HOUSE HUNTING
















Here we are House-Hunting in France and here is John hard at work house-hunting. It is a pity that I can't put these together as a flash animation. The rest I will leave John to describe.

Adding to the joys of House-Hunting we have had a serious revolt by the Wheely Cabin herself. Apart from the internal farting habit she developed everytime we set off on a new journey she suddenly got mean with the water we had loaded her with. First she disgorged all the hot water outside the van when we turned the pump on. Next she simply refuses to let any water in or out either through the taps or the overflows or the dumping system. All of this at a camp site that has a freezing sanitory block and only cold water from push buttons. Then the gas is harder to obtain as we can't use the bottles we have and had to buy a new bottle and regulator so when the gas gave out we gave up and spent a night in a Formule 1 hotel. All the repair places are busy and all the camp sites closed. We drove 50 miles to Perpignan for hotwater and internet, Hopefully the Wheely Cabin will be fixed for Christmas!
