    Your time with the GKs sounded wonderful milann. And I loved your dolls house furniture. 🥰

    Congrats on the motor home too.  How exciting! I can foresee some great trips to Wales!  Will you take the GKs away with you?

    SSG we won’t be able to take them away with us as it’s only a 2 berth but we can take them out for a day trip as it has an extra seat with enough seatbelts for 4 😀 They’ll be happy enough having dinner in the van and staying in the house when they’re with us.
    Why does one thing always lead to another.......to get the van in the front garden the hedge and wall will need to come out. I’ve been sitting on a stool putting slate chippings from the raised bed into a bucket - we can use them in the back garden. We’ve had a chat with next door about taking the dividing hedge down and putting a fence up plus we will need to take a raised bed out to give a little more room.

    We had that when we swapped cars at our old house. The new car was much wider than my old one so we had to take a section of hedge out and widen the drive 🤣🤣🤣

    Where have you planned your first trip RS. When we pick our up in July they offer 2 nights at a site nearby in case there’s any questions/queries. We can’t decide where to go after that 😲😂

    There is somewhere a half hour up the road we have in mind for our first trip just to check everything is working.

    We need to fit the refillable gas kit the day we pick it up and get our gear onboard but we reckon the day after we can get out and about.

    Luckily I had already booked that week off work 😀

    Will have a night up the road and if all is OK, we know have a few places to go that week.
