Thanks Nigel
It was nice to have our little text chat the other day
So Oxonphil is coming over on Sunday to do my wiring on the trailer
I better get this cave cleaned as its disgraceful
and it's upsetting me as I has a mess!
NOTE TO SELF
wile cleaning out cave look for new trailer cover as I can't find it anywhere in the house
If I've left it in the cave it's going to be completely covered in dust GGGGGGRRRRRRRR
Laters

So after phill had worked him magic with the lights
It was time to protect the sides of the trailer so I was going to line the inside with stuff
And this is what I decided on
It's shinny black plastic sheets around 6mm thick and very very light in weight
I got 10mm rubber Matt to make the flooring in the trailer ( stop stuff sliding around when getting towed.
When one of ya best mates if a pro at flooring ...... You ask him to do if for you !
Cheers Moody it looks the bee's knee's
What took Brian a few min's to do would have taken me all evening and would not of looked half as good as it does now :
I'd also like to thank Scott for donating some awesome looking reflectors .... They look the part and again I'm over whelmed by people's kindness
Thanks Scott
So then it was time to fit the cover eeeeeeeeeeekkkkk
Now I can't take any credit for this cover as it came with the trailer when I purchased it off Billy
One thing I can say is I'm leaving it on there for a while to allow it to stretch .... There are x3 more holing clips that I steel need rut but the cover need to stretch first .
.......
I did a little wedding fair the other day too ..... I'm enjoying the weddings as its fun and I get to cruz in my bus ...and put smiles on people's faces
Over. And out

Hi All
well tomorrow their's is a future bride come around to see if she wants Gerry for her special day .... I guess to check out if his good enough
so if the weathers nice tomorrow I guess it would be rude not to go for a cruze after the couple have been around
who knows ..... I may even get a photo ..... may even hook up the Trailer and give him a test run too
OOOOOO so much to choose from .... so much to do

Have you considered renting the trailer out for the Bridesmaids?
It would make a great photo [emoji2]
