Not such a quick getaway then, unless of course you leave the levelers behind in your haste. ;)

I don't even possess a set of levellers these days , I left them in the hymer when I sold it and these days if I really need it that level I just use stones etc that's lying around.

I have a Bolton Bread stick - ladies rounders bat. Think I might take the head of one of the dogs trying to swing a baseball bat in a motorhome lol. Make sure you carry a ball so you can ask plod for a game!!

And we are now just over the border in to Italy at claviere a wee ski town. I stopped here for lunch once

Parked up here overnight.

There's traces of snow around so they have had it but its clear thankfully at the minute. Will probably go to susa tomorrow.

Moby did OK on the hills , still up and down the gearbox like crazy but he plods on up , this engine runs pretty cold most of the time but it did get a bit warm at one point and the garage obviously never tightened the lid on my expansion tank properly as I lost a little water from that. But once topped up and tightened properly it was all good. 20231120_161146_copy_1612x1025.jpg

Funny… I was going to ask how the van was going, bet you love the cruise… how’s it on mpg…?
Click to expand...
It's going fine , just plods along . Cruise control is great on the motorways. Think I'm getting somewhere between 20 and 25mpg .
 
Hi Tam, glad it’s going well after hiccups at the start. How are you feeling now, is the journey helping you To put stuff in perspective?

Love the photos, keep taking them, but that snow makes me feel cold, hope your warm enough tonight and get away tomorrow ok.
💕

I’m in India now and I have never seen such traffic or driving behaviour . I thought it was bad in Northern Cyprus . 4 up on little scooters !

A while ago JockandRita had downloaded the latest europe maps etc for me and put them on an sd card. I just couldn’t get them to work but after failing to update the maps built in to the satnav at uncle lennys we just deleted the original maps and now for some reason the sd card works so all good for now. Its worked great since leaving uncle lennys .
 
Some lovely scenery Tam, need to het my hypnotherapy sorted so I can do those twisty roads with drops on the side 😉
Glad to hear that Mobi is doing ok hope you are keeping warm too. Smiling at the advice to cover part of the radiator, remember dad doing that with the lorries in the winter.
