Now the winters gone and the salt is washed off the road Olive has come out from her winter den. She will be 3 on the 1st of May so MOT was required, she passed with flying colours this week. She has had a general tidy up and we had to refit the Amigo kitchen unit (with some modifications) due to the insurance going sky high. For this summer the white trim on the mirrors, hubcaps and light rims are off, she will now be sporting new shiny chrome trim on these parts. Now prepared for the summer ahead, today we are off to Constable country to try out our recently acquired inflatable Advanced Elements sea kayak, but not on the sea, we will be on the river Stour. Other trips booked so far are North Norfolk coastline Kombi sleepover Lyme Regis St Ives St Palais Sur Mer
We did try for tickets for the Car Festival but had no luck. We may try and go to Latitude.

£165 difference as they classed my own kitchen as a DIY, which it was but no different to the Amigo, what you get with the Amigo is a kitchen cupboard with a hand pump tap and a removable plastic washing bowl. They didn't class mine as a factory fit, anyway it's back in and I have taken out the tap as we don't need one to make some additional work top with a few storage pieces from our Skandinavian friends.

That seems very petty, my interior is all DIY and I had some issues with the main insurance companies, that is why I went to Comfort as they were fine.
