    Is it too early ?

    I have every intention of going. Last time was 2004 when the infamous Rusty Bay tent blew away. some stoopid peeps were more interested in the drinking and never used the tie down straps. Madmaverick, Lady of the Lake, Bootscooter & I were never invited to put that tent back up again :lol:

    New Interior

    he told me £1100 fitted but I was only talking of the unites etc. He will build to your spec if you want for the same price or so I believe. Prices are on his website. If no one beats VM's price by a considerable margin then I'll be going to him for a new interior. I have an LPG tank under my...

    Hmmm!! Would you?

    he's not a Kombidriver & hindsight is wonderful, I let him drive it, made sure everything was ok. fraught with the problems that arose, he's been a wee bit naughty but not intentionally. He has offered to pay for what's missing & repairs of the bunk canvas etc. next year, he's sleeping in a...
