Lots now
After dropping our current motorhome back to the iveco main dealer to sort out the brake warning they had supposedly fixed, I got a phone call and follow up email from Premium Motorhomes, your new motorhome has been released from the factory and is getting shipped tomorrow.
We are so happy we will get it before Christmas ready for our trip into spain on boxing day.
Just the horrendous job of transferring the funds 🤔😮🤣.

I just hope northern commercials sort out that warning light ready for the handover next week or Premium are not going to be happy.

It went slightly "off topic" Jock, but you know that now as Gareth has explained :giggle:

And it's only too much gravy when you are in polite company and not allowed to lift and slurp the plate then a spoon would have to suffice.

Wow, you're posh. Mopping up with Jaffa cakes was how we were dragged up :unsure: :rolleyes:

Followed the instructions, I was expecting it not to work after the journey down as that's what happened last time travelling from the dealers back to the northwest.
Let's see what happens when we disembark in spain.

I think the restaurant at port solent must have read the jaffa cake and gravy comment as they just served phil a sticky toffee pudding with supposedly custard but somehow we got hollandaise sauce on it 😆😆😆
Lots of apologies from them.

An interesting twist on a classic. Maybe something you'll want to include in your repertoire? 😂

You’re down south now. If you see a magpie just make sure you say Good morning Mr Magpie how are you today, even if it’s the afternoon otherwise the step is doomed.

Surely if you see one magpie (which is unlucky) you have to say ‘Good day to you Mr Magpie, and to your wife and family’.

Now anyone reading this will be unable NOT to say it when espying a lone magpie …. :rofl:

A Lone Magpie won't have a Partner as they mate for Life....Hence the saying 'One for Sorrow Two for Joy'

I have to disagree Geraldine, I say what my Dad told me to say and no doubt my Granny so it must be correct. My Dad grew up in Somerset but my Granny was Dorset born and bred. :giggle:

They were unbelievably superstitious.

Just read the article that Nanniemate posted. Seems we were both right, but if you did the whole of the list you’de never get anything done, and be in danger of being carted off ….

How To Prevent Bad Luck​

To help ward off the bad luck that might come your way from seeing a solitary magpie there are a number of things you can do:

Salute the magpie.

Say ‘Good morning general’ or ‘Good morning captain’.

Say ‘Good morning Mr Magpie, how is your lady wife today?’

Say ‘Good morning, Mr Magpie, how are Mrs Magpie and all the other little magpies?’

Say ‘Hello Jack, how’s your brother?’

Doff your hat.

Spit three times over your shoulder.

Blink rapidly to fool yourself into thinking you’ve seen two magpies.

Flap your arms like wings and caw loudly to mimic the magpie’s missing mate….
———————

What with that lot and checking every Union Flag to see if it’s the right way up or not, my day is just too full! :rofl:
