So what news! have we left the country or not? the answer is no van took longer and cost more than expected. We took it on a run last week end and the front brakes disintergrated so we are now in Wiltshire at my mums awaiting spares, so frustrating! Should be gone by tomorrow to Suffolk to say goodbye to Jo's mum then hopefully the ferry to France!

  2. Unlucky brakeage (geddit). I'm vicariously excited ( which is about as excited as I get). Still, with your DIY travel there's bound to be hiccups, but there's no rush eh, and it's more satisfying your way. Good luck, can't wait for the travelogue and pics! Love from us, James and jen x
