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 ??

Chapter 22 - PsySundays

Chapter 22 - PsySundays (Brighton)

Dear Diary...

I know this is not a massive adventure as the ones that will come this summer but I can call it a intro for the upcoming adventures :)
Mum, Dad and a friend have took me near the sea.. yahhhhhooooooo !
Yes , they took me to Brighton and this was a long drive down to the coast.
3 hours drive from Swindon to Brighton !
Was not bad and even being a slow camper-van, I managed to do a good mileage for the diesel expend PLUS, I managed to be as quick as possible (for my age , I still do very well)
All was fine and I had good fun.
Dad had to go to Brighton to DJ in a club, the club was in front of the beach and the day was very hot...
Wicked !! :)

We arrive in Brighton around 3oclock in afternoon and the place was full of cars and campers
No space to park but lucky, Dad know the place from before and he managed to find a parking space for free :)

The club closed at 01.00am and we start to drive back.

I know was not a massive adventure to be registered here but was a 6 hours journey driving up and down without any incidents.
During our driving, many cars was stopped on the road with over heating and even we saw a Jeep caught on fire :/
I did get a bit hot as the day was one of the hottest days of this year but dad was careful to check my water and oil before we left to Brighton.

No incidents to register and dad got back home happy as a pig in shit !! :)

Do you want a full report ??

Even counting that Dad still have to change my Oil and filters -> (Diesel, air, oil) I did a good rating on a mileage,  I manage to make 260miles with £40 of diesel but I would make the 300 miles with the same amount of fuel (around 28/29 litres).
£40 = 28 Litres of Diesel (in UK)
300 Miles = £40
Dad hopes I can make more after the oil and filters have been changed ;)

Next I will go to Cosmo Festival and that will be again a full on drive.

Mum and dad have been take some photos in Brighton...
Do you want to see ?


Yes... I know am a bitch... but I dont run on water !!! 
Anywayyyyyy .. here photos for your curiosity :)




Be ready for the next chapter of the
Amazing Freeka !
