If anyone is heading to greece could you look out for my brain on your travels as i seem to have left it there when i came home ....every decision ive made since then has been a nightmare

What's your new van? I'd want a continental van or a newer British van for insulation our traveling freinds know something about keeping warm!

Cheers James

Tam. it's a dam shame you have'nt gone a film crew following you around. I think you could run for several series & be load's more interesting than some rubbish on tv.

Bit of a one foot in the grave moment. Good job he wasn't still sat it in.

It looks ok on the photos to be fair.

Like Lenny says. It's worth that money for the bit.

Well i now have 2 caravans but nowhere to put the one ive just bought until i get shot of the other one ...ive 2 people saying theyre coming to view it tonight but will see. I often ask myself how i get myself in to these situations

If you think that is bad try having two 6.36m long camper vans 'tandem style' on your drive, or a a camper and 3 Smart cars ... They could've made a new series of 'Butterflies' at our place with all the vehicle shuffling!!!

Aye no end of entertainment .

Im just heading off to collect caravan number 2 ...so there will be 1 caravan in the drive aswell as the merc , 1 caravan on the street outside , 2 cars on the street and Toby until tomorrow when he gets picked up very embarrassing but i have no option really. Had a few enquiries about the caravan but no viewers yet. Ill give it till the weekend then ill take all the appliances out of it and scrap the shell i think.

Would prefer someone to buy it whole though.


Mums remarkably relaxed about the whole thing ....its bothering me more than her ....shes too busy eating sweeties

Dont tell her i posted that pic

[Just smiffy]

Nice little CL you got there tam….. got to be worth £15 a night..

 

[Northernraider]

Well it has been a long yet eventful day im knackered physically and mentally but new caravan collected and in the drive ...about 40 enquiries for the cheap one ...guy arrived 5 minutes after i got home with number 2 ...and he paid me £550 for the old one so that was a result in the end. ...

That wee traveller guy was right when he gave me a card with st patrick on it and said it would bring me luck.

Now im off to bed as ill have to get up at the break of dawn to empty and clean Toby before his new owner arrives at 11am to collect him .

 

[Northernraider]

So heres a few pics of my new hoose much better and lots of storage.
Just about to move all my stuff in

 

[Shandyman]

[Figaro]

The first caravan decor was much too pink, you did well getting rid of it
