Sunshine, Sunshine

What a change in the weather, mist first thing this morning followed by a glorious sunny day.

After a shower and breakfast we took a short trip off to TravelWorld motorhomes at Telford, no not to buy a new motorhome but to change the toilet wand which had developed a fault and after only two uses, so it was back to the people we purchased it off. While there we also picked up a new pressure relief valve for the Atwood water heater which has been dripping water for the past few days so that’s a job for me to fit it soon and that should be interesting.

We arrived back at the RV with enough time to done our cycle helmets and take a short ride down through the village and onto the millennium way. Well it was to be a short ride, and hats off to Kay she managed to complete the, none stop round trip of eight miles. Poor Kay complained of cramps in her ankles and feet but was so determined to complete the ride. Shh… I was dead proud of her, I can’t mention where my aches and pains are but needless to say sitting is a sore point. So to compensate we both had a nice Beef salad lunch in the tea rooms.

We spent the rest of the afternoon sitting in the sun watching the rally caravans’ arrive on the rally pitch including a nice four winds Hurricane RV while chatting and drinking tea with our two neighbours from across the way.

The sky over Stafford has been full of gliders wheeling and swooping all afternoon and as the sun started to set we had the nice sight of a dark coloured hot air balloon floating effortlessly on the evening air.
