    This week, after trying to buy a remote cottage in Ireland, followed by some winter van life fun in Scotland, we are driving south for Christmas.
    Its a long road trip so we thought it would be fun to pass the travel time answering as many of your questions as we possibly can.
    We don't have all the news we'd like on our dream remote cottage yet, as Lou explains in this vid, new problems are coming up in the surveys! Hopefully we will have a full update for you as soon as we have all the info, and hopefully that will be before Christmas. In the mean time we hope you've enjoyed this van life uk road trip with us as we make our way south.

    Love oddball people. Converted a 41 seater coach to a mobile home back in the early 70s (wife and 2 children). Police were friendly in those days, if there were complaints they would stop and suggest a suitable location to stop for a day or two. Lived on an 8 metre Bobcat catamaran for a year sailing around the UK. Also lived in caravans as we travelled round Britain.
    Now bricks and mortar so I have something to leave to the children and at 76 I need a relatively quiet life.
    Keep up the good work!

    We moved over from the UK to Mayo in 1999 - best thing we ever did! If you're ever traveling near Westport and need somewhere to do some washing/have a bath/cup of tea, a chat and perhaps dinner and a few drinks - get in touch. Plenty of parking space, animal friendly :) Not sure HOW you'd get in touch, but am sure we could work something out :) Meantime, have a great Christmas, and best of luck with the cottage.

    Your banter and the occasional spot of innuendo just suits you, and us, so well. Please just do what comes naturally, it's what we all love.

    Wrong! we already have. I can't remember which episode number, but it was where she had a ride on a ground based free fall machine. After the ride we saw (only for a few seconds) the aforementioned Louise sans headware. I think she made reference to it so she must have known about it. Anyone else remember that episode?

    We have 2 Beagles aged 9. One of them had TPLO Cruciate surgery aged 3, thankfully the other leg has been fine, as the percentage rate of a second leg going is around 70% She’s been on daily medication for a number of years as she has a lot of arthritis.
    She has also had Meningitis twice, first time was just before her 1st birthday, such a horrible illness in dogs.
    Despite all that she still just loves to run on the beach & enjoys life.
    We are so lucky to have them both as you guys are with AJ. 😊
