Yep the easier the better in the van I say 😂 We’re up in Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 atm 😎 Oh I hate melamine, I do have a couple of the plates in the van for sarnies though ☺️ Where you heading? Thanks, Em 💜

Important to have a break Em. Hope you’re ok. Pleased you found the camera. I struggle with multitasking too these days (E) Corelle is pretty good vancrockery. A bit pricey tho. Take care 👍😊

@vansforthememories Месяц назад

Hi 👋 Yeah I struggle a bit on long trips tbh (struggling at the moment as it’s been sunny) but determined to see it through 😂 Even though, not picked the camera up much again 🤭 I’ll look at those, thank you 🙏 Em 💜

Melamine’s crap, I use tough plastic deep plates, cups n bowls microwave and dishwasher safe, light tough and the bottom of the cups don’t fall out if you put boiling water in em lol 😂…. Glad you had a nice chill out folks x 😊❤

It's mad how you can lose things in a small space, I'm always losing stuff iny tiny camper lol. I love the Mash Direct stuff cos it's gluten free, so great for me. Their beer battered chips are amazing! I have melamine pasta bowls, they're really good.

@vansforthememories 2 месяца назад

@tonysutton6559 2 месяца назад

with a four burner hob & grill, we don't feel the need for cooking "gadgets". As well as a set of cheap, nesting camping saucepans, we have a decent frying pan, a small pressure cooker and my large Ridge Monkey. As for coffee, I'm happy with instant stuff. We've never had any problems with melamine plates and bowls over the last15 years, no matter how hot the food has been, I've even had vindaloos. Where did you stay in Moffat?

@vansforthememories 2 месяца назад

Hi Tony 😁 We have the air fryer for when we’re on hook-up to save on the gas, same with the slow cooker 😁 We must have just been unlucky with the melamine cracking 🤷‍♀️ I think on that occasion we stayed at the Moffat ccc as The Green Frog was closed for winter. Thanks for watching, Em 💜

@tonysutton6559 2 месяца назад

@@vansforthememories I can see your point about saving gas but with the two of us plus two dogs, saving space (and weight) is more important. We also tend to spend about half of the time off hook ups so the electrical gadgets would be of less use to us. . I might change my mind if the gas bottles get harder to find.

@vansforthememories 2 месяца назад

@@tonysutton6559 yeah it’s all a balancing act isn’t it 😂 Our gas sized bottle is virtually nonexistent atm, it’s the size calor pulled last year but have now reinstated it, but it’s gonna be a few months before you can get hold of one! We’re touring at the moment & mainly off-grid, so hoping we don’t run out! Up in Braemar atm & it was snowing this morning 🙃😂 Take care Em 💜
