Favourite Photos - part one

Alone on Donna
Aaaah the joys of motorhoming. We love finding out of the way places, often with thanks to the wildcamping website and All the Aires book which we have found invaluable on our trip around Europe. We've also used the German Bord Atlas and Nordic Camper for our Scandinavian hop. There are some very handy translation apps on the iPad to help make sense of these books if you don't happen to speak Norwegian. Mine's a little rusty to say the least.

Yesterday, I was going through my photos with a couple of friends who are about to head off on their own adventure in their new(ish) Hymer 680. There were a few lovely ones there so I decided to do a compilation of my favourite ones. Don't worry I'm not going to put the total 1000 or so on my phone on this blog. I have a few favourites that I thought some of you might like to check out.

Back and Busy

We've been back a week now and have been busy decorating my cottage so it looks fresh and bright for whoever buys it. This blog has been neglected due to the fact we get in after a day's painting and all we want to do is plonk on the sofa and vegetate. There are a couple of videos of the Ath giants that need to be added to the blog but it's quiz night at the Welly tonight so that may have to wait till tomorrow.
can I go now?
Mr Fluffy has been working hard but managed to get a few hours off to go kayaking. Unfortunately he got seasick and was wiped out for the rest of the day. I have now employed the services of a local handy man to help finish off the painting as we feel it is a bit too much for our old bones. The cottage is looking rather gorge though so hopefully it will sell soon.
Will take some pics today and pop them on.

A Soggy Return

It wasn’t the welcome home we expected - torrential rain, flooding, and giant potholes in pretty much every road we drove on today. Ugh! The...
