Greenacres Caravan Park - Nottinghamshire

The Arrival:

My person was very grumpy when he arrived here. Some people are scared of caravans - but I thought it was great!. Here I am in the middle of nowhere with lots of space to run around in! There is even a nursery with loads of greenhouses, and seeds for me to dig up. And when we arrived, the weather was being particularly clement. It all seemed too good to be true - and it was...

That night it turned very cold, and rained heavily. Unfortunately, the only warm place in the caravan smells of damp dog. I am trying to make it smell of cat, but I keep getting shouted at. Perhaps the best solution would be to sit so close to the gas fire that I singe my fur a bit. Then I will be warm AND make the place smell better. Unfortunately the gas ran out at about midnight.

The Survival:

My ploy of looking forlornly cold worked. The people have bought a fan heater to try and avoid condensation on their noses at night. They also bought a kettle. They plugged these in. And everything went dark. I looked condescending in the light of the gas fire that now worked again. Even cats know about the nature of caravan electrics.

I have not seen Dan use the shower in the caravan. I know Matt did, because I heard him banging around. I had a look in there afterwards, and I don't think there was enough room for both a person and water in the cubicle. Judging by the puddles on the floor, Matt won. Dan claims that he used the showers at the theatre, but I am making a point of sniffing him with my mouth slightly open in protest.

The Exit:

People have no stamina. At the end of the first week, they did a runner. On the Saturday morning, they bundled everything into the car and drove off. Fast. They say they will come back on Monday to hand the keys back...

The Verdict:

Caravans are great for cats. IN SUMMER.
