Aaaaargh! I think we're going to need a bigger Van!


20th October 2012

Ping has tesselated till she is blue in the face and it is looking like we may have so much essential equipment that we have to leave some things behind . Oh! wait a minute she has just got it all in.
Well now here we are just one day to go. closing down our home of 26 years , movin out and packing the van ready for the opportunity of a lifetime which will probably result in us gettin eaten by Lions and Tigers!

As you may imagine its bit touchy , tempers most definately getting frayed.  Oh did I forget to mention we have a big party to organise for tonight.


I have a feeling it was my idea to leave the next day as a kind of dramatic gesture. I am not so sure now it was such a good idea .
Well we leave tomorrow (sun) at midday.

We both know how lucky we are and our profound thanks go to all our friends every one has supported us in some way, you may may not even know it your self.

So there we are leave at midday  next stop Frinton on Sea then on to Harwich take the night boat to Holland to meet our Dutch Friends who we have known since the last overland trip in Asia some 30 years ago.

Thanks everyone!
