    How does the van do at keeping cool inside?

    It's not too bad with all of the roof hatches open.

    We have had an amazing day here. Absolutely love this place. It has been a Hive of activity with families using the beach, dog walkers, fishermen, pleasure boats, fishing boats, quad bikes and off road vehicles. It has a real old school village feel too it.

    Everyone is so friendly. Will most certainly come back here again.

    Time to head home today unfortunately. It will be a no spends day.

    Breakfast is a bacon and egg sandwich and dinner tonight is roast pork and all the trimmings. 

    We will let the dog have a run on the beach this morning before we head home.

    We have spent the grand total of £10 this weekend and a bit of diesel and have had a fantastic weekend away. We will certainly be back here again.

    Looks an amazing weekend away and weather on your side too. Was the £10 spent including parking the van up? I suppose you have to buy food whether in the van or at home so that’s no different. 

    I know I’ve laughed about it but tbh the van looks great fun when you’re visiting all kinds of places making the most of the weekend.

    It's free to park the van here. All the food and drink was what we already had at home.

    The £10 was spent on a couple of drinks each in the pub yesterday afternoon.

    The van sounds a really good fit for you. I can see why you didn't want to wait until the debt was closer to gone. Its almost a spending deterrent in a funny kind of way. 
    The dog must be in doggy heaven, all these new places mum and dad keep finding for him.
