Nearly Ready !!






After Carole left yesterday after her one to one class, I set to and gave the new caravan a good spring clean.
Sparky cat decided to jump in and check it out as well--he likes the seats at the back of the van by the dining table best!
He did try out the bed after we had put it down, and started playing with the string to the awning that Bill had started to get sorted!!
We haven't really looked at everything propley since we bought her months ago, so today as the weather was fine, Bill got the awning out and made sure everything was there.
Its massive-doubles the size of the space we have.We will be able to leave the bed down instead of putting it back as seats each morning as we have a lovely dining space with seats at the other end of the van.
We have got everything packed ready to go tomorrow, just got to sort out which paintings we are taking, and load those in the morning.
We have been shopping for a few essentuals that can be left in the van instead of having to remember to pack each time,there is loads of storage space in the bathroom for all the toiletries so they can be left in there.
The shower is quite powerful and the heater works well, so we have all the things we need.
The fridge works on gas as well as electric so we can have some ice in our drinks while we are there too!
We are looking forward to meeting up with some of the people from various forums I belong to-cant wait!
One last thing to do is to get the paintings packed up for the exhibition tomorrow and dropped off before we go.
Its a shame we cant make it to the private viewing on Saturday, but some of my students and friends will be there.
