    Your day sounds busier than being at work ha. 

    Have a brilliant time! It’s a beautiful part of the world.

    A quieter day today. I don't need the car so the other half has taken himself off to work.

    My jobs for today are cleaning the van inside and out, filling it with water, loading up the food and getting it out of the drive without hitting anything!

    I'm cooking a Shepherds pie for tonight's dinner. We can just warm that through tonight when we get to our stopover.

    The dog is grumpy because his dad has left him. Sure he will snap out of it later.

    It's a bit early for being out on the drive making noise just yet so I will get a couple of bits done for our France trip. Need to order our crit aire sticker and the camping cars aire card. Should keep me busy for an hour.

    Glad I checked the weather forecast for next week before packing. Plenty of hoodies packed!

    Beer is packed and the fridge is on so we have some cold ones tonight 🤣🤣🤣

    I was hoping to line dry the van bedding today but it keeps spitting with rain so I have stuck it in the dryer. 

    The van is now clean inside and out. It's a good job we have understanding neighbours. We have had to pull it across from the wall so I could fill it up and wash it and it looks like we have just abandoned it halfway onto their drive 🤣🤣🤣

    I will shift it onto the road this afternoon out of the way.

    Almost forgot amongst the getting ready but it's pay day 😀

    That's means £200 has been sent to the savings account and £100 to the premium bonds account. 

    Me and the dog are going to have a couple of hours chilling in front of the TV now. Everything else is done and the van is safely parked on the road. 



    Will walk the dog before the other half gets home then we are ready to hit the road.

    The dog seems to be having a lazy day today. He has been on our bed for most of it. Had to drag him out for a walk at dinnertime 🙄

    Thanks all. We had a lovely quiet night last night at a nice spot we found.



    After breakfast we drove into Norfolk and had a catch up with an old friend. 


    We have just arrived at tonight's stop over although we are a tad early. It isn't open yet 🤣🤣🤣
