Most of the time we've been away we know the weather at home has been good. Now back in the midlands, it did not disappoint. Despite a little rain through the night, this morning the sun was up, the sky blue, and the mercury rising.
Bliss. Sadly though today would be our last day away.
But first before heading home there was a campervan to view again, after which a discussion about Marge's future, which she must have heard, because just as we joined the M4O at Warwick her wing mirror on the driver's side became loose and almost dropped off. So a swift stop on the hard shoulder before we carried on pulling off at the next junction, stopping at a Coop for repairs.
Marge obviously wasn't happy at hearing her days might be numbered. Calm down Marge, no decision has been made yet. Despite some problems last year with her, she's served us well carrying us all the way to the south of Morocco and back, a journey of over five thousand miles without missing a beat, and again on our Scotland adventure, clocking 2467 miles, once again without a blip, except for the wing mirror incident. Now safely home, tonight we thank Marge for her reliability and the memories she's helped to create with us this year. For anyone who's interested we have been away for thirty eight nights. Spent a total of £237.00 on overnight stops, and £38.0O on showers which equates to just over £7.23 per night. Marge's fuel cost, well we didn't bother to document this figure, with the current price of fuel it was mega bucks, but that's o.k. with our overnight costs so low we could afford to splash out on keeping Marge moving. Back home now we've much to do, and think about. With, good weather forecast for the next week, we might just fit in a couple of nights away in Sussex. Don't tell Marge, there's another van we need to look at. It will need to be exceptional if it's going to replace Marge.
