We got to Warren Farm at about 11.30 PM as I had to do a call out for work on the way. Milly drove nice but the steering was very wallowy & I was all over the road in the wind . When we got to Brean was too late to go on the site but the night security allowed us to camp in the car park opposite. We had a peaceful night sleep, I didn't hear any wind but in the morning the van & trailer were covered in sand. We packed up & drove into the camp site. We were in Field 5, it was virtually empty when we got there. We set up our camp it was warm & dry but very windy I had to put everything in the awning to weigh it down in case it blew away.

We drove to a petrol station about 5 miles away to wash the van, I had to spend about £6 in one off these wash booth things with a lance in order to get Milly clean, while I was there I filled up with fuel & checked the tire pressures the front were on 20 PSI & the rear on 25 PSI, I now know why the van was wallowy. They are now up to 40 all around & its made a massive difference to the drive. I checked the oil I've done about 1,200 miles now since the rebuild & I had to put about 1/4 liter of oil in which isn't bad at all. I would have used about 3 or 4 liters in the old engine.

Tried out my bright Spark toaster for the first time & I was very pleased with the result:-
