Dutch Courage

After 2 nights at our favourite campsite so far, we are heading 40 miles further north into The Netherlands.

You can tell Rache and Bri are turning into real campers now they wax lyrically about how clean the shower blocks are! Saddos.

You will be sorry to hear that I have been having a bit of a problem with 2 ticks, one very close to my eye. Anyway last night, after Bri completed his course on tick removal, a 1 minute video on YouTube, armed with a kitchen fork and sufficient alcohol to give him Dutch courage, he set about the task. I don't know who was quivering most, me or him, but 2 little critters successfully removed with their teeth still waggling. I get a treat for being brave and Bri gets the satisfaction of another success.
