Packed up the van and after looking closely at weather forecasts we decided to give it a try. Bright sunshine on the P.P. gave way to heavy snow by the time we reached the tunnel. However, it was just rain in Liverpool so we pushed on. It was not to be. The M62 was chaos. Had it been gritted? Who knows? We got as far as Ikea in Warrington before we made the decision to head back home. We couldn't get off the sliproads as cars and lorries were struggling up the hills so we continued slowly until we came to the M6, where we could head back to Chester. After 20 years of caravanning this is the first time we've had to turn back.
We're disappointed because we love going to York, but on the plus side I've now got three free days to do as I please. Now that's a rare thing!
