Bahamas Hotel Torquay

i was at my bowling ally with my family and this really hot walked past <br>he goes to my bowling club and i am always flirtting with him and we <br>always have a laugh. but i dont know how to tell him i like him and i dont <br>know how he will react. but i am not bothered that much even though i<br>am like in love with him. oh well <br>

... fill the water tank up. Which we duely did and fired up the boiler for our first hot shower in the van. Apart from being a little cosy in there it worked like a dream. Being the only van in the padock had it's advantages... we could pick the best (flatest) spot and enjoy the peace and quite and a beautiful sunset as well as the light show which is the country night sky.<br>

OMG only 3 more days to go before we are off wheely bagging ( Geriatric backpacking)<br><br>we have now just about settled in the new house and are now off again.<br><br>Looking forward to travelling and hoping that you all will follow us and keep in touch...those of you who have been to the same locations feel free to tell us some good places to go !<br><br>write again when we have gone somewhere

Well here we are at a very nice site, all singing and dancing. Our own water and waste and TV point.<br><br>The showers and toilets all immaculate and piped music!!!<br><br>We have the trailer now thank goodness.<br>More later<br><br>MONDAY 21ST SEPTEMBER 2009<br><br>Well not a lot yet to report on Newton Abbot we are just chilling out a bit.<br><br>Cycled into Newton Abbot today to have a look in the shops, same shops ...

Well a bit behind with the blog due to no connection so here is a quick update.<br>We booked into Middlewick farm for a few days before going to Dad's and Mo's for a few days whilst "No Fixed Abode" was away being fitted with a tow bar.<br>The farm site was very quiet and relaxing, full of sweet smells of dung and pig poop!!!!<br>Truck dog Poppy thought it was great fun chasing the chickens!!<br>Hope you like the vid and pics.<br>

... out to Country Cousins Carvery restaurant at Westward Ho for a traditional Sunday lunch today. <br>There was a mile of people on the pebble bank enjoying the sunshine, it can't last!!<br>Took them home and then have come over to Sharen &amp; Steve Mays at Northam to use their computer. Apart from this travel blog I checked the A League and not happy with the Jets effort against Brisbane!!<br><br><br>

... the ocean for dinner.<br>It was an easy choice considering our location, fish &amp; chips!!<br><br>Today Friday has dawned another beautiful day for our drive across Dartmoor to Bideford where Lona grew up to catch up with her brother and numerous cousins etc. We are told it is Regatta Weekend so the joint should be jumping.

... there is know way of identifying the others. <br>There was no street lights outside our caravan or to the lane that run along side it, so all i saw was 2 fights going on outside my van and heard a lot of screaming, until i realised it was my children being beaten up. My eldest had 4 lads on top of him!!!!<br><br>The caravan we were staying in was discusting. The small rooms were mouldy and damp ...

So the journey finally started...! I had been looking forward to this trip for months and months although it being only a 3 week trip. Since TravelPod is only a new discovery I have decided to backdate some of my handwritten journal that I kept for these 3 weeks. The actual time of this entry may be a little bit closer to November 2009... I hope you'll enjoy it all the same although I do want to warn you as I am naturally not really a writer... AND I was never really ...

... operated a three-stop fuel strategy but otherwise, apart from a midnight omelette at the end of my first 5 hour stint at the wheel before Claire took over the graveyard shift, we did the journey without any breaks. And made it with an hour to spare, easy! The van has proved yet again to be absolutely legendary and coped with the marathon journey without the slightest tremor. We even had time to pop into a French hypermarket and blow the last of the budget on several crates of wine ...
