I have been busy packing it up today, I feel the windbreak, chairs and table may be a bit optimistic but the Fray Bentos pie has been safely transferred from the old van in case of emergencies. I think I just have to fill fridge in the morning and then when Nick finishes at lunchtime we will be off. Very excited, had my first go at filling the lpg thing, I have no finger nails left but the nice man at Pemco Pitstop in Yeovil was very helpful, 57p a litre.

Thank you for the kind words, I think I said on here a couple of years back that I bought the Fay Bentos pie before our first meet as I thought it was compulsory and thought there might be a wierd game involved like cheese rolling. I'm still not entirely sure when I would be desperate enough to eat one especially now with a fridge that's a decent size.

well done and don't forget the CAN OPENER , no point in having a scrummy fray bentos pie or two if you cant open the thing , teeth marks on a fray bentos tin is a sign of desperation:)

enjoy your first tip

I understand the warranty on the oven is void if you forget to use the tin opener....
I'm sure this isn't the reason why Carolyn started this thread so Carolyn - I hope you have a great trip out in your new motorhome!!

Back safe, Fray Bentos pie remains deeply buried in a cupboard. Everything worked well including the TV so after a long walk and the Rugby I was too drained to do anything other than eat out! Looking forward to seeing you too , Martin and Carron.
