With the weather a little unpredictable at the moment, I thought it might be a good idea to share your favourite games to play in your caravan or motorhome. Our firm family favourite has to be Dobble. It's lightweight so easy to take away with you. We still love some of the classics though! What do you recommend and why?

We just get out and about whatever the weather. Don't do games at home so why would we do them in the caravan, we do plenty of reading though.  Both the dog and I need to go out for walks every day so we just dress for the weather and get on with it.

Rummikub is our go to game in the caravan, expensive new but about £10/15 second hand on e-bay.

When the boys came with us we used to play Continuo.

I am not a games person either. I enjoy my jigsaws but they are not very convenient in the  motorhome. There are usually things you have to do whilst on a campsite regardless of weather and if it really does persist all day then I just have a snooze in the afternoonsmile

We take a lot of books with us. My favourite game is to get the map out or ACSI books and plan where to move to that’s sunny. Not in the UK though which is not set up for touring and where it’s difficult to escape bad weather.

Chess because it mimics real life.  The poor King can only move one step at a time, whilst the Queen can do whatever she likes. 😉🤣

We're both Kindle 'addicts' and like nothing better than settling down with a good book. Not surprising that I thoroughly enjoy crime thrillers - my favourite series being DCI Harry Grimm - set in and around Hawes that we know so well.

Mind games for us. I tend to cogitate for a couple of hours over a Cryptic Crossword or a chess puzzle/s. I leave the reading until later in the evening. We're not tele watchers so may have some music on or both disappear into YouTube land.

OH loves to sit there and draw or get her "caravan only" painting gear out and use whatever she can see as an object to be consigned to paper.

Will always make an effort to get out and about if we can either for a walk or visit a Historic place.
