The story begins...

Our girls have been nagging daddy that they want to go camping! I say brilliant idea girls - we still have our tent!!! Daddy on the other hand is not so keen, we have camped a few times now, I have loved it but hubby has 'tolerated' it! - I think he has forgotten the fun times! Although maybe they are overshadowed by bad experiences with the weather! He does however agree that we must take the children at least once!

Wait! Then I have an idea! How about a caravan?! Not any old caravan but a vintage one!

A whole week later after searching tirelessly on ebay for the right one...I find it! ... A 1966 sprite 400.

We picked it up from Derbyshire from a lovely gentlemen who was very sad to see it go, so here begins our project of restoring ' him' thought it only fair it was a boys name! - we have three girls and the dog is a girl - hubby needs some support! So he is named Geoffrey after 1966 World Cup scorer Geoff Hurst! (Football has to get in there somewhere!)
