Run to the sun….

I suppose had i bought a decent van in the first place we may have taken to it more. We love the traveling bit getting from A2B exploring then moving on. But always issues with the Bailey, everytime without exception.
The Autotrail Imala we had for a year was far better built than that daft Bailey, although it was a bit like the local Lido.
I hope you give it another go. We bought a Carado because Claire liked the layout and that you can sit up in bed with a book or cup of tea. It was much cheaper than the Hymer I wanted to buy, but I have to say in over four years the only problem we have had is needing to replace a tap. It is more basic than the Hymer but very well built.
 
Didn’t go into saville as we had a long lunch so parked up at an aire just outside and will go in tomorrow, I only want to do the Plaza de Espaina bit so won’t be there long…😎

But will get some pictures…☺️
First time we went to that Plaza place we were gobsmacked. Bout 2 years ago there was talk about them charging xx Euros to get into the grounds, don't know if that happened.

My sunlight is still fine after 8 years very well built but no tinsel and bling

Seems to be a few days of mishaps… went shopping in Lidl and forgot trolley so wizzed back out the exit and the pointy plastic barriers closed and I went straight into one….😡🤬🤬 pointy bit went into my chest be the side of my moob and did it make me yelp…🤬 a few choice words to myself were in order and throughly gave myself a rollicking…

We went and had a Chinese wok after shopping and it was great, eaten far too much again but the food was great and plenty of choice, a few pictures of what I remembered…

Three of us last night on the park up behind Carlos Greengrass garry55 and a quick chat and discovered we’re all going to the boat marina aire at Gibraltar and that’s where we all are today.

Also had another funster Mr Dog come and introduce himself with his good wife and their lovely hairy dog so at least 4 funsters here, that’s getting on for a rally isn’t it…🤔😆😂

Weather is lovely and looking good across Spain for the coming week so anyone down here is getting some decent weather for now, I know it’s not been so good lately…
Will walk into GiB tomorrow get a few essentials and no doubt perfume and aftershave will be amongst them…😏

Then will start wondering our way up through Spain to Santander…☀️😎

Got a moroc telecom 7.5gb card and some dirhams around €40 worth if anyone’s going over or for next year if interested…🤔

Sorry to hear the news about your brother. Get home as soon as you can, but take it easy driving.

Also bad luck about the slippery cushion, but could have been worse in a Force 8 trying to get back up.

Sometimes when I hear about mini-meets on parkings I realise how far away we are in Poland, so get to meet few other MHomers. From Fun we have met barryd and Martin and Jen funflair twice, then on MHFacts Jan @Janhank and Ray and Prue raynipper.

There are quite a few others that I would like to meet, including yourself, especially those that wildcamp,

Safe Home.

Warm today in saville but a breeze was welcome, spectacular place this and very busy being a Sunday and wouldn’t like to be here in the silly season… at one point thought I was back in Morocco with all the rubbish around…☀️🍻😎

Only half an hour up the road to have a look at this little town… very quiet think they’re all having a siesta…🍻☀️😎

Wanted to see inside the church as it’s supposed to be beautiful but it was closed, even god needs a siesta….😎

And the suns still shining. 👍

It’s been very warm since we came back over from Morocco, I have definitely noticed how green everything is all the way up and even some ponds in fields and streams flowing, bet the farmers have loved the rain they’ve had, it must have been a lot over a lengthy period to still see water coming out of gully’s on the roadside… haven’t seen a cloud since Morocco…☀️😎
 
I love The Renault Alpines 110's the Red one is nice, but the Yellow one is very special, very rare & expensive. My Swiss mates have them and belong to The Renault Alpine Club, they gave me a go, and they are fantastic on the tight Swiss Alpine Roads.
I wonder who owns the collection, or is the museum just looking after them for the owners?
Lovely cars & Bikes of our youth, lots of memories of the people we knew that had them in their day.
