We're on the road again. This time in 'Wee Margie', our old and a little unreliable Citroen Berlingo. She's not a Volkswagen, or a campervan, but she has all the attitude of 'Large Marge'.
Today we decided to travel a few miles from home to Langton Matravers,
near Swanage to Tom's Field Campsite. Inside Wee Margie is a boot jump. A box
that transforms her into a small campervan. Sounds simple, doesn't it? What
could possibly go wrong. Once we'd sourced a pitch suitably level for the car,
we set about erecting the awning. The wind was a little blustery making this
exercise a little challenging. The boot jump set up was starting to lose its
appeal. Eventually, something that resembled a shed stood behind the car.
What's that a Portaloo? . Here we go again. Wee Margie sounded just like Marge!
We personally likened it to a box, and quipped, 'two go camping in a
shed'.
Keen to stretch our legs we walked across the fields to Dancing Ledge aware that the downhill walk would result in a challenging uphill climb. But we didn't mind, it was well worth it.
And as an added bonus John stumbled
across some field mushrooms to cook with his burgers.
Not only that, but a ring of Saint Georges mushrooms for breakfast!
Tonight will be a challenge. We've become used to the comforts of
Marge. Would we survive the night?
