We've had a great time on our test run around England. We've visited the Cotswolds, Stratford upon Avon, Lichfield, Doncaster, Harrogate, Stockton on Tees, Rutland Water, Crawley, Hove.

The camper behaved well. We managed about 36mpg over the 20 days, and learnt that 60 mph is the happy speed for smoothing the rattles and noises. We've worked hard to reduce the rattles of the crockery etc... We still have a noise much like an excited budgy at about 50mph that we can't locate.

We're back home at the moment, we planned this week to sort any issues with the van that arose from our UK tour. We've had the tracking sorted to stop the van wandering to the left (particularly scary when driving on the right) and fitted a shower rail in the bathroom, but there's really not much to sort.

Next week sees us flying to South Africa to visit Vanda's Brother and Sister in law for 10 days. Then we're back for a few days before hitting the road for Scandinavia.
