Ime not sure who runs this or even if Ime on the correct page if not perhaps you can direct me ?

Me and the wife were going away in the van in September , she,s been ill for some time and she passed away a month ago

devastating awful Ime not feeling sorry for myself but have been feeling dreadful ,as you would imagine

i decided to go away for a break from everything at a caravan club site but I think mostly couples would be upsetting so I saw the solos thing and think that talking to others this has happened to might be therapeutic , Ime really not sure , my loss is still very raw so what do you think ? A good idea or go to an ordinary club site

thanks for listening

Alan

I am sorry that your post got buried in a lengthy discussion, don't be put off by that.

There are lots of friendly people who also travel alone and would welcome your company.

I cannot copy my reply to your original post or another lengthy discussion may ensue but do look for a meet that you would like to attend and just turn up I am sure you will be made very welcome.

One life live it

Kind regards

Chris

Hi Alan - sorry that you're having a bit of difficulty posting. Be patient, many of our members are possibly out and about during the day. Pop in later and check for response.

Unfortunately, we don't have the facility to move a single post from one section to another so I'll leave yours here.

Hi Alan I lost my wife last September, I understand how  difficult it is. Give it a try there are many kind and sympathetic people out there, more people on club sites less on CL's do your own thing but give it a chance. Best wishes and good luck Clive

You are in the Solos section of the forum, Alonso. You will see there are various threads you can contribute to or you can start your own.

For non-Solo related discussions you have the numerous other sections to look at.

Alan - you are in the right section - there is a Thread called Diary Dates that is a Sticky (Stickies remain high on the page).  Also Solos chat in the Awning is a general chat area - and "Last Minute Breaks" is probably where I will post my whereabouts when I have finished assisting my daughter for the next couple of weeks in Devon.  I will make up my mind where or IF I explore more down there depending on how the next two weeks go and how the weather is looking for the next bit.  I hope you find what you are looking for and get a good break.

Hi Alan To find others areas scroll to the top of this page and you will see a heading in red typeface. Click in the part that says Solo Caravanning and Touring and you will find what you are looking for to the left of the page in separate headings.

Hope this helps
