Diary Entry – 12th December 2023

Now i am not saying that i am getting itchy feet but i have started planning our return. Not as in back to the UK but certainly when we will leave this campsite and how long it will take us to get back up north. One thing is for sure i wont be driving it in 4 days, no chance. In theory i want to back in May as i have said i will do some stuff in the shop for The Dodge as it is prime beginning of the season by then and the weather should be on the turn into summer. At least the clocks will have gone forward and the nights should be lighter.

I wanted to maybe do a 7 week amble back to Tangier med but Mum thinks that may be too long. So may have to compromise on 4 weeks but that would be South a bit then east towards the desert and up then alongside the Algerian border and then up towards Cueta and see some of the med coast instead of the Atlantic coast. That is the beauty of having a big old clear out of all the stuff we have not used to make us as light as possible. I really do dread to think what we weighed on the way down.

If we weighed a lot more i would feel so much more comfortable driving around and would feel much more at ease being more adventurous on the roads. SO on top of the list of all the other stuff i want to get done to the van whilst i am here i want to get the vehicle serviced and get some one to check it over. The power steering is making a bit of a funny noise when the vehicle is on full lock so i want that checking out as well. It took me ages to feel at ease in the camper and i guess i just need to learn to trust the moho as well. Which is funny when you think i’ve probably driven it 6000 odd miles.
