The story so far...

It’s been an eventful last few weeks... more details to follow but in brief:

We put the finishing touches to our new home, we sold our other car for a good price... for the buyer... we ticked off at least 50 of the 200 or so items on our To Do list, and most importantly; we found someone to rent our house whilst we are away. Great news, but as the new tenants needed to move in eight days before we were able to head up the coast, after a frantic week of moving all our worldly possessions into a double garage, we are now installed in Sydney Lakeside Holiday Park in Narrabeen looking forward to next Monday and warmer climes.

We woke up to a cold and grey sky on our first morning in Narrabeen after a night cold enough to send us stealthily back to our house to pick up a 1000W heater. That said, and without wanting to obsess about the weather, last night, our second night under canvas, was more eventful still as much of it was spent battling 100km per hour gale force winds and rain which threatened to do some real damage to the trailer and our trip plans. In the end we got away with a few bent poles, a small rip to the awning canvas, and a temporary dent in our enthusiasm for this camping lark at around 3.30am!
