We picked Wike up around 2pm in the afternoon. This was a day earlier than we had planned but when the garage called and said she was ready, did we want her today, we couldn’t say no. As we were both on leave for the next 10 days we decided to head straight off. Having stopped at home to pack everything we thought we would need, which took a lot longer than we had initially planned, we headed off to our first night in the van. We had booked into The Barn at New Milton in the New Forest. This pub was really great, we were running late and knew the kitchen shut at 9pm so we called them and placed our food order over the phone. When we arrived we parked in the field and headed to the restaurant where our food was ready for us. After a very quiet nights sleep we returned to the restaurant for a full English breakfast to set us up for the day.
