• G’day Sheila!

    February 22, 2024 in Australia ⋅ 🌬 30 °C

    Motor home pick up day. Always a bit fraught, accom check out, taxi to depot, van admin, bags galore, getting to grips with the driving, food shop, navigation, a new space to negotiate - plus it’s been roasting hot today - so hard to think straight.

    As we drove away from the depot, we were straight away reminded of the sound effects which come with van living! A cacophony of thuds, jangles, and general misconduct from the onboard equipment. Luckily nothing was broken, despite it feeling like the cupboards would be full of broken bits.

    So, here we are, on our first site at Snug Beach. Nowhere near sorted yet, but I remembered the utter bewilderment of the first day from our last trip, and am staying cool (well sort of it was 34 c earlier 🥵). I’m doing my usual of pretty much reorganising all the cupboards and drawers, to make room for our bits. Feels like there’s less storage in here, so real creativity needed…..🤔

    We’re in a different camper this time so a different design/layout. So with no further ado, let me we introduce you to Sheila……. She’s quite new, and welcoming, but no pushover. If she doesn’t want something in the drawer she’s already let me know!

    Note the addition of a pull out step to get in and out, very welcome for this shortie, but inside the microwave and cupboards are well out of my league, so a new step has been purchased for indoor use 😂

    So, I’ll leave this post for now, as we try to build a new working relationship with Sheila!
