It’s certainly very expensive and we are having second thoughts about going down in July.

So as long as we don’t drink (even non-alcoholic beverages), or smoke, or eat out, or eat in, or stay in a hotel, we’re doing ok 🤨

This is the life.

I was intending to go there this year but have now decided to leave my money elsewhere.
Certain places not motorhome friendly , M50 is rip off ireland.
My Daughter tried to do a friend a good turn by taking her horse to a new location through this gold digging turnstyle.
I booked her toal for her and paid the fee,but I did not account for the trailer she was towing,guess what ?
Penalty for not declaring trailer,my mistake.
Their loss as I will happily spend more during my two weeks touring Scotland and England than they took off me for my mistake.

Certainly has become more expensive since the Covid situation ……. But it’s become more expensive everywhere I suppose.

But the value in Spain will be all the more welcome when we get there.

Very true Jon , but greed is never a good way to negotiate .
