DRIVING TO THE ARCTIC CIRCLE! (WINTER VAN LIFE)
It's like they have a death wish for themselves and the kids. They have absolutely no thoughts fir the people around them who's lives would be put on hold if something went terribly wrong.
- Nice Yoto ad to start us off. Undeclared of course. I've seen nothing of King Jace's supposed obsession with stories. Sugar yes, stories no.
- Another speech of how hard daily vlogging is. Lazy is worried about what people will say about the MacBooks but then says she couldn't care what they say. She was just going to get Esme one for Christmas but it was too expensive. She knew she would be jealous of Isla if she didn't get a bike. Isla got a MacBook because she's an older girl, Lazy didn't want her left out and she needs it for home school.
- Set off late as usual. 2 hours late. They're travelling to Folkestone for the Eurostar to France. They booked a flexi ticket but it didn't say that on the ticket. Lazy was more worried about why Flakes aren't sold as doubles like Twix. She is concerned about the Maxtrax stuck onto the side of the van with magnets.
- They put their destination in the title of the vlog but still tease the ifam about where they're going in the vlog
.
- Lazy going on about her bucket list but no thought to what her chuldren may want. "Everyone has millions of layers" aka max two layers each. Creepstopher thinks the two diesel heaters will save them in minus double figures. "We're fully prepared for this trip" - famous last words. Well at least Lazy has her own built in blubber.
- The weather is fine until April and if not they have the four sledges in the back of the van to get them home. Then just a quick swim across the ocean to get home.
- The Inghams arrive at a service station near the Dartford Bridge/Crossing. World traveller Lazy has no idea what it's called. They waste money on Costa because Starbucks tastes better. Priorities. Why does it matter where they get drinks anyway? They only have one mouthful each by the time they've shared the communal Berry Cooler. Lazy Ramsay approves of the taste. Poor Isabelle looks like she's just been dragged out of bed and thrown in the van. To be far that's probably what did happen.
- Creepstopher admits to having had next to no sleep. I have no idea how he can stay up late night after night like this and think it's in any way healthy. They go on a van trip and forget to buy drinking water. How many have they done now? The irony of Lazy mocking the "French schoolchuldren trips" is she is depriving her chuldren of such opportunities. They might think that dragging the kids around on the Great European Tour of Lakes is a great idea but they're learning nothing from it. Those French chuldren are combining what they learn in the classroom with actual real world experience. What are the Ingham girls learning? Rien!!
- Creepstopher thinks he's so bonkers and unpredictable for heading over to Europe again. Unhinged is the word I would choose. They've been so busy. He reminisces about going on the fairly new Eurostar shuttle in 1996. It's cool that the technology has not changed in that time.
- The Inghams drive off the train. King Jace and Mila play a magnetic fishing game whilst Lazy sings the 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 song to them. They're cosy. They drove half an hourish and are now in Belgium aka "Bel Jummy Jummy".
- Lazy wishes she'd bought a book for herself. Jace is reminded to have patience. She's usually too busy playing with chuldren to read. Poor poor wife. There are people hanging out outside the van talking so Lazy's stress levels are at a 4.
- Time to reveal where they're going. They're making their way on the journey of an absolute lifetime to the Arctic Circle. They have an epic plan on the way up. They will have the best time and Lazy is so excited to experience it with her family. She was telling Creepstopher that she doesn't travel to escape life; she travels so life doesn't escape her. You tell yourself that love. They're going to have 'Olli - One life, live it' stickers made so they can stick them everywhere.
- There has been a lot of preparation and it has been in the pipeline for a lot of months. The van has had a lot of modifications done to it. They have all they need and more. If anything goes wrong they will turn back and go home. Yeah great plan if they're stuck neck deep in snow.
Bon Voyage you cunt. Hopefully one day 'Bon voyage, enjoy your vacation to Seagoville Mr Ingham'.
