The Beginning

The big adventure has begun.

We have a tenant in the house that we own and have moved out of the house that we were renting.

V's parents looked after the children whilst we filled the van three times and cleaned the house. I posted the keys through the letting agents door at 20.30. A lot later than I had thought!  Even having moved almost everything into storage there was so much to pack on the last day.  The children had both had a snotty cold and cough for the last week, but I should have been able to do more.

Having said that, I did get Tony to service the van and asked him to do the split charger and put speakers in for the back seats.  I have also made my mind up about the all terain tyres we are having on the van. We definitely will need a small trailer as well. We don't travel light. And why should we? This is supposed to be enjoyable, not a test. I decided that this afternoon!

There is still an awful lot of things to sort out.

Once the tent is up we can start work on getting the layout and the tent kitchen made. It's OK, three weeks is lots of time!!
