Our new home

On Sunday afternoon John and Judy took us out for a drive around the local area.  It was beautiful.   And I dipped my toe in the Indian Ocean - bit cold.

As John took a wrong turn on the way home, Geoff saw a caravan for sale on a driveway.  “Stop! That’s it!” he yelled.  John dutifully brought the car to a halt and we all piled out to look at the caravan.  Just happened to be the one that Geoff had been watching on ‘Gumtree’ for weeks while we were still back in the UK.  We knocked on the door of the house and the guy let us have a look at the caravan.  Seems he’d actually sold it a few days before - but the man hadn’t been able to raise the finance so it was back up for sale again.  Within our price range, immaculate condition, and everything we needed.  So we bought it!  It was just so ‘meant to be’ and we thank God for guiding us to the caravan.  We really thought we’d be a week or so before we found the right one and there we were, falling on it by mistake on our first day!  We picked it up today (Monday) and are now looking for a car to pull it.  Oh … and today when we went to buy fishing rods etc I found a deck chair/lounger for sale - with “Foxy Lady” written on the back - again we just had to have it!  So - we have the caravan, fishing rods and chairs - all we need now is the car and we’ll be off to start our camping adventure around Oz.
