So day 1 of the new adventure and as we are woken by the biggest storm. thunder, lightening, rain. Typical. But being the optimist I'm guessing it will pass soon enough, so grab my brolly and head on down to Travellers Auto Barn to pick up our campervan as planned. I was hoping to be on our jolly little way to see some jumping crocs by lunch time but no. The van was not sorted properly. It still had to be taken into the garage to get registered (MOT) and 'it should be ready this afternoon' I was told. So after an aggressive snooze back home and a trip to the post office I get a call, "erm the van started shuddering when it reached 80km, it needs to be fixed, it will be ready tomorrow afternoon!"
Agghhhh......I feel like Sean Penn in the movie 'U Turn'. Hopefully we WILL leave tomorrow and my day doesn't get quite as bad as his.
