Today we D-day for the camper.
It went in to get repaired, so we hired a car for the day and took ourselves off siteseeing.
The mechanic reakoned it was either something simple and relativly cheap or something major and not very cheap. He was going to replace the simple thing first and take it from there. .... well, my money dance and crossed fingers worked!!! The first option did the trick!
We went to St Albans, where my mother is from. Had a wander round the town and went to see her old house, which is now being demolished and developed. (picts. for my mother, the side one is from where the garage went out onto little acre, looking back to the dell and the t.court.)
After aimlessly trying to find our way back we past the place my granddad is burried so I went in to say hello and tell him all about his new great grand daughter. The Scottish accent used to stumble him, but at least he knew who it was!! ;-)
Apart from that we were just excited to get the van back this afternoon in full working order. Even I wouldn't have driven it any further, so you can imagine how bad it was!!
