So after a long 10 months the day was finally here to collect our brand new Royal Flair Promenade 21 foot with ensuite, reclining chairs and all the other extras i think i am going to need and a few extras  just cos i can biggrin

 

So of to Ian Grants Caravans we went and meet with Minnie to give her a big cheque and sign some paper work, after going over everything we will need to know (im sure i have already forgotten some of itno) it was two hours latter and i was sitting in my work car watching Pete drive away in the new car towing our new home.....for some reason i was nervous of his driving for the first time ever.......

 

Next part is to pack the van, pack up the house - store what few things we are going to keep and finish the last 5 weeks of work   july 3rd seems like it will take forever to get here but im sure that the time will go quick with so much to do

 

i am more excited than a three year old blowing out the candles on their birthday cake wink

I never used to like dark colours in a van. Just changed my mind. Very very nice. Hope you have many years of happy travels.

Just heard from the caravan people.
They have given you the wrong van.
That one is mine
