GOODBYE THAILAND HELLO BRIGHTON
Ok I admit it I miss writing the blog - we have been home just over three weeks and I still have my walk albeit along westcliff beach and the weather has been ok but it has seemed weird just coming back and returning to everyday life. Four months is a long time but we loved every minute and feel blessed that we had such an amazing trip. However as I mentioned earlier I miss the blog so every now and then I shall bore you with my life and travels in Monte our camper van - named today as it is written on his side, well it actually says Monte Carlo but that seemed a bit over the top. Obviously I would rather have had a Lola like our friends but I know in my heart that Monte is a boy - I could cover him in flower decals if Jim would allow it but he would still look like a male and he does a good job, he is comfy he drives like a top car and he rarely causes trouble.
Today is Montes first day out after the winter and all has gone very welll, we had a good journey to Brighton and the weather has been beautiful, a lazy afternoon in the sunshine pre dinner G&T's and a delicious bar-b-que.
Slept for a wonderful 10 hours and woke up to glorious sunshine, breakfast outside and then caught the bus into Brighton and spent the afternoon on the beach. Jim had a swim but somebody has to look after the bags so of course I volunteered - it actually wasn't as cold as he thought it would be, but nether the less I gave it a miss.
It's 6o'clock and the sun is still shining looking forward to spaghetti bologneise and a bottle of red.
