The Retirement Thread

Jeez. Caravans seem to be huge these days! Yours is a decent size but the one at the back looks massive!

Ours is a 2 berth with end bathroom. It's classed as a 470. ie it's 4.7 metres long.
The other one in the photo is a 6 berth 655.
Maximum length for a normal van is 7.5 metres. Anything over that length requires a towing vehicle weighing more than 3500kg.

We're off for our year long trip down-under tomorrow. Need to leave around lunch time.
Do you think I should start packing?

Hideous day of harvesting, killing, brush cutting, burning weeds Too much like hard labour and a thankless task too, they will be back.
Thursday I take the morning off for some cycle sport excitement, Tour de Poitou-Charentes passes nearby

I was thinking of doing a Drago. One of each. Or is that too much?

They will be subdued soon enough by the new school term and the oncoming autumn.

More torment. Today's beer is, let me see, oh a Kronenbourg industrial with lemonade to soften the blow of a disappointing brew.
I have some very nice clairet for later, prawn linguine accompaniment but I prefer beer for general refreshment.
