This morning we appreciated what a lucky escape we had had when the staff spent over 2 hours clearing the storm damage from the pitch next door to ours, including some big timbers that had fallen from directly above us but had landed about 2’ away! Our local weather expert (guess who?) says lightening doesn’t strike twice so he isn’t going to bother with the storm lashings anymore…I will keep you posted.
Our 3 hour journey to Budapest was uneventiful – we even paid the tolls (remote video sensing you see). We are staying about 5km out of the city in a campsite with pool and large water slide much to Olivia’s excitement. You know when your husband has harmed your child when she passes comment on a large American style motor home with (said in a Geoffrey Boycott style North Yorkshire accent) “Mummy, that is a beauty”. Stu sat her down with some quadratic equations later to see if that is passed on.
Tomorrow is forecast to cool down from the mid 30’s to the mid 20’s making it ideal to enjoy the sights – and coffee/cake shops of Budapest.
PS I have decided that I don’t like the job of picking out our pitch anymore, because I get it in the neck when the site is not level etc etc… this particular pitch is nice and shady but unfortunately our wheels are off the ground to compensate for the undulating ground…. My fault apparently!
PPS As long as my beautiful undemanding wife is happy, my life is complete.

In 1938 Lassisiao Jose Biro, a Hungarian journalist invented the ball point pen ( In 1939 he was found dead in a washing machine – or does that just happen to my Biros?)
Hi all, that seemed like some storm and we think we have it bad. Glad you decided to pay for things this time round Stuart. Hope you are all still having a great time. Love Mum and Dad xxxx
