A lovely start to the morning of a snuggly lie in reading my book while Davies also slept in and Ady and Scarlett went to feed the animals. Scarlett then brought me a cup of tea and joined me in bed and I read her a story.
We finally got up and all had pancakes for late breakfast / early lunch. The kids did some drawing and played with the lego while Ady and I did some outside stuff. We had some strapping which we were planning to secure the static roof on with but it didn’t work so further considering needed on that. I am finding a whole swath of people who live in static caravans on the internet though so I am sure help is at hand if I just find the right place to ask the right questions.
Then we had a bit of a tidy up as we have three sets of visitors over the next few weeks – Mum & Dad, Chris & Julie, Lynda & Stuart. L&S have not been before so I want them to get a good first impression and I want Mum & Dad to see we have done stuff since last they were here. We moved the pallets which make decking around the static and generally tidied up, I swapped the old clothes pegs on the washing line which keep blowing off for my new ‘hurricane force’ no metal bits pegs, we burnt all the cardboard and collected rubbish and emptied the toilets.
We had showers and I cooked dinner, a cake for the teashop tomorrow and two loaves of bread for the next few days. We had roast chicken followed by bramble crumble and watched Puss in Boots followed by the Man made House Kevin McLoud thing on 4od which was interesting and has been talked about to us by at least 3 people who saw the adverts and thought of us :).
hope you get a good plan for the static – sure there is someone out there with the answer 🙂
