Paul Simon’s song seems
quite appropriate for the latter part of 2015 – our trips in Theodora have sort
of fizzled out.
Ruth has already mentioned
her knee problem, which was a major factor in aborting our week in
Pembrokeshire (see last post). We had also planned a trip away in late October,
taking in our annual trip to the big NEC motorhome show, and one in late
November. Neither of these materialised, largely due to impending major
upheavals chez Roach.
I will be retiring in 2016
and we plan to move to Stratford upon Avon . So the whole
house sale/purchase process is underway, and has somewhat eaten into available
time. When a house viewing involves a round trip of 200 + miles, it does tend
to wipe out a whole day.
We did manage to get to the
NEC show just for a day, and came away with some treats for Theodora, (tyre
covers to protect the wheels while in storage) and for me (a small CADAC gas
barbeque to take away with us).
Hopefully 2016 will bring
more trips in the van than previous years – otherwise what was the point of
retiring?
