Well at least Blu wont be too hungry as he has probably worked his way round all 4 corners of the table by now.
Perhaps when you sit him down for that final bollocking, you should show him some of these pictured options, lets us know which one he selects with his Paw, we could have a whip round.:giggle:

Hi Tam. Like many really enjoyed travelling vicariously with you again. Thank you.

Really impressed with your estimated expenses though. Does that cover everything can I ask? Dogs, vets, repairs, et al ?
Amazing.

My Vodafone contract is just about to expire & I was offered this deal which is pretty good. However the lack of any inclusive roaming has forced me to move to the Lebara 35gb deal which gives me have 30gb roaming on the Vodafone network. Only problem with paying for roaming sims is a lot of my Apps including banking and credit card are linked to my UK number.

I was replying to Tam. :giggle: I know what you mean about roaming though and your sim number as I have the same issue as both my sim numbers are linked to banks etc (dual sim phone), so I have a second phone which I put a Lebara sim into and tether to that to do my banking etc on my main phone. If you have a dual sim phone though you could just put it in alongside your main sim.

Good thing too as you'll get to hear it starting from cold which as you'll know can tell you a lot about its engine condition, more than any service history etc

Yes my number is also linked to all my banks etc and its too much hassle to change it all . I'll use the lebara sim in my second phone and can tether to it if required. I'll probably get an id or iq sim for my main phone and swap my number . They limit to 30gb abroad but I think it's 100gb in UK for a tenner or something

Won't have to worry in the new MH (assuming you get it!) as she'd have to have a hell of a reach to nibble at the table from the sofa! Just make sure she can't get onto the chair.

The van isn't here it's on a private storage yard so I'll probably have to follow him up there in the morning once mackeellan gets here

I'm going to buy her a bed that will go under the table and she can stay on the floor. Harnessed if need be as otherwise she'll be trying to climb on everything all the tome.

There's not a square inch of space in this yard lol. He has about 40/50 of those nissan elgrands aswell as loads of caravans and a few motorhomes

That was a loooong drive here . From where I collected the scooter satnav originally said 3 hours 26 minutes and 198 miles .. but it took me a mad route from there to the m25 and that was the usual carpark and corrugated hell . Then m3 for a bit , some a road then m4 all the way to Cardiff...First time I've been over that bridge . All roadworks though and lots of them on every motorway I was on so the usual signs saying 50mph but lucky if you could do 20 . In the end after leaving scooter at 11.20 , stopped for 35 minutes for lunch and got to his yard around 6pm .. then went In search of a takeaway . I'm knackered so it will probably be a shower and an earlyish night.

Scooter on the rack

As you can see the seat bar isn't along the seat far enough. But I'm going to try dropping the mounting to below seat height to see if it works better meantime .

The M25 is why I cross from Portsmouth, or Harwich, even gave up Newhaven and only use the tunnel if carrying my sons dog.......the traffic, road works, concrete surface - major PIA !

Is mackeellan going with you to look at it..? That’ll be good, four eyes better than two..👍🏼

Yes that's the plan Gary he's going to arrive here tomorrow morning and have a look at the big van with me. And then he'll also get a chance to have a look at the jobs we need to do on this van so I can pick up whatever materials I need etc before getting to yours. My biggest problem with this one at the minute is it's mot as the garage uncle Lenny HB had suggested seems to have closed down. Its not due till 21st but I'd have liked to have got it done before I headed down your way and always better if it's a garage someone knows

I have my garage that I use but he is a good honest mot inspector.. but I suppose if anything does need doing it should be easy enough to sort it on my drive ..

Just to remind you I’m not home until 7/8 August..

Might be an option if I can't find one near uncle lenny . Going to sort all my brakes etc at his before heading down to yours. I'd originally planned to do my mot on the 5th and head down to yours around the 7th . Chris has family commitments from the 19th so I think he's coming down around the 9th or something. But will find out tomorrow. I've new interior lights etc to fit at uncle lennys and there's a couple of wee electrical things he's gonna fix for me but nowt major.

Just Googled Derbyshire there, looks lovely lots of hills and nice countryside, I always google places people are from when they say it on here, I like to see different parts of the UK we've stayed in some lovely places on our way through, so many nice places over there 🙂

I know every body hates that M25 but I actually quite like it lol probably because I find it nice and slow compared to the whacky races on the M1 or M6 coming down, everyone seems to be in a mad hurry everywhere! Lol maybe it's because we come over from Ireland where our pace of life is so much slower so when we get to the M25 it's almost like a relief, Rosie makes us a wee cuppa and a biscuit and we watch all the cars and people going by you see some nice cars on that road (we saw Hank Marvin last time in a lovely Bentley suv) and before you know it we're heading over the big bridge and into Kent and nearly the tunnel 🙂
