Our transit through England continued. We have an appointment in Warrington to service the rear air-suspension on the Hymer. Nothing particular wrong, but as Warrington is only an hour or so out of our way to Holyhead better safe than sorry. I booked the Hymer in a couple of months ago, so we make tracks north on the M5\/M6.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The M5\/M6 is four lanes each way, most of the time. Lots of trucks and fast movers, every ones in a hurry, so not the most relaxing drive. Although Pam managed to nod off here and there. We find a stop in Stafford and call it a night, deciding on doing the last hour to Warrington in the morning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The huge car-park in Stafford was not the most salubrious stop, but it was free.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

After a quiet evening in Stafford we continue on to Warrington and the Hymer\u2019s suspension is given the once over. After a pressure test we are given the all clear, no charge. We do a big shop at the nearby Morrisons and turn for Wales and the ferry terminal at Holyhead. It\u2019s a 90 minute drive on the A55 across northern Wales, we travelled through here in 2017 stopping at Llandudno and walking the Great Orme Head.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
