Right, my suspicions have been confirmed. I am travelling with a right pair of eejits. Especially Her Ladyship, list maker extraordinaire. She’s been talking about this trip for well over a year (if memory serves, it was her idea in the first place), she’s been shopping and packing and making lists for months.

During their six-day outing in the caravan in May she must have spent at least three of those six days making lists of all the things they’d forgotten that time (me included!) and would have to bring next time.

So, on Saturday we finally arrived at the campsite in Vrsar in Croatia and started unpacking. What had she forgotten to bring? Only the sheets, the pillow cases and her toothbrush!

Not the most auspicious of starts. I think we are in for a bumpy ride.
