Doubt it .. traveling down thursday night, parking up with friends ... will sit in a nice warm 'van (shed) drinking some rather nice red wine, then do whatever we like until late Sunday night when we return ... the only things planned are relaxation, enjoyment and friendship .. :)

Norfolk for us, thankfully the caravan is fully double glazed and gas centrally heated as it seems like we will be needing it. Will also be taking the thermals etc. for when walking the dog on the beach - now where's that shivery smiley gone  ;)

It is a bit of a bottleneck around there. Go a few miles inland and the pace of life is a lot slower. Used to stay in the Umberleigh area a lot. A nice part of the world.
