Belated Easter greetings to everybody. Spring has sprung, and, as always, the Miffy household begins to plan its travels - of the four, two-wheeled - even the two-footed variety. Who would have thought that one could get quite so excited over thermal baselayers ( vests and long johns to the uninitiated!), dry bags, hydration systems, and, I'm ashamed to admit, that new-fangled 'Shewee!' (No, I've not yet plucked up the courage to 'practice in the shower' as per the user instructions). Shudders.
However,'The best laid plans of mice and men' etc... Our Greenbelt arrangements have had to be tweaked suddenly, and yesterday saw us doing what we said we'd never do again after fifteen years or so of camping en France with the children. No, we're not dashing off to buy the best Millets has to offer; that would be a step too far! But (if current negotiations are successfully negotiated) we should be staying on site for the first time. All will be revealed in due course, (don't get too excited - or my stylish purple striped baselayer combo will be a sad let-down to all concerned). Let's just say we will be following true wibsite camping tradition. And, with luck, I'll have a refuge in which to down umpteen Nice Cups of Tea and contemplate my (purple-striped navel) until the cows come home.
As I said...the best laid plans.
