Good morning campers!

Yesterday, Tim just HAD to get up on top of Harvey. Secretly he's been dying to find a reason to mend, check or adjust something. He's had a week of not having to do anything like that, so this was HIS moment. He saw a drip! A drip was all it took for him to take to the ladder. Dashing up there was quick as the adrenaline took over. What a moment.
Super hero Tim

The Silver Snail (Tim's tiny Daihatsu van) is usually packed with tools for EVERY eventuality. He has 6 big boxes that his mattress lies on top of. In the boxes are everything to mend roads, decorate houses, drill, saw and unblock the pipes of Maidstone or any other town he finds itself in. Tim's dilemma was how much could he take away with him on this trip? Well, surprisingly he managed to reduce it to one smallish tupperware box. The generator he took as hand luggage was confiscated at Gatwick.

Well, the drip he had to sort out was just the air conditioner. I think he knew that really, but being the sort of man he is, is was a good excuse to climb up onto Harvey anyway. Until recently I was teaching well over 600 children in a week.......it was the only way God could prepare me to be Mrs Tim Parfitt!

One happy man!
