    It turned out to be a quieter evening last night. The pub shut early as it was a bit quiet so we headed back to the van for a few beers and dinner and had an early night ourselves. We were in bed for 9.30pm. Think we all needed it though. Other half and the dog are still fast asleep. 

    It should be a no spends day today. We are having breakfast on the van this morning. Full English and later on we have roast chicken and all the trimmings at home.

    When we peel ourselves out of bed we will have a quiet morning pottering around here, taking the dog for a good walk before heading home at lunchtime. We have no rush today and we are only an hour from home.

    We are home now after a great weekend out. The dog is shattered and has gone straight to bed. 

    We decided to refuel the van so that it is full for when we set off to the Lakes in a couple of weeks so not a no spends day after all.

    Dinner is prepared for later, load of washing in the machine, dog walked, so now time to chill out with a few beers. 

    It's been a great weekend and we have met some lovely people who I'm sure we will bump into again on our travels.

    It is so quiet especially at night. You can hear nothing.

    It is such a lovely little village and all of the locals are so friendly. They all make us so welcome. 

    We will be back before much longer. It is a nice local run for us at about an hour each way.

    Yes, we are looking forward too a proper trip away in the van now.

    We are at home next weekend so will spend Sunday cleaning the van ready for going away the weekend after. It is getting ready for a good scrub externally.
