Welcome to todays diary entry! What an incredible job of my shower tray! I cannot believe it, it is absolutely brilliant so after pretty much since we had the motorhome we should imminently be able to have a shower in a water tight shower tray and not one that lets as much water through it as the Niagara Falls. I didn’t sleep very great as we were on an industrial estate there were obviously other business that were up and wokring from before it was light and once i am awake i do find it difficult to get back over.
The Speedcoat guys were in work at 9am so that was our cue to leave and we headed off to a greasy spoon café on the industrial estate to have some sensibly priced food unlike Devon. By the time they were done by about 10:45 we were packed up and on our way. The bathroom door was still fastened up because it still needs a little more time to set and because we don’t have the doors on we had to keep a Beef out. Although we did get a sneal preview of the inside and it looks brilliant!

The next stop was something i was extremely excited about, we were on the way from Shrewsbury to Stoke to see my Mum as she didn’t know we were coming back yet she was not expecting us until Friday but we had a 2 hour drive to get to Newcastle Under Lyme. It has been 6 months since my Mum has seen the Beef for over 6 months and i hadn’t seen her either so we knocked on and said it was Amazon and opened the door and walked in. My Mum shed a little tear the Beef then spent the next 2 hours pottering around picking things off the shelves, tv stand or anywhere he could reach and then just throwing them on the floor.
My Mum has a large Fox Red Lab and the Beef followed him around and just stroked him and then the dog would walk off excited followed closely by the Beef who would stroke him again. It was so nice to see my Mum. We left there about 3pm and made our way to our other home from home to see our pals at A and E Leisure. It is incredible how quickly you settle right back in and it feels like you have never been away. This was certainly one of those times and it was brilliant to see everyone. Looking forward now to the start of the festival season.
