Got it in one !!! (it's Mo by the way - internet access at work is great !) - as you will realise the first line of your life story gave it away ! - how bizarre is that , certainly would have been a surprise - didn't realise you were back camping again - better make sure we've plenty of beers for catching up time ! - as you can see we've gone to the 'dark side' with the tin tent , realised at Easter last year that with the kids growing up (8 & 10 now) we were falling over each other in the Pullman and getting fed up feeling a bit cold / damp / packing up wet - we were about the last to give in after 12 years so not done too bad !

There's always a chance they've told Mandy and she's not passed it on (as usual !!) - I'll check tonight , actually working in Sheffield today - off to Mum & Dad's for tea and to sort out their PC and new DVD player ! - Chris gone off today with school to Howarth for 3 days (1st time away) due back at half four Friday - so probably be getting on for 7ish before we get there - will let Mandy know you're coming - or I might just leave it and wait to see the look on her face !! Downside to caravan is not storing at home , but got it at Fallwood Marina - only 10 mins away so not too bad - also not looking forward to the entrance being a bit tight at Thorpe - probably just close my eyes and hope for the best !!

Fallwood Marina is just down the hill form us - we are in Bramley!  Don't say the entrance at Thorpe is tight - Andy reads this forum and he'll moan!  He likes the Pathfinder, but hasn't quite go his head round the idea of sitting outside when you need a coat on, and tight gates that threaten scratches on his 'baby' (the flippin Mondeo, although we might use the Picasso this weekend - Mondeo is automatic and tends to be up and down the gears a lot when towing on winding roads!!) wind him up too!  At least he relaxes once the trailer is up and he's got a beer in his hand.  We'll be putting the awning on for only the second time this weekend, so fun is promised, but it does give LOADS of socialising space!  We'll see you sometime on Friday - I'll put the kettle on, and the beer will be cold for when you arrive!
