Well it seems we may never leave on this trip. Peter has still not finished the job he has been trying to complete – looks like it will be finished on Friday, so we are now going to try to make the get-a-way on Monday 29 July (Happy Birthday Matthew – sorry to be leaving on this day!)

No – we are definitely leaving on the 29th July – if Peter is not ready I am simply going without him. Although there is the slight snag of the fact that I can not fit the weight distribution bars on the van – what can I say, not enough weeties for breakfast. I will just have to make sure Peter is ready to leave!

I am feed up with having to retrieve items from the caravan, so the sooner we get under way the better. We have not even left yet and things are not running smoothly.
