Wow. Such a long time since I blogged. The news:
I have fitted the leisure battery:

The 240v hookup is working now, too.
I have started a course at the local college on vehicle body repair. It is cool, I have taken in my spare sliding door to be sorted out. Pics and story to come!
I am running the van through the winter... Brr! Still, at least I got a Propex now, so heat will be here shortly!
Enjoy!
My son Joseph with my Minolta Dimage X20
Got a lot done!
The van is all welded now, thanks to Shaggy ;-) I have run round with some white smoothrite just to make it all the same colour, cover up the welds and keep the rust away.
I have recovered the cushions, now just got to do the curtains!
Bugjam was a blast this year - only went for the Saturday, but went in the van anyway.
Also bought a new fridge so will be selling the old one now.
Other plans include getting or making a buddy seat to go behind the driver to house the electrics and camping stuff etc.
Wow. Loads of panels have arrived in a big box from Schofields. Half of them, I don't need so they will have to go back. But the ones I need plus some more will be on the van by Wednesday.
It's all happening so fast. Cool!
Also, saw some nice material for the curtains and bed today. More tomorrow.
Hello you. Tidied up the site today. Removed the help page as I have all the answers I need now, ta.
Added a humour section to dump my VW related funnies.
Updated the todo list.
Thanks!
Got the van out of hibernation today. She ran 4th turn of the key. After 7 months sat in a garage. She drove as well as the day I left her - no locked brakes, no leaks... Lovely.
Added a section on packing away a cover today. A bit silly but maybe useful to someone!!
Project Section Added!!!!!!
Dummies guide to leisure battery hookup started. Pics and bits up NOW!!!
