Welcome to todays diary entry! Today starts the beginning of the end for the group of friends that we have spent most time with over the last few weeks, it is comforting to hear people also say how fast the last few weeks have gone. I say almost hourly, but fortunately for you guys you only have to hear it once a day. As we enter the last 3 sleeps now until we leave we have started the slow pack down and started trying to put things in the garage in a decent order, in the order that we need them out.
We definitely will be lighter on the way out as we have half of the clothes that we had on the way down along with another load of stuff out of the garage that we were never going to use. Besides the weight that i have probably put on since we have been out here and the amount that Beef has grown but we will be lighter overall i am certain of it. It is just this no mans land in between space now where we are getting ready to leave and then actually leaving but it is just the waiting around that i find annoying.

It must be the same for Derren and Cass but even more so as they are going tomorrow. They walked past earlier on and advised that they were all packed and ready to go but they were waiting for the painter to come and do his thing but he cancelled on them and then they were asked to go to Agadir to the garage instead now but it means they can go. They were planning on going to the Restaurant at the bottom and we asked if we could come along which they said we could so that was 3 good bye meals in 3 nights. The Brookes tonight, The Freemans on Wednesday and ours on the Thursday.
So it will be road trip until late March then a month in Spain. We are thinking about making a previously unthinkable decision and we have been considering the ferry back from Santander to Portsmouth on the big ferry again. We have a couple of reasons as to why, firstly i just cannot bring my self to do that drive through France with the tolls and the vast amount of time it takes for us in the Motorhome. I also think that if we plan for it better with the correct medication and those things for your wrist. We also cannot keep getting these horrendous crossings and hopefully we should be due a good one. So we are thinking 20th/ 21st March making our grand return back into the UK. We spent most of tonight at the meal talking about what food we are most looking forward to getting our hands on. I just kept reeling off different things that i cannot wait to eat.
