Hi Robbie, was nice to speak with you, I'd like to see your van.. I'm at Glendullan Wed Thurs, Fri afternoons this week if you're on the go?
Today the van was at the builder merchants, to be fair I'm not a huge fan of safaris on a daily British driver, the rain and wind and snow come in because I always forget to latch them, then the frost between the window and seal means it won't latch... they are coming in handy for the house project though

Hi Robbie, I would like to see a picture, my email is
Ravenscraig2@aol.com
if you get a minute.
I had photos of the van taken and a sensible reserve price in my head, the house is bleeding me dry and the van could provide enough cash to finish the house. I had a good look around it too, and whilst it isn't the prettiest van on the planet I realised I would rather sleep in a half finished house with the van outside, rather than a nice house with no van. The van stays

Wise choice. Great van and you've already got some great memories attached to it. Keep it up.

Thanks.
Earlier in the house build I was living with my dad most nights but now I'm full time in the van, using the facilities in the house.
I've turned my sleeping habits all the way round so I no longer scrape my head on the top locker every morning, and being honest I am actually as comfortable as I've ever been, Amanda is coming with fresh bedding every so often and there's room to have a beer and watch a film after a day's graft.
Is there a neat solution for opening/closing the rear hatch from inside the van?
I was wondering if window buses have anything?
