A COUPLE sold everything they own to travel the UK in a motorhome - with their dogs in tow. Stuart Scattergood, 36, and his husband, Andrew, 57, gave up their home and the pub they ran, got rid of their cars, furniture and over 17 bags of clothes. They bought a £10,000 motorhome and have been on the road for the last two years - with their pooches, a 15-year-old Shih Tzu called Pixie, Soda, a 15-year-old Labrador collie cross and Luna, a six-year-old Shih Tzu Chihuahua cross.
The two ran the Belle Vue Pub near Scarborough , North Yorkshire, for four years before Andrew jokingly suggested they should buy a motorhome. But his joke soon became a reality and both decided they'd done enough with the boozer - turning it from "not being very good" to award-winning. The couple - who rented the pub from a landlord - handed in their six-month notice and began looking for a new transportable home.

They also donated 17 bags of clothes to charity to free up some much-needed space in their motorhome.
