We finished putting our things in Frieda, closed up the house for a few months, and hit the road about midday. After a couple of months at home, it felt good to be back on the road.
We’ve planned a leisurely trip north, so today our destination was Oxford, only an hour away. After stopping in a picnic area for lunch, we arrived at the Oxford club.

The grass was a bit long in the paddock, but not too wet so we decided to park up and set up the awning. It’s been a while, and we had to relearn a few things, but we got there after close to an hour. How some people claim they can do it single handed in 20 minutes is a mystery! The awning came into its own later, when after a walk into town and a drink at the club we were able to sit out in spite of a cool wind.

Next morning I lay awake from 6 onwards, listening to the wind gusts getting stronger. My 3 weather apps all gave different forecasts, but all suggested the wind was going to get increasingly stronger during the day. By 7.30a.m. I had woken Graham, and the awning was down and everything was packed away by 8a.m! We drove Frieda around the corner to shelter behind the bowling club and went back to bed with a cup of tea.
