We went to Hayling Island for a week in the summer of 1971 and stayed in a caravan. It was not our first caravan holiday, but it is the first one I remember in enough detail to separate it from the others.

We went to Weymouth in August 1972 and stayed in a boarding house near the seafront. The week was wet often enough for the rain to become part of the daily planning, though not enough for Dad to admit the holiday had been affected.
We camped in the New Forest in August 1993 because it was cheaper than renting anywhere with walls.
Our first flight was to Majorca in August 1994.
We went back to Weymouth in August 1999.
