Should have gone today but  Arthur Ritis wouldn't let me so resting joints today for Sunday

Well thats 3rd of five courses finished, never done anything so boring in all my life, got to go through all that junk to keep an LGV licence  

Well a week into the German trip and the weather has been very very hot, today the 1st below high 30s and a welcome rain shower.
Stayed at Gravelines 1 night then 2 days at Ruthen marina, made the mistake of going into Duisburg without a Umwelt Plakette so high tailed it out pronto, just hope I don't get a €40 fine.
At Lemgo now and still no wifi, it's not working, so using the phone.
Off too Potsdam and then Berlin on Monday, not heard a word yet on the Dusseldorf 4, very strange.

Barb n Herr Bob

We're at Mailleraye sur Seine, and met up with Linda & Alan (laneside).

We've just beaten them at boules, so now claim to be the reigning world motorhomers all french challenge cup holders!!!
And we've only just opened the red!

Allen & Eileen

Well we have just spent the last 8hrs looking around Berlin and apart from them rebuilding most of it we had a great time. Dodged the rain and saw lots of places but wow it's a busy city and the biggest train station we have ever been in, navigating around was a challenge but we never got lost once. Will post the pics when we get some decent wifi, had a big row on here about them charging for it and its crap.
Tour of Potsdam tomorrow then decide if we will go further North n East or head down into Western Germany.

Where do you stay on the caravan club site?

Hia

How's your new van settled in now

Yes....Thurstaton CC.  Only went there for the first time last month as can never normally get on there. Its always chocca.  Anyway, got home on the Sunday to an invitation to a 'family do' just down the road so tried to book it on line and it was full so rang up and the lady and explained we had just been there that weekend etc and she was lovely (unusual for CC...  we always think they are retired Dr's receptionists normally!!) and told me she would look after me.  She must have known I was a good sort!!

With the weather looking good we've decided to stay on a campsite in Ville de la  Fleche...

At Lincoln show...just been treated to a fab low level practice display by the Red Arrows...awesome !

We're on the aire at Alba la Romaine, nr Montelimar.
Bit breezy, but sunshine and 22 deg on the dark side of the van, and at 10 am.
Staying here till early next week, we'll have supped all the wine by then!!

And we thought you'd done a runner to avoid treating us to a bottle of red on your birthday, or maybe to avoid another massive defeat on the boules pitch!!

Allen & Eileen

ps what was the engine problem, and did you get it fixed ?

We are at sandwich fishing lakes in Kent. Kevin has just taken me on a 20 mile cycle. Went to Deal for fiish and chips back to Sandwich and then got lost and detoured for another 3 miles until we got back here. To say I'm nackered is an understatement.

Well my stroll was a 2 hour mud walk

But the walk was ok 

Izzy had her shower when we got home and later actually stood there while I dried some of her with the hair dryer
On a low setting before you get the RSPCA onto me

And she stood there and let me dry her the best I could.
She must have been cold
