Life has got in the way of our motorhome touring, so it\u2019s no wonder that stepping back into him feels a little strange. Like putting on freshly washed jeans, it&#8217;s been a bit uncomfortable at first, but we&#8217;re slowing starting to remember how things work and ease into it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We haven\u2019t been sitting on the sofa watching daytime telly for those long winter months. We\u2019ve been running our AirBnB (which is going way better than we ever thought it would). We also flew over to Spain a couple of times to visit my brother who now lives out there, as well as a short stay in Howarth with friends, and a week in one of our favourite places \u2013 Whitby.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/ourtour.co.uk\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/20250220_185941.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"

this time Zagan has sat patiently in his storage space, still a little grubby from when we abandoned him after <a href=\"https:\/\/ourtour.co.uk\/home\/end-of-a-month-long-motorhome-tour-of-france-calais\/\">I drove us home from France due to Jay injuring himself<\/a>. When his MOT was due in November, we decided to delay it, knowing we wouldn\u2019t be getting away in him for a while.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As the winter dragged on, Jay focussed on his running. His goal was to finish in under 3 hours at the London marathon. This was his fourth attempt, and once again his training began back in November. He has run six days a week for five months, as well as gym sessions. He\u2019s probably now the fittest he has ever been. So, you can imagine the disappointment when the temperature crept up for the weekend of the race.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/ourtour.co.uk\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/476625148.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1030\" height=\"553\" src=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/476625148-1030x553.jpg\" alt=\"Jason running with along the Mall at the London Marathon\" class=\"wp-image-46633\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/476625148-1030x553.jpg 1030w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/476625148-300x161.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/476625148-768x412.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/476625148-705x379.jpg 705w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/476625148.jpg 1097w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1030px) 100vw, 1030px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The heat added around 10 minutes to everyone\u2019s time, and once again placed that elusive 3 hour mark out of reach.

Back then we were in &#8216;Harvey the RV&#8217;, an Autosleeper Harmony on a Talbot chassis, our first ever camper. On that trip we managed to rip his awning off as the wind picked up one night and we&#8217;d left it out. These days it goes in every night!! When we toured the NC500 a few years back, we had to skip some of this part of the coast due to time constraints. We promised ourselves that we come back and revisit it, and now feels like the right time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We have a six week window before we have to back home which will take us to mid-June. This means we should be a bit too early for the midgies to be in full attack mode (although the recent warm weather may have changed their normal habits). We should also be a tad too early for the Scottish school holidays, so places might quieter and easier to get parked.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We\u2019ve packed everything from swimwear to ski jackets as we have no idea what the weather will be like, but we\u2019re certainly looking forward to a bit of an adventure. Jay is currently sat looking for places to visit, so any suggestions would be very welcome. We\u2019re hoping to get back to one of our all time favourite campsites on Mull, but I suspect it might be a tad busier than when we were last there and virtually had the place to ourselves &#8211; apart from the coos!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/ourtour.co.uk\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Mull.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"604\" height=\"401\" src=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Mull.jpg\" alt=\"campervan parked up by the sea with cows eating the grass\" class=\"wp-image-46639\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Mull.jpg 604w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Mull-300x199.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 604px) 100vw, 604px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Fidden Farm Campsite on Mull, with magnificent sea views<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Ju x<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We&#8217;re back on the road in our motorhome for the first time in 2025.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":46634,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[417,39,415],"tags":[1922,467,644,134,1105],"class_list":["post-46628","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-motorhome-blog","category-uk-motorhome","category-at-home","tag-1922","tag-camper","tag-financial-freedom","tag-motorhome","tag-motorhome-touring"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.4 -
