not long enough
unless you throw a toilet in, that trip will not be much fun Bill

I know a shovel can dig a hole, but in reality, why when you have a perfectly useable MH?

Putting distance between you and your memories bill doesn't always work. It will all look better when the sun comes out again..

Best of luck Bill, only thing is memories have a nasty habit of coming with you.
They will always be there and every day it get better we still talk are still friends just have to get used to living different lives.
this is just a we adventure then back to work might go back truck driving tramping for a bit the company is still running my sons looking after it.
still have the big van but just don't want to go away in it just now just take bit of time. watching the wee man tomorrow at his cross country tomorrow he is running in a inter schools competition.
a few more thing to do to the wee van before I set off just going to Belgium to start met up with old friends.
might head further but don't know yet it will have to be sites and Aires just now till I sort out the night heater .
cheers bill

Don't be a stranger to your forum friends they do care about you even if they have never met you in real life.
Stay safe.

All the best Bill.

Always read your posts, with interest, and admire what you have done for " the wee man".

Good luck on your travels. Post regularly, with pics if you can.(y)

The wee man looks like he thinks it's nice and comfy in the wee van!

Enjoy your break Wildbill. It might just give you the space you need to come to terms with what's happened. Change is always a challenge and building a new life takes time. So give yourself the time you need. It will take as long as it takes. Find comfort and pleasure in the little things. Actively look for the positive. Find a place that brings you some mental and emotional peace. Recharge, refresh. Go well.
