Just loaded the new camper for the first time. Fits well, and is much lighter than the ol freeway. Total cost so far is less than $3000, not inc labour, as I designed and built it myself.Its amazing what you can do with an inverter welder and simple power tools. Will post some inside pics soon.

Now trying to get everything done before I have to be out of he house and living in the new rig in 4 weeks. Not that a lot really needs to be done but I'd rather make any changes and mods now before I'm living in there permanently. Pretty big for one bloke and his dog, but it's a nice bit of luxury. If I'm going t...

Over the weekend had a look at a M/H - Mercedes Sprinter - took our mechanic to look at it - he said looked good - so I had until yesterday to make up my mind. I don't know how many times I went to pick up the phone to say yay or nay but in the end it was a yay. So I will pick it up next week. All the butterflies, appr...

As strange as it may sound, rather than just pack up and go around Oz, we thought it would be a good idea to see if we actually could live in the van definitely,, so we are into a sort of 3 month test at my sisters place to see what needs doing before we take off in October. We have had the van for two years now and b...
