Back home - stop off on the A14 BP near Newmarket. Managed to avoid A14 delays at Cambridge via the A1198 to Royston. `Nice little trip to Edinburgh!

Durham to Clumber Park

Tonight we are at Clumber Park - stopped at Wetherby Services which has good Motorhome and Caravan parking, and some LPG for the refillable cylinders on the left hand side of the Car Pumps - easy to fill up!
