It was raining so decided for a bit of indoor browsing, looked in the caravan shop first then just happily looking at the vans then stumbled upon a lovely 2014 Bailey Pegasus GT65 Bologna, the door was open so rude not to go in and look. We pick it up in 2 weeks - happy days!
This year new caravan, next year new fridge!

The Bologna is a lovely van inside, isn't it. One of those ones that just feels right when you're in it. We'd have had one if our local dealer wasn't wanting a huge amount for an 09 van.
Enjoy yourselves in it.

Hehehe.....we did a similar thing 15 years ago. Went out for a new waste paper bin for the living room.....came back with one that cost us £84,000.......we bought a new house! When and if this metal bin does final kick the bucket , it will be framed!!

Good luck with your new toy.

8 years ago we went out with some friends who already had a van but were looking to get a new one, we didn't have a van although talked about getting one later in life when we were fed up with airports.
It was a sunny Sunday afternoon, we had nothing better to do so tagged along. Seven grand later it was us who had the new van and they never did get one. We are now on NO.3 van and its our perfect 2nd home,
Airports..............what are they?
