Definitely agree with winter get aways less people about and the weather isn’t always bad and I always think if it’s cold you can wrap up it’s going to be cold at home so you may as well be cold with nice views we once went to the lakes beginning of March we had beautiful bright days a lovely change of scenery nice walks met some lovely people the day after we came home they where cut off there was so much snow you have got to make the most of it

Definitely sounds like it’s worth the money would cost a fortune in hotels going away as often as you do. I’m the opposite lol sort of dreading my weekend away in York don’t really want to leave home ha.

We don't really go to many hotels. We much prefer having our own accomodation and facilities with us.

Just had my invite for my second vaccination. So that is booked in for Saturday morning. They have gotten around to the second vaccines in our area really quickly. It will only be six weeks between jabs for both of us.

It is.

Helps with the dog as well that he is in familiar surroundings when we are away. He loves exploring new places but he likes to know where he is sleeping and eating

Happy Friday your evening sounds a lot less frantic than the past few unless you’ve got everything packed in the van ready to go. 

H/m chicken Kiev wow that takes me back my dad used to do those, they were absolutely delicious but remember going to another kids house for dinner one day and they had some shop bought ones - they were genuine disgusting lol.

We are not away in the van this weekend. We have friends coming over to stay on Saturday night. 

We wouldn't be away this weekend anyway I don't think. We need to get the van ready for our first proper holiday starting the next weekend. Think tomorrows job is getting it out onto the road and giving the exterior a good scrub. Then Sunday will be spent giving the interior a good clean and fettle. Can then spend next week bitting and batting at loading it up ready to set off next Saturday morning.

It's handy having it at home so we can get it cleaned and loaded up ready to go away. Don't know how people do it when they have them in storage. Must be a nightmare!!
