………..continued from last Wednesday.
In 2004, whereas bridge inspecting in South Suffolk, Colin occurred to go previous a village storage and noticed this small campervan out on the market, we went to take a look and determined to purchase it. It had been partially professionally transformed however then kitted out to make use of by the storage house owners son to take a motorcycle to trials across the nation and was a bit primary. There was a in-built bathroom plus a fridge operating from a separate battery and a LPG hob as you’d discover in most campervans, a mattress that fitted collectively from cushions however no electrical hook up level and no lighting besides what you’d discover in any van however at the least we might keep dry in dangerous climate .
We had some good holidays and that is the van, which Colin named “Selina”, at Dunster seashore in Somerset. (I’ve by no means named a automobile in my life!)
It bought tougher to get away because the smallholding and campsite bought busier and Aunt, Uncle and My Dad (mum died in 1999) bought too previous to remain and the Eldest two kids had been away at Uni. or had moved away. We all the time went out of season and with no heating within the van it was generally freezing!
Round 2007 we needed to go spherical Scotland after our campsite closed in late September and offered this small van to purchase a small correct motor house which had electrical hook up and heating and even a bathe and stored it for just a few years. We had a improbable vacation throughout the Scottish coast however no photographs, I did not have a digital camera for a number of years.
Now comes an odd time between 2007 and 2013 after we used the small motor-home, half exchanged it for a much bigger caravan for a purpose I am unable to bear in mind and hated the scale of it and offered it and all this time I took no photographs in any respect. I do not know the place we went though I do know we had just a few days on the Ashby canal in a small narrowboat. No locks and a there-and-back journey which was not very attention-grabbing .
Then some years when the campsite and smallholding had been simply too busy and we had no holidays in any respect .
I discovered this on the previous weblog

We’ve got simply bought again from a vacation, the primary for almost 3 years. We spent every week in a cottage overlooking the West Somerset Preserved Railway line, the harbour and city of Watchet in Somerset and really good it was too.
After that good vacation we determined to decelerate the smallholding to have extra holidays and we purchased an inexpensive caravan off ebay, touring up by means of the Fens to gather it. I believe we had only one quick break in it earlier than Colin’s blood most cancers issues began.
In July 2016, when his tablets had been working properly we had just a few days at Builth Wells in Wales – not with the caravan – simply in case he grew to become poorly once more so we rented a vacation cottage.
That was our final vacation collectively.
In Could 2019 I went with Son, DiL and youngest granddaughter for just a few days in a city home in Lincoln.
And that was my final vacation anyplace.
Thanks for feedback yesterday – attention-grabbing ideas from everybody.
And on a a lot lighter be aware – did anybody comply with the sequence “Seize” on TV, with the ultimate episode final evening? What a intelligent story.
A very good lesson for everybody……………positively do not imagine all the things you see or learn!
(Though I assure this weblog is not Deep Faked!)
