No further on in terms of deciding whether to head out the door North, South, East or West, although most likely not North in the first instance ! but I have been slowly pulling together things. As a born worrier, I’ve been confirming that my travel insurance gives me cover for the touring and camping (it does for up to a 90 day trip !) and have been getting some jabs up to date. Latest jab for for TBE (Tick-borne Encephalitis) not a big issue in UK, but it is in mainland Europe, especially Scandinavia where I spend a lot of time. While I’m at it I’m ordering a handy little tick remover as well, I’ve had experience in the past of pulling the little b****ers out !
