Apart from the awning, see yesterdays page, there are still quite a few things to get ready for when you leave. Chairs to be folded, BBQ's to be fully cleaned, tables to be packed away and of course a certain amount of reorganisation in the caravan itself to ensure that nothing moves during our travels.
But first Noel went up to join Sheila to finish off the Blog/Newsletter and although the internet had been working just ten minutes before now it was down again. This has been a verhy serious problem for Stuart and Sheila as for the past two weeks with the internet being very intermittent it's not easy to conduct their business particularly when they use an internet based telephone system and to have this problem where customers cannot call and make bookings etc has been really tough for them. With constant complaints to the telephone company during the last week to ten days there have been as many as four men on site, scratching their heads and talking four hours without any sign of success, even to walking up the road looking up at the telephone cable, what they hope to achieve by looking at the cable from 20 feet downis anybody's guess. There also has been a succession of young ladies on the phone all offering help but nothing has been achieved to clear the issue.
So with Npoel being able to helpo Sheila we have decided to leave until Noel is back in the UK and perhaps within the next week or so the telephone company can resolve the matter and Noel and Sheila set up the BLOG properly. With nothing else to do back to the caravan to put the last few items away, clean my new fangled waste water evacuation system and generally tidy up before heading for the pool. We waited until it was quite late before heading back for a light dinner and then to John and Sue for a nightcap. The previous evening BBQ Noel had purchased rather a large carton of wine, around 10 litres we think, and some of that needed to be consumed before it went off. If you believe that you will believe anything. An so to bed.
