If everything goes according to plan I have booked Friday off work to go and collect the demountable.

The plan is to get it home put all the gear in and go off to Scarborough for the weekend when the boys finish school :D

Can't wait to get it now and try it out.

So what's this upholstery you've chosen, must be something exotic they had to send out for and hold up the handover :o

We went and picked it last weekend the fabric came in from the supplier on Wednesday which left them short of time to complete it.

It has actually worked out better as we have been a bit busy this weekend.

good luck with it - watch for low trees that jump out (read older pots for our little 1st day disaster)

We should be loading next weekend ready for easter in the cotswolds (avoiding of course chipping norton and the press pack)

We have got to Scarborough without incident and have demounted the camper.

Everything works so we are happy.

Just off now for some fish and chips :D

No but it's a good job as I had to put it back on the truck as I got the legs the wrong way round and couldn't open the gas locker :lol:

Never mind all good practice
