Sea Barn Farm, overlooking Chesil Beach and Portland. It's a 2 mile road trip so we did it in one go without changing drivers. The beer fridge worked brilliantly, but I wouldn't recommend the bloody awful charcoal they sell on site though. Took ages to get the BBQ going properly.
After the last few weeks of progress on Jezebel, I've not had time to make do anything else on the old girl this week. That should change this weekend though as I'm taking her West to Teignmouth for the fitting of the cupboard doors.
Other teams however do seem to be progressing. Amba, the wagon of Team Trauma is gradually losing its emergency service vehicle markings in favour of various company sponsorship signs. Strangely, this is likely to be what is going to happen to police cars in Dorset soon too. Mark showed me around and ran through a list of exciting acquisitions he had picked up. An oak table for example. You could feel the sense of achievement in his voice as he showed off his handy work.
It seems ambulances are ideal vehicles to set up home in. Not one, but three batteries ! Enough to power the Blackpool Illuminations all season. They also have a diesel heater to keep vagrants warm or whoever else needs thawing.
As I walked around the corner, there was a black Lexus with number 41 on each front door. Excellent. Swannie has finally made his choice.
And now, only last night, news on Team 25. Ralph has been talking about what he was going to take and had been keen on an Escort cabriolet. It seems however he has gone for a 4x4 of some sort. Great news for those of us foreseeing the need to be towed.
