Yes it is in the Britstop book, although I happened to find it on one of the motorhome pub sites:

We really like pub-overnighting and the Cali of course is a brilliant vehicle for it (provided you're prepared to rely on portable or otherwise ad-hoc ... ahem... "toileting" arrangements).
Sorry, off-topic, but what is your veteran car? Sounds brilliant.
Thanks VD. We will probably try the Tichbourne Arms sometime next week. Our regular grandparent duties have been suspended for a week over the Easter school holidays. So we're freeeeeeeee.
Yippee
The Veteran car thing is something for which I really need therapy. As with Mr Toad I too have always had an issue with lovely motors, these are the latest. "Oh bliss, oh rapture, oh parp parp".
This one's Henrietta, a 1912 Austin 10/12 Sirdar Phaeton. Registered in Shropshire one month before Titanic sank. It was shipped to France during WW1 to be used for the war effort. Afterwards it spent much of it's early life running a saw bench in a builders yard in Shropshire until they broke it!
Note Mrs B's yellow mittens. She makes a very effective direction indicator and and sat nav, shouting loudly in my ear if I don't obey her instructions.
Here we are stopped in the New Forrest so that I could retrieve the foot operated bell which had just fallen off. Situation normal!
This lovely old motor is Rene', a 1909 Renault AX. He was first registered as a chassis to the head chef at the Railway Hotel in York. He had a local coach builder make it's unique body. Mechanically, I liken it to a four wheeled concrete mixer, once started it will bang along all day quite happily.
It's a shame it's out of warrantee as I've just had to have the wooden rear wheels rebuilt. Still the original ones had lasted 108 years!
Strictly speaking our's are Edwardian brass era cars. True london to Brighton Run veteran cars have to have been registered before the 31st December 1904 to take part.
