The wind howled all through the night with mournful groans and sudden gusts that rocked the RV on its stands, not that we really noticed being snug as bugs in a rug as we slumbered through the night. At daybreak the weather was warm but overcast and grey, so we decided it was a morning of doing the chores.
I started by emptying the black and grey wastes and then flushing out the black tank with a toilet wand, followed by re-topping up the fresh water tank. Then I thought that it was about time I moved the RV to rotate the tyres and turn the engine to preserve the tyre walls and help pump lubricant around the engine. By moving the RV I also lifted the jacks as it stops them seizing up and getting rusty. This was followed by the task of running the Onan Generator for ten minutes to keep that lubricated as well.
As I did these few chores Kay nipped off to do the washing and then cleaned out the RV before setting out our lunch of omelette and oatcakes (Hmm Yummy).
OK now watered and fed the urge to get out for a few hours so a quick walk to the village and back got us in the mood to venture out a bit further, had it been not so windy and grey, we would have used the cycles but opted for the car instead.
Kay wanted some photos of the houses and interesting things we’ve seen so it was off to Haughton & Gnosal to take some pictures.

Love your pics! I was telling my family of our new traveling friendship and they had seen some of the pics I reposted on Facebook. My brother-in-law asked... How do you maneuver the narrow streets with your RV? Gee good question! Gnosal High Street look barely wide enough for two small vehicles! Even with Google Earth, the streets and roads look narrow.
I do enjoy 'our' travels together! The historic and the quaint!
Continued safe travels!
