    Oooh gosh, never a good sign to see an air ambulance. Hope all turned out OK for people.
    Shrewsbury is lovely. I went there a million years ago with my Ma and Pa for the Flower Show held in the park you visited. Bit like Chelsea Flower Show.

    Sorry to hear about you boiler leak. I had a leaking Truma tank on a 2010 Chieftain, after checking it wasn't the heating element seal I took the heating element out to find piting on the inside of the tank. Contacting Truma I asked how long they expected their tanks to last, since my van was only 7 years old they sent me a new tank for free on the understanding that I sent the old tank back for inspection. They confirmed there was a leak, and I got a new tank at minimal cost. Remember seeing you at Highview last July we were in the Swift with towcar.

      Hi Peter I remember, you had the good A frame that we want, I’m waiting on the rain to stop long enough for me to strip it out, could be the same thing, but this weather is hampering me doing anything, thanks for the heads up buddy and safe travels 🙏👊👍🚌🇬🇧

    Local accents at the vets, I like it lol. Wish I only needed to lose a pound 😂 I have to say, I've never really been to Shrewsbury properly and I had a boyfriend who lived there too once and it's only an hour away. I really should visit sometime. Don't think Karl would want to go as his nephew unfortunately drowned in the river there. It was a very sad and awful time. Yes lots of free places to visit in Shropshire and they're English Heritage sites. The area doesn't get the credit it deserves.

      So true Helen we really like Shropshire as an area, friendly people and so community minded, we have found some cracking free places coming soon, sorry to hear about Karl’s nephew must have been awful, the vets were so friendly and we were actually there for about 40 minutes chatting about vanlife, the nurse in red has a campervan and wants to live in it touring, small world anyway must go got your video to watch.. safe travels 🙏👍👊🚌🇬🇧

      @@wanderingbychoice hi Steve, that’s sounding more expensive. It’s always worried it our little van that if the casting on the boiler broke that would be that for hot water. I guess it’s the same in the house although that doesn’t bounce along pot holed roads.🤷‍♂️

    Leaks, never good news and not the easiest thing to track to the offending part. Was the price you quoted for replacement unit complete? Hope you get it sorted, and for much less than you're expecting to pay. Loved the architecture shots, especially the pub. That overhang is called an eavesdropper. People inside could hear the conversations on the street below, hence to eavesdrop. The other reason for it is to empty the gazunda into the middle of the street, pedestrians being able to stay out of the 'line of fire' by walking under the eavesdropper! We are still coming to terms with Chancer and Reggie never playing together again 😥 Starting work on the van tomorrow, should be finished in two weeks. Take care and safe travels.

      @@wanderingbychoiceNot an ideal situation without a pump and having to come up with loads of dosh to keep thunderbird II going, thats for sure. I was saying in a comment on a vanlife page how these motorhomes were never meant for full time van life and how when they were used as such, sooner or later they started to cost money. I was going to Santa pod weekend this easter, Steve but like a lot of events, its got cancelled. Good job really as I just got an 80 quid gas and lekky bill LOL. It will be a few weeks before I bimble again. I'm happy I was in your thoughts. Proper cheered me up! I'll make sure we do meet up!!! Much respect- Kenny
