Van update

Hello again,

I've been busy over the last week as the van is going for it's first proper trip next weekend. I've started building our pull out bed, and this will be complete within the next few days.

I have wired in a solar panel, which I guess is not entirely necessary as the split charge will almost certainly give me enough power for a couple of days. I just fancied it, and thought it would be interesting for the children. It's a very simple thing to fit, the guide on here should see you right.

I bought a big spray bottle from a garden centre as I've seen them mentioned here, it's the type used for weeds etc I guess.  I can pump it up and get a nice spray or quick jet of water from it and I can take that and the sink bowel out of the van with ease.

I also made 2 clipboards out of old pallet wood and drilled some holes in a block of wood to hold pencils (I need to round the edges off!) inside their bunks


My photos are too big! I'll be back ...
