Checking on Priscilla

Monday 3^rd March 2014

Jane went back to work today so she dropped us off up the hill to get Priscilla (as it was raining). We drove into Torroella de Montgri to Caravaning de Montgri and they checked Priscilla’s windscreen wash which turned out to be a broken motor. They then looked at the gas hot water system which turned out to be fine-it was us being cautious as when we used the water heater on gas the first time, when no mains available, there was a funny electrical burning smell-it was just because it hadn’t been used for ages. The bill only came to E42 which Dolphin are going to reimburse us for as Priscilla is under warranty. We also got the hazard board for on the back of the bikes. We then parked in the town and had a walk around. We had Xuichu’s (the best custard doughnuts ever that I used to eat every day when I lived here!) It was market day so stocked up on fruit & veg. We then went into “Orange” (mobile phone Company) and got a Spanish sim card so we now have a mobile number for emergencies. Called into a huge supermarket called Carrefour and picked up groceries as I had offered to cook the meal tonight for us, Jane & Laura. Spent a lovely evening and enjoyed a great meal (upstairs in their apartment as Laura is suffering with her back) of Pear and Havarti cheese with Spanish Jambon-garlic chicken with roast pots & veg followed up a lemon tart made by Jess.
