We still don't feel able / comfortable going for those really long breaks that you do. Don't know why, we are both retired and the van is there to use.....

Ian, like your cycling you need to build up your time away, try 6 weeks and see how you go on. Moving frequently will give you new sites/sights to see

It's pouring with rain here this morning. We had a wet evening yesterday. Once the rain started it got really busy last night and we didn't finish work until nearly 10.30 p.m. It's amazing how it suddenly gets manic as soon as the weather gets bad. When the sun shines, everyone goes out and no orders. When it rains they stay in and go online to order from us. The other delivery driver was off for the whole weekend so we had to do all the deliveries.

Spent a lovely day with the boys, taken out for Sunday Lunch at our local pub. Happy Heard all their news, really nice to catch up with them both. They were impressed with our new kitchen. Smile


.Glad you had a nice time with the boys today, my turn next week. Is that the kitchen finished now?

We have the cooker extractor hood to connect up, means drilling big hole in the wall, Surprised and some painting then all finished. 

Are you staying at Holly Tree Cottage on your way home Tammygirl?  We are hoping to get back up that way before the end of the year.

Pouring with rain here too. You will always be busier when it rains, people will get their food delivered, that way you get wet rather than them. Laughing

Glorious day here at Bagnols sur Ceze hoping to launch our inflatable canoe on the river later.  

This site is very popular with the Dutch campers, only 3 English outfits. They speak excellent English though so lots to chat too

Write your comments here...you can go online and download the manual it states that before towing a heavy trailer you must do 1000km first

 

Seems to contradict what SELL's just said. Will have to have a look at the manual myself I guess.

Write your comments here...nellie i only checked the towing section of the handbook assumed this would be the place to look for any restrictions, for peace of mind best to ring your dealer they will give you the definate answer.

Write your comments here...I asked my dealer and he said you can tow straight away but when I downloaded the manual it states you must do 1000 km first, it's  on page 302 or 303  depending on which one you download

I'm sure you are right Natasha.

Our garden is quite 'high maintenance' and will be like a jungle after three weeks. I think we need to move somewhere with lower maintenance required.

Write your comments here...Just checked again on page 303 and you are correct when i looked in the table of contents for towing it send me to page 310 so missed this, apoligies nellie if i mislead you.

Swept the chimney with some new brushes we bought, as sweeps are getting so difficult to locate. Did a fairly decent job, at least plenty came down, and not a lot of mess as we managed to contain everything quite well. Now started to VAX the carpets. These have to be done in stages, as we find the furniture is too heavy to move out of the room these days. Just done the caravan ones and they have come up a treat.
