Boiler problems at home have delayed our first overnighters with Frank, although consideration was given to pressing him into service to provide a hot shower!!
Our first big trip will be to France on 23 May for a week - trying the Newhaven to Dieppe ferry overnight. This arrives in Dieppe at 0400hrs but we know from last summer when we hired a van, that there are two good Aires right by the ferry terminal, so the plan is to bed down for a couple of hours when we get off the ferry, breakfast in Dieppe, and then hit the road.
Oh, and I forgot to mention, we twisted Amelia's arm, and she is coming with us!!!
Already booked our main summer trip, DFDS Ferries again, but this time Dover to Calais on 7th July. The plan for this trip is to spend a week or so travelling south, a week in Provence at Le Lac De Sainte Croix near Aups and then another week wending our way back to Calais.
And this weekend we are going to have a 'try everything to see that it works' stop at a site in the Forest of Dean.
Can't wait !
