6 years ago to the day, I had my first drive in an Early Bay ... it was a long first drive, 250 miles to be precise [emoji3] back from Exeter airport, I couldn’t even find reverse gear to get out of the parking space [emoji1787].

Anyway 6 hours later, almost hyperthermic and £100 lighter (man she was running rich) we finally got her home.

It’s the best decision we’ve ever made [emoji106]

M.O.T this Friday.

Fingers crossed for an early lockdown lift because we are totally ready.

Stay safe everyone

Happy anniversary!
What started as a tidy looking bus looks like an even tidier and happier bus 6 years on 😎

Thanks guys [emoji3]

@gvee - it was love at first sight although it was clear she’d been unloved for sometime.

@mike202 - Fingers crossed Mike, all holidays this year for us will be in Winnie, great news for Frankie too [emoji190]
