the chesterfield eye
Loved it just wished I hadn't had to go on my own. But then if I had waited for Glenn I would never have tried it. Heating OK something we must have done wrong in Gabby or just a quirky thing that sorted itself out. She is having her TV wired up next week . Hope you are OK

Interesting grave
That was a very interesting grave. I like visiting graveyards. I think it is interesting to see how they in various parts of the world treat their loved ones after they have passed away. /Ake

graves
It's known as a table grave in Britain. They were quite prominent around the 18th century but not many remain in graveyards now. I too love graveyards particularly French and Italian ones. Spend ages reading the inscriptions on them. Fascinating places . Where are you off to next ?

Thankyou Dave - just a random old shot from a phone camera. Pure luck - but it was rather lovely in the snow

Rain!
Reminds me of why we try to spend winters out of the UK! I hate the rain and cold although its chilly in Tenerife at the moment!

Hi there in chilly Tenerife , it even started to snow a little this morning. We have to take Gabby to Newark tomorrow to get the lighting and heating sorted . Envy you so much . I have a stinking cold which started yesterday and how I wish I was in the sun. We have plans to get away in the winter - getting too old for this weather but sadly at the moment we have family problems that keep us home. Still things will change I have no doubt about that and to be fair it is only 67 days to go until we get off for a month in France.

Welcome, Gabby...
so how did you pick that name?

how did we pick the name
Well - we thought long and hard Bob - Suzy was Suzy Sundance so she had to be something starting with a G. We started with Globestar and thought that she is on a Fiat base engine so something Italian - hence Gabriella - shortened to Gabby as she is also German built and it seemed to fit . We just love Gabby and cant wait to get away again . Hope you all have a wonderful Christmas

Named after Jezzer from Top Gear ? Are you writing Blogs anywhere ? Love reading them from other people and seeing where they take their vans.

It is rather odd going from a motorhome to a panel van. I still am not sure how we ended up there. Lets just say a puncture in Italy, being in the right place at the right time and seeing one in Bologna . Wish we were in France now - Christmas is definitely going to be in the UK sadly but counting down to April already and France. Have a lovely Christmas - x

A 70 something who feels that the world is her lobster, that life is worth living and that you only get one shot at it . A whole new world opened up since we bought Suzy. A different view out of the window every day and the chance to see life in all its glory. And then there is Sion our travelling companion. A knowledgeable sheep who with his Sheep Book of Facts keeps us on our toes. He and his bestest, bestest friend Woolly Mammoth search the world for latrines, roofs and manhole covers. What more could you want out of life? ... full info
