Camping: Hurst View, Lymington

Last Saturday we stayed over at Hurst View Camp site in Lymington for the night, its a nice camp site with nice clean showers and toilets and a small parks for the kids. The bonus on this site is they allow you to have camp fires! nothing beats camping with a camp fire!

Grace built up the wood for the fire then later enjoyed warming up her marshmallows on it lol.

There was loads of room around the camp site to fly a kite and play football without annoying other campers, always a good thing if you have a kid to entertain!

On Sunday we packed up and took a short drive to the seafront, we spent an hour or so crabbing (Grace got 5 or 6) then we headed home to Portsmouth, on the way back we stopped off in the New Forest for a few minutes so grace could have a look at the ponies.

Apex Festival 2014

I'm a bit late posting these, been a bit hectic lately.

Anyway here's a few photos from a very windy but very awesome weekend at the Apex Festival.
This show is a must for any VW/Motor sports fans as there's always action on the track, I enjoyed the drifting, love the smell of burning rubber at a race track!
The only downside to this years event was the lack of stores selling things, last year there were about 15 odd stalls, this year I think there were only 3 or 4!

As usual there was a convoy of us heading up from Portsmouth, one of our lot's break cylinder exploded on the way up and have to be recovered to the show then back home again after, apart from that the rest all ran fine again :)
