Malibu Molly

A few changes to the plan, such as it was. Friday we will stop off at Snape Maltings where he been quite a few times as Claire had a friend's birthday coming up. There are loads of craft shops there. We'll park up and I'll get the Nikon out to take a few photos, or maybe the Canon 1100D.   Snape Maltings last time we were there... To save a few quid we'll take a packed lunch and I can turn the gas on to make coffee etc.  The hob can cool as we have a walk around. Then we'll go to to the Waterpump CL and settle in for the night.  It would be nice to have a walk to the pub for a drink though... How much walking about we do is dependent on the weather! Saturday the plan is to drive over to Aldeburgh and see what the parking situation is like. There seems to be one car park that can accommodate a 6m van. Another has a limit of 5.5m!  There is some free parking further down the road the we could look at. Then maybe a short drive up to Southwold?  Who knows at th...

The van has lots of storage under the bed.... We seem to have filled it ll up and we are going for a weekend! Some of the storage boxes contain stuff that is for the van and for us when we go walking etc.  When we go away in the summer we will have to find room for the chairs, and they are quite big even when packed away. Plus a lot more clothes to last three weeks away! The Taylor Made screen cover is in the black bag on the bottom under the floor.  It's massive! When in the bag it's easy 5ft tall.  I managed to fod it in half and it is still a pain the the ass!

With Storm Herminia hanging about into this week  we cancelled the pub stop at Beachy Head. Instead the weather looks better for the weekend and so we are going to pay another visit to our favourite CL near Woodbridge at Waterpump.  Suffolk on the map is inside the red dotted borders.  I emailed Sarah to book a couple nights and will confirm in the week. It is all weather dependent. There are a few places I'd like to go to up there.  Maybe Aldeburgh where I have never been. There's some free parking along the road by the sea. I have set a waypoint on the TomTom to navigate there. It should be a short walk up to the town. It seems the only place to park as both the nearby car parks seem to have a vehicle size limit. It's day parking only that suits us. Of course there's also Walberswick. We have been there before. There's a large parking area there that has a daily charge. As well as those two,  there's Southwold. We have been before and parked up in the moho spa...
