    Have you tried those pest brackets? They are infused with citronella. We've just used them in Spain and we didn't get bitten!! Game changer! That beach is lush. Aw slaw isn't a wally!!! It's always good to check you've got your tackle before you travel!! Oo that's steak looks good. Beautiful sunset! What a lovely day. Oh no, poor Mrs S - bad times!! Looks like you're having a great time. Cheers 🍻

      Thanks you two! It was a lovely holiday. Just a couple of setbacks 🤣 We used the Pestects bracelets on our last holiday in Germany and didn’t get bitten until the last night and I think they’d lost their potency by then. We’ll deffo use them again! Thanks for watching 🚍☀️

    Hi guys.
    Lovely day on the beach. Dogs made us laugh. They did get braver as the day went on.
    Hey Slaw you're not on your own, just changed tow car bet I forget to put the essentials back in.
    Sorry about the food poisoning Mrs. Slaw. Been there mine were cockles, not nice at all. Have to be so careful with shellfish.
    Weather looks absolutely brilliant there.
    Enjoy the rest of your holiday guys.
    Thumbs up thumped 👍

    Now I understand your reply to an earlier comment of mine where Mrs Slaw said don’t worry it gets worse yet! Now fully understand, Billy will have been bereft without his favourite toy to keep him company 😎🤓
    I laughed seeing you both out running; my immediate thought was that if my wife were still alive she would have told you to sit down until the feeling had passed! She could never understand why I tried to run 5 days a week simply because it made my Army physical test so much easier.
    Hope that Mrs Slaw regains all of her energy very quickly and that you are able to properly enjoy the remainder of your holiday.

    Glad Spain is proving so fabulous & hope Mrs S is fully recovered. I was inspired to install a HUD unit in our MH having seen how useful yours is. Just arrived back from couple of weeks in France & had glorious sunshine. When I put on my Polaroid sun specs I couldn't see the reflection of the HUD on the windscreen. What am I missingor doing differently to you?

    Quick question do you use Sat Nav or Maps if you do non toll roads through France
    We have our sat nav set for non tolls but it sometimes seems to take us through towns villages instead of the quick root round them

      Hi Stephen, Mrs Slaw always plots a route in her road atlas. Sometimes we choose to do a small part of péage (toll road) to avoid a huge diversion, such as Millau. It’s always good to look at a map so you have an idea of the roads you will take so you can make an informed decision. Have a fantastic trip! 🚍☀️
