I am not sure Jeff will come... Starting to plan the van, man.
Vanwatch starts HERE! Current status -
Tyres OK Brakes - service needed. Gas - all OK, might upgrade to bigger gas bottles. Gas Fire - last years's repair still seems fine. Water heater - wiring checked, fine. Water - new inline electric Whale pump needed. Fridge - to be removed and taken to Southend for a heart-lung transplant (unless anyone knows how to vent a Waeco CAS-60 for caravan use). Shelves - useless internal cupboards removed, replaced with two large bunkbeds for guitars allowing me to bring up to 4 guitars bodhran and mandolin. Looks like shit but works. Van "hifi" - The old stereo out of the Volvo (see below) needs fitting to the van with a sub hiding somewhere. Bigger battery - needed to power hifi.... Stabiliser - Bulldog bought off ebay, arrival awaited Towcar - the Skoda with the dicky clutch has been replaced with a 7 series Volvo GLT, hence the stabiliser to allow planned higher cruising speeds. Towcar fuel tank - spare in garage awaiting fitting!
