Hi all, just wanted to say hello.  I posted this on the Solo website yesterday, but as I read both forums I thought I would say hi here as wellsmile

I have been following the Forum for quite a long time now, but I was waiting until I actually knew when I would be getting a van before I joined and this was looking like it would be a number of years.  At the Sandown Leisurefest last October I met the Leylands and we talked of my dream of travelling with my 4WD and van.  Mal told me to just pack up and go, dont worry about the money it would sort itself out (easy said!!). Ten days later my workplace called for interest in voluntary redundancy packages.  So it was hello voluntary redundancy, goodbye work and hello to my new toys the beast (Kia Sorento) and the beauty (Regal Deluxe Compact Tourer, the whole 12 feet of her!!)  OK, she is a little van but she does have ducted reverse cycle air conditioning.  Together will do great things; i.e. travel all over the countryside.  I hope we meet up sometime.

Hi Esmeralda, welcome to the Forum - as my Dad would say, don't have something that you can't handle by yourself, and although you say your van is only small, it sounds like it will be just right for you, so happy travelling and exploring.

Pete & June
