    Heating Van over Winter

    IMHO my 'Millie' is always left well ventilated after I have winterise/decommissioned her each autumn/winter, the fridge door is left well open as is the lid of the loo. The drains from the sinks and shower are all treated with CilitBang and then flushed out with a strong bleach solution and the...

    Whats occurring

    And that is where and why I am a tad disillusioned and in no way shape or form is this intended as a criticism of Phil and his mod. team, but on here I have seen several examples over recent months of people who are blatantly promoting their Youtube videos when patently the level of conversion...

    Finshed our conversion

    Personally speaking, we find the 2 big clubs to be quantum miles apart when it comes to their respective CS & CL sites with, for us, the CL sites of the C&MC being so very much better and less crowded! Neither of us are into children, as such we found the C&CC to be overtly child friendly, their...

    Finshed our conversion

    I have been (by choice) a member of the C&MC for quite some time, and when it came to the tick box on the application form for the type and make of motorhome/campervan, I left it blank. When they came back to me about the fact that I hadn't answered the relevant questions I said that I hadn't...

    VW Crafter MWB Build

    I tried Sika but didn't enjoy the experience so I then started to and continue to use Stixall. The singularly most important thing when using any of these amazing adhesives is to make absolutely certain the surfaces being stuck are thoroughly cleaned with a suitable solvent. As for cutting the...

    Help needed fitting solar panels

    In this situation, I would take my van to a very trusted specialist installer such as wildebus. The reason being that what he doesn't know about electrics and their installation isn't worth knowing about!

    Help needed fitting solar panels

    Graham I am an old fart as well and include in my health problems both heart & lung problems which are supposed to stop me lifting heavy objects. Believe me, even quite large solar panels are not very heavy and I found them to be quite easy to lift and move around. What type of van are you...

    Travelling the continent

    Suitably set up Phil, there would be no French, German or whatever charges as you would be hooking up directly to a satellite, well that is how it was when we were living there. Gaud it's warm in Lincolnshire today! Phil

    Travelling the continent

    Oh Phil, I know only too well how the infernal internet, or rather the lack of in the UK, causes so many people so many problems but for us it is sheer bliss as we can sit around enjoying the flora and fauna and the twittering of the birds without the blessed mobile phone ruining the peace and...

    Geeeees the prices being asked for 2nd hand campervans!

    I nearly fell of my stool the other day when someone we know and who is looking for a LWB Master conversion offered me a figure for my 'Millie' which was almost £8k higher than I have her insured for on an agreed valuation! If I was healthy enough to undertake another build I would have bitten...

    Geeeees the prices being asked for 2nd hand campervans!

    No doubt as many of us have done over the years, I am quite frankly disgustingly gob smacked at the quality, or rather the appallingly low rent quality of so many professional conversions! OK they might all look excellent on the top side, however lift up an edge of material and peep underneath...

    Geeeees the prices being asked for 2nd hand campervans!

    As I have 2 friends as well as a relative who are looking to buy a panel van converted van I have been looking at Autotrader, Gumtree and Ebay and am utterly gobsmacked at the prices being asked for complete and utter junk! It might be the current pandemic, surge induced marketplace, but my...

    Easy to fit, additional child bed in the cab

    Yes I knew about the hammock, in fact I have designed several layouts for other people with just such a system, but hadn't seen a rigid bed making use of the van seat bolsters before.

    Easy to fit, additional child bed in the cab

    On one of the FaceBook groups I follow, there has been a topic about having an additional bed in the cab area for a smaller person and this idea was put up from someone who says it is easy, quick and inexpensive to build/install and that their child loves sleeping in it.

    Accessing raspberry pi with no wifi

    Or you could turn the darned lot off and enjoy the sounds of the birds and bees. Me and my most beloved travel both far and wide throughout the UK and hardly ever turn on the damnable mobile phone and never turn on a TV as we don't have one and as for the radio, it is turned on, on Radio 4...
