start tomove in a few days!

'Tommy' is now back with its new fuel pump, and tried out driving with the trailer and car, seems to work OK....
Noodle has been speyed... poor thing but she seems to be ok and doesn't look like she has had anything done at all. We decided better that than spanish dogs hanging around when she goes into season.

Starting to say our goodbyes which feels really strange, although we will be back... at some point???????
Taunton here we come.. on thursday

its getting close!!

The time is getting closer for us to start our journey... a little scared but in a nice way. A little bit of a panic is happening at the moment as we have had to order a new fuel pump for 'Tommy' from America it will be here next week we hope. I seem to live in hope where Tommy is concerned. I still keep threatening to get a caravan hoping that will do the trick, not sure who is winning the battle.

Noodle now has her passport and I think we have decided to have her spayed before we go, she doesn't want to be bothered by all those Spanish males eh! Not looking forward to her having to go in a kennel for the journey across the sea, but hey ho she is young and I am sure she will get over it. It will probably be myself and Robert that are the most concerned. I think she will face it in her usual manner of 'oh well I will go to sleep'.

We get the trailer tomorrow, we can then practice putting the car and extra luggage onto it, and seeing what else we must get rid of..... (not my craft stuff!)

Reading Spanish books as much as possible now to at least get some of the basics, I hope it will get easier when I get there.

Now in the last session of being in plaster cant wait for it to come off, getting miffed with it now, and feeling the restrictions it causes me, can't drive, can't just go to the shops, etc. etc...

This weekend we start visiting people to say our cheerios, Alan and Rachel (my brother and his wife) being the first on Sunday. sad and happy all at the same time, weird.

Will try to report a bit more often. Bye for now xx
