Mondays... A day that I complete my worldly chores and get the shopping done.

Whilst out running an errand I happened upon a man selling a van... A caravan!

With the sale of my Motorbike this week, I had the money burning a hole in my pocket. :naughty

Here she is... :D

Looks just the sort of "Trailer" that "Travellers" like to borrow without asking.

It does look a nice one though I must admit, like the double axle look.

Yes, I'll be keeping it on tight lock down!

Yeah, I've always liked the twin axle too... My last one was a single, so I'm pleased with this! :D

I reckon you could string up 12 hammocks in there.:thumbs


Nice one Jay it definitely makes for a more comfortable camp especially with kids (so you can now take the gate Gimp (Banshee)).

We're gonna go out on a test night the next time Freddy is here! (two weeks from now.)

Spent most of the day under the van trying to fit Motor Movers to the wheels!

That's a fun job... I have done it 3 times now on 2 caravans. But it's so worth it for the ease of moving the van.... It's a bit like electric windows on a car, you don't NEED them, but boy is it hard to live without it once you have had them.

We have been to a few sites where the view at the rear of the pitch has been better than the view to the front, looking out at other vans, so often now, we use the motor mover to drive the van in forward to the pitch, and can look out the window at a much nicer view... only problem the ferrets at the rear of the van are now complaining that they have lost the view.:lol
