Very swish Cookie.

Looks really good, Cookie.  Caravans are so well organised and compact, I am always impressed when I see inside one, your photos are great.

Cookie, love the neutral colour. Can add any splash of colour there.
We had the car serviced in Bendigo and I went shopping for small Xmas gifts. There is a fab kitchen shop and a lovely gift shop that has the most unusual selection of books. Bought 3. The most interesting one is how to use the basic Magic Cake recipe to make a variety of different cakes.
Will post photo when we get back to Invermay on Sunday.

The van looks lovely cookie, what's the thing hanging down over the bed?  Many travelling adventures ahead for you, when and where will the first one be?

Judy I guess you mean the frame thing. It is a pop top van and that helps you to put the pop top up. We cant put it up under the patio as it is too tall. There is one at each end and you just push it up and it lefts the top. We prefer pop tops as they are so airy.

We had hoped to get away before Christmas but life has descended upon us and I don't think we will be able to. So we will wait until next year when the kidlets go back to school and head off somewhere for a test holiday.

Thanks for the explanation cookie, I was thinking you'd bump your head on it if you sat up quickly LOL.

I was wondering what they were as well, Judy .... I thought maybe some sort of clothes frame or something to hang things from.

Yes it had me stumped too Marina, just shows we don't know much about caravans doesn't it LOL.

Pop top ones anyway. I will try to remember to post a photo of it up if I remember.

I bought the kids a fairy floss machine, and a chocolate fountain too

They will love those Robyn. Lots of lovely tropical fruit in the chocolate fountain.

Van looks lovely and comfy Cookie, bet you're both itching to get away.

Thanks Katj.

Ral bought me a German made ham knife and garden fork for Xmas. I am buying him a battery operate tree trimmer with a telescopic extender. It has a small chain saw on the end.

Lovely gifts to each other Chookie
