Rained most of the nite which I liked as it always shows how good the tent is, found out that water lies on top of the tourer canopy so when I pulled the guide rope I got a free shower. Packed up the tent in loads of rain made Manni and I a cup of tea and we got going as I had to drop Manni off to work for 10 am. Said my goodbyes to Manni at 10.30 a.m and met up with Andy Brown, my friend in the Midlands, Andy is hoping to fly out to the U.S and do the Nashville thing and visit Graceland, he is a big Elvis fan, Andy was brilliant at helping me sort out the heat loss from the heat tank and we got some lagging and boiler wrap to sort it out.

I had lunch at my Auntie Jill and Uncle John’s house and it was lovely to see them after quite some time, they made me at home and wished me luck with the trip, My cousin Jeff was also home and we all had a look around the truck, and i think they were impressed with all i had done with the Project, they also told me that the lads from the www.heretohere.com team were not too well and had made a hard decision to turn back as their schedule was very tight. I will try to contact them tomorrow. Left the Midlands and now I’m on my way to Desbourgh to see Dave and Dani Matthew’s from www.pro-edge.co.uk I’ll be spending the nite there.
