    We missed the best of last night's sunset over the Solent.



    It has been a very quiet night here. 

    We are going to explore the country park here this morning before breakfast. 

    Full English when we get back I think. We have no need to rush off. 

    We are back across the island to Bembridge today and back on track to where we should be. We are having a Chinese takeaway for dinner later. 

    Tonight's stopover looks like it has the potential to be very special. 
  • Fab pics!! It looks so pretty

    We unfortunately have to move on today. We are heading a little further along the coast for a few hours before heading inland to the campsite we have booked.

    We are going to have a good walk onthe beach first though before breakfast and will have breakfast here to enjoy this view for as long as possible.

    Bacon sandwich for breakfast this morning and we are having a bbq later while we are on a site.

    Aiming for a less spendy day today.

    MSE job done for today. 

    I have renewed my phone contract to a sim only deal which will now be £12 per month rather than the ridiculous £67 a month I had been paying for this phone 😲

    No new phone this time though. But this phone is absolutely fine.
