Time to Face The Music

Can't believe how quickly the motorhome loan seems to be coming down.  Doesn't seem that long ago that you bought it and you have certainly got a lot of use from it.  When's your next trip?  Easter?

I know we have said the same. Can't believe it is almost two years already. Time is flying by.

Easter is the next trip. We are heading down to Tewksbury for a few days. If it isn't flooded by then!!

That CC7 will soon be under £10k

Those payments are coming down and you’re still enjoying life. You’ve got the right balance 👍

I can’t believe you’ve had the van that long 😱 I thought it might be just over a year. I love how you enjoy life while still paying off debt. As milann says - the right balance.

Thanks all. 😊

Definitely not a no spends day today. 

We need to pop into time and go to the bank to sort the other half's bank card out, which developed an error last week.

We also need to go to the farm shop. Won't get chance next weekend so we need to make sure we have what we need for going away. Need a chicken for tomorrow as well.

I need to wash the van bedding today. Think that will be dried in the spare bathroom. Don't think it will be dry enough to hang it out today.

I'm doing a full English for breakfast and dinner tonight is slow cooked ox tail in black bean sauce with rice and spring rolls. 

No other plans for the day really.

It's been a busy day today. We completely forgot the other half's sister was coming round to pick up the old patio furniture. They have been here all afternoon. Been nice to see them though.

We have both sorted out our wardrobes and pants and sock drawers before they turned up. A job that really needed doing. A trip to the tip tomorrow is in order.

We swapped ideas for dinner tonight and it's an Indian curry instead.

Enjoy the curry 👍

It might be a no spends day today. I'm not calling it yet though.

Breakfast and dinner will be from stores. Full English for breakfast and roast chicken and all the trimmings later on for dinner. 

Today we need to wash the van ready for next weekends trip to Tewkesbury. Well, we hope to Tewkesbury. We saw some pictures of the campsite yesterday and it was a bit flooded!

Might need to have a Plan B ready. Will have a look into that later today.

Other than walking the dog and doing a load of washing we don't have much else planned. The garden is too wet to do anything to tidy it up yet.

Have to admit that at this time of year we tend to look for places with hard standing rather than just grass.  It just makes sense for us with a 4.5 tonne vehicle and twin rear wheels!  Not easy to be towed off anywhere!
