Being our first trip out in the new/old motorhome.

Getting the upcoming trip finalized for Saturday, filling water tank, putting in essentials, checking all systems are go and ticking all the boxes.

Izzy. Where's my sleeping bag?

Me. Dunno.

Upturn the house, check every room, go into the attic, empty every box, empty every suitcase [7x, don't ask], check every cupboard, wardrobe, under bed, check garage, check sheds, check pockets, desperation is now setting in. Sleeping bag nowhere to be found.

Friggin exhausted after searching for nearly 5x hours.

Me. I'll ring the people who bought the Adria.

Me to Izzy. No, we didn't leave the sleeping bag in the Adria,

Me. Lets go to Millets, we'll buy one there.

Izzy. Good idea.

Off we go, spend £38 on a sleeping bag, not much, but this will be the 6th sleeping bag that should be in our possession.

We get everything together in the house and start to load everything into Erica. Clothes are the last thing to load.

Izzy has all the cupboards and drawers on the offside, I have all the cupboards and drawers on the near side.

Last bag of clothes.

Open a cupboard and their is the ?%*@?#@ sleeping bag!

Izzy had loaded it the first day of Erica arriving!

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.

... did neither of you pair of eejits think to check the van cupboards as well?! 🙄:ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:

Er... remind me... hmm... exactly how many years have you two been motor homing...?!! 🤔 🤭 ;)🤗 😘
 
I'll do some pics whilst we are away.

As for the sleeping bag, all I can say it must be an age thing or there is too much going on at the moment.

I thought I'd lost a pair of reading glasses, looked high and low for them over that three days. Found them yesterday doubled up with a pair of driving glasses, both glasses in one case!

Defo losing the plot. 🤪

Ah that’s how you couldn’t find the sleeping bag, you lost your specs Ral. :ROFLMAO:
 
It's an age thing Ral.

I went away for a week at the end of July without the dogs. As I only have a little van and had to take things with me that I don't normally take, I unloaded all the dogs' stuff and put it in the house. Beds, leads, food, bowls, blankets etc.

I can't find their bowls anywhere, been hunting for weeks. Having to take old takeaway containers for them to use. Refuse to buy any more, that would cost money and I don't need any more dog bowls! Well, I won't when I find the originals.

That'll be "woman looking" then. A bit like "man looking" but much more dangerous if mentioned by the guilty person's sidekick.

Cheers
