a fairground life

So we are in the house. About time since we have been paying a mortgage for 18 months! Anyway I think I'm going to like it, my wife is not so sure. She says she feels like she is staying in a hotel. I told her, "if so then the room service is crap!" The bit that is hard is the isolation, I mean if you walk out at the yard there is always someone about. Anyway now we need a new van, for me. Something just to get me from A to B. The old LDV is beyond economical repair. I'm off to the auctions this week, I fancy a Berlingo. Its a bit smaller than the LDV but it will do for me and park better in the drive. It will need to be cheap with the current financial crisis gripping the world. I said to Mrs Showman, "you know we moved into the house just in time, its nice to have lived in it before we lose it."

Well, the house is a big step. I hope it works out for you. My father was a traveller who settled down and went into another line of business. I never travelled myself, and I understand you're not leaving the business, but anyway I'll pass along what my dad used to say: Financially, settling down was the best move he ever made. Emotionally, it ruined him!
