Shake, rattle and roll ...

Hermie set off on his maiden voyage 'around the block' last weekend.
My father-in-law and master in all things caravan like came over and imparted years of advice to get us and Hermie on the road.
 
There was a lot of studying, fiddling and wiggling .

Deep breaths and tight squeezes.
 
Then he was all set and ready to go. The kids and I stood on the grass verge waving them off on their 3 mile round trip like loons!?!?
 
And as they set off down the road all I could hear was retro Pyrex plates, tea-spoons in enamel pots, tealight votives, hand cream, wooden handled loofahs, toaster, and soft furnishing rattling and clanging with every slight bump in the road making heads turn at all the noise.
