Ferry Meadows site is dived into two by Ham Lane which is the road into Nene Park a country park with lakes,a train and miles of walks and plenty of space.
The main site is on the left coming down Ham Lane and the smaller site on the right which has mainly,but not exclusively,grass pitches and an enormous childrens playground,we are on the main one.
The site is very large and well used which belies the fact that,whilst being up to the usual CMC standards in cleanliness,is a little frayed at the edges compared with some CMC sites,and boy do they like their signs and notices.
Had further trouble with the main door lock jamming on the Cadiz which I eventually sorted with a bit of lubrication but I can see it needing replacement in the future.
I was sick of losing the TV and soundbar remote controls so invested in a couple of these:-
Not only do they hold the remote controls they also hold a mobile phone as well which is especially handy as I have positioned them above the front spotlight with its USB connections I had fitted last year.
Available from E-Bay at about £1.50 each.
I often,well every time,have problems finding Astra 2 when setting up the satellite dish so invested in one of these :-
It is easy to use and is much better than the "lights and squawk" device on the back of the dish.
The strange thing is that the retailer ( Satellite Superstore ) says you don't need to enter Lat. and Long. when you shift to a different region,but twice now it has not picked up Astra 2 until I have done so,strange.
Will give it another go without on our next trip and report back.
Oh and my Tilley lamp won't work again,spent a fortune on bits and pieces for it and it is still buggered,but of course works perfectly when I try it at home,hmm..........
