Thunderbirds are go!!!

Departure day has finally dawned after weeks, no, months of planning and preparation. Delfin has been hooked up to the electric for two days to ensure the freezer is ready to receive three chickens and half a pig. Won't dwell on the meat out of respect for the vegetarians out there.I don't know about motorhome, we seem to have all the characteristics of a mobile supermarket!
Fresh water tank is filled, taps and toilet are primed, beds are made and gas tanks topped up. Diesel, thanks to Tesco vouchers, will go in as we pass our local store We have enough maps and books to paper a house and the clothes lockers are bulging.Remarkably,we've even found room for the ukuleles. I wonder if noise pollution, I hesitate to call it music, is an issue for camels? Just checked the temperature in Marrakech, 34 degrees, nevertheless the navigator has sneaked in a hot water bottle!! I forsee choppy waters ahead and I don't mean the English Channel!!
Thunderbirds are go. North Africa here we come!!


Is this it? Are we really on our way? I'm just a little excited!!
