France 2 UK

chapter 41 - France 2 UK



Dear Diary....
Now what I need... is to go to the Church and revel all my sins... mheeeee :)

After the hard work in France , Mum and Dad have decided to come back to UK in a very low motion and appreciating the views.

After they left the Pommes, they drove to a camping park) near by and they had a rest while looked at the web to see how the superficial world is going ;)
This camping park was nice and had a big lake PLUS they had internet code ... yuuupppyy !!! It was just outside of Pompadour in Camping "Les Etoiles",
Mum and Dad stayed for one night and in the morning ... off we go ;)

It was a long drive so they stopped later in the day in a very friendly French Village called "La Blank".
Of course they didn't miss the chance to make a tour around the village and get to have dinner in the garden wood bench hi hi hi ... was very fun (there was an old man who kept following mum and dad insisting to tell us a story about something they really couldn't understand... but EY... he had a very nice bunch of Cats around him :) blessssss !!

They found a small castle and they walked around then they went to sleep very early.

Next morning ..off we go again.. (always on the go.. e ne ?)


Soon they stopped in other French Village for a break and some food ..
This time, dad parked me in a place which had a sign say: "Place de heros" (place of the hero's)  and on the back of the sign, was a cemetery of solders from the second world war !!
I really didn't understand why Dad was laugh so much... was no fun at all !
But ey... Do we need to die for our country to be recognised as an hero ?
Questions !!

After a meal in a little pizza caffe, we got back to the road and drive till very late.
No way they could find a camping park !
Not because was very essential but mum and dad was in the road  driving for 2 days and they really wanted a shower but there was no camping park for many many miles... until finally , they found a very strange camping park.
This park even had cameras around but didn't have hot water of any conditions PLUS, looked like there were only residents. Sort of a long term camping park.
Mum and dad did try to found someone to book in but it was quite all around and didnt see no one around... cool, so we stayed for the night, and didnt find no one in the morning either..so that was a freebee night :) There was not much going on in that place just big pitches , but no electrics.. no hot shower.. no pay.
Thats it... sleep !

After a good sleep, we left because it was till a long way to drive...drive..drive..We made few more stops and got to the Ferry long before the departing time, so we still had time there for a little rest.

Luckily, when we got back to UK, there was a few very nice sunny days. That made it a bit easier to climates back with English weather :):)
and then...
Home Sweet home :o)

Do you think is all over ??
Just turn the page and you will see some more adventures of
Freeka... The Camper vrrrruuuumm :) 





By the way....
INSERT COIN... Please :)

Chapter 25 - Oil / Breaks

Chapter 25 - Oil / Filters / Breaks
Dear Diary...
Yesterday Mum and Dad have been giving me a general clean inside.
Today, dad took me to the garage and they changed my Fuel filter and Oil. They cleaned my air filter, so was no need to change.
They did  a service on my Breaks / wheels but the news are not the best...
You want to know why ??


My Breaks master cylinder is dropping the break fluid, which is Dangerous on the road :(

I mean... 1 week to go in a long journey and now this is just what I need...
Yes, dad has been around brokers to find a replacement master cylinder but until now, just found 1 place (new master cylinder) which ask for £113.00, this of course, without the labour.
All together can go up to £ 200.00.
Dad spent the day in the garage and tried to solve this problem but no luck...
Mechanic recommend dad to keep an eye on the fluid box and dont let it go to empty or air can go in the breaks and this will be the end !! :( ohhh dear!!)

Anyways... I have my service done...
Labour      -> £50.00
Oil          -> £31.00
Oil Filter -> £10.39
Of course all this prices include 20% of VAT
All together was under £100... yupppyyyy ,
Dad was counting on this price but was not counting on Master Cylinder issue :(

And now ??

Yes, insert coin please because if dad have to pay this stupid money for the part I need , the money for travelling will be very short and this will create issues... I think !!
Then we will  need lots of tissues ..

Thats all for tonight dear diary...
I go to bed and pray to lord to give me luck for tomorrow  so dad can find a master cylinder at the brokers for a cheap price.
Night, night...

Chapter - 20 - Key barrel

Chapter 20 - The Key barrel

Dear Diary....
Fuck this !! I am really pissed off !!
You want to know why ??


My key barrel is gone.. broken... 
Dad can not take the key out of the barrel and only can start and stop me.

After some search in car parts, Dad was informed that a original key barrel will cost £120 and take 5 weeks to arrive... GREAT !

After this exciting information, dad run to the garage and ask advise from the mechanic , who recommended him to go to a brokers and get one.
Brokers dont have this memorabilia any more but the mechanic told  Dad ,if he does not find an original, he always can put a peugeot one!!
As they say in India... (same same but different !!)
And so it was... Dad did get a Peugeot one for £20 and run to the mechanic who told him to go back on Thursday to get this fixed... ufff... 
will be a day before I have to go to the T.O.F gathering...

Lets pray....
