Saturday, November 1

Campervan day! We ghad figured out exactly what bus/trains we needed to catch to get to the station that the campervan people were picking us up from - we thought it was going to be horrible with all our bags etc but we got through it pretty painlessly - yay!

We were given a tour of our campervan and unpacked all out gear, then we were ready to roll!! We hadn't had lunch (it was abuot 2:30 I guess) and cam was telling us he was hungry (not surprisingly) so our plan was to stop at the first food place we came across...unfortunitely our GPS had different ideas and took us straight to the motorway...no food places in sight... Because ti was so fast and scarey we didn't veer off track...and so we win the prize for the worlds worst parents today as dfidn't have lunch at all!!

It got dark very early (about 4:30) and was pouring with rain - we approached our destinitaion, very aware that we still had no food, and didn't know where to find any!! We found our camping ground which was a good start (by now cam had fallen asleep) and got all set up. We were cold, hungry and foodles lol. Col went for a look around and came back to report there was a dairy across the road - we could have jumped for joy hehe. So I went over with the £15 cash we had and brought a few essentials - stuff for dinner, breakfast, tea, sugar and milk. Oh and some biscuits ad chips! Cam woke up and was very pleaed to see our haul and ate loads of junk food (yep, right b4 dinner!)

We all crashed out pretty much straight away after that - it was a long day with one thing or another and we were ready for a goods night sleep!
