Margot

Evidently both creative and independent, having been told by fellow travellers that a red and white backboard is compulsory on her bike carrier, Margot spray painted her white picnic table with red stripes, providing a dual purpose and space saving solution to carrying a picnic table. Suspecting that her door locks may have been tampered with provokes a second trip to the hardware store resulting in an industrial strength chain and padlocks for night time cab door security. Clearly independent and not afraid to have a try at stuff that most of us 'girls' leave to our other halves, Margot argues that she is not brave. She admits that she is not daunted by the police and the never ending stories that abound in this community about the treatment of travellers but that there are those that she regards as TBA's. A term used in the boating world and short for 'to be avoided'. Neither does Margot have a feeling of being displaced. She regards L'Escargot as her home and the differing neighbourhoods in which she finds herself a definite positive! So content she is with her home, the only changes she might like are another metre in length and possibly a separate grill on the oven. A good choice made then, it seems and sticking to her guns appears to have paid off.

 

Margot finally comments that unlike the very social boating world, motorhomers tend to be rather more insular. Naturally this would mean more in her position than to those of us who travel as a couple.

 

We are sure that Margot will be an inspiration to many ladies and indeed gentlemen of a certain age who like us consider her to be brave. If not to take up motorhoming then some other adventure that you may have formerly for any number of reasons considered out of reach.

 

We wish Margot great travels and abundance of new friends as she continues on her journey.

 

Editors note: The day after this interview was conducted Margot took delivery of a new pet - well two infact. She now travels with two very pretty and very in love 'lovebirds'. Oh Margot - what about the city sightseeing?
