    Bye bye NP - see you after the blackout weekend!
    ...much enquiry having been made concerning a gentleman, who had quitted a company where Johnson was, and no information being obtained; at last Johnson observed, that 'he did not care to speak ill of any man behind his back, but he believed the gentleman was an attorney'.

    Evening all! Didn't expect to be here. Reporting in to say that first day out with DH went well. Won't be able to repeat quickly (I think we both need a rest...). But he got out of the house and that's the important thing. It was a big ask too. We went to the Anniversary Games in London which we bought tickets for before we knew this was all going to happen. I would have been happy not to go but he was determined not to let me down. So we meticulously planned a route that wouldn't require too much effort.

    We bought tickets for tomorrow too in the good times, but won't be able to go to that as well - too big an ask.

    Go camping, beside the cake. Lock up the house and tramp some cases and a tent into the field. Get out your camping stove, local tourist information leaflets and ordnance survey map, then work out where you're going, as a tourist. Then, visit a pub for Sunday lunch that you didn't know existed until you saw an advert in one of the tourist brochures.

    Leave home Friday night, return Sunday night ...... a tourist in your own garden.

    Actually ... have you ever looked into becoming a "pop up camp site" in the summer? There are some rules/regs/laws that mean it's possible to do it for a few weeks without any special permissions. Check with the Caravan club. Some people like "no services".

    Edit: http://www.caravanclub.co.uk/about-us/run-your-own-site/setting-up-a-certificated-location

    Pop up tents might be better than caravans. :) if it is possible. Reading that link if we had caravans you cannot have tents and I think it likely we will need shoe term ( one weekend a year) tents in the future, hopefully quite a few more than five.

    As for us, we want to do something sort of 'life improving'. If we stayed here there is no chance of us being on 'holiday' being respected. :(.
