Your bus did look well cool today, I was most jealous!

All those windows looked uber cool on the lawns bud, so pleased you managed to get it to the lawns.

Mate, your van rocked!! A testament to the hard work you have put into it.
Your kids certainly loved it!!

Cheers for the kind words peep really means alot..


Anyway i filled the old girl right up with rubbish guttering ect ect and went down the tip the new seats are a tad dirty now

First time since CTTP that i've done anything to her..

Just gave the oil a change, routed all the pipework and connected up the external cooler and filter, fitted the thermostatic inline switch for the electric cooling fan and fitted the oil temp switch....

And thats all i have had to do ..
On the plus side it's good knowing that when i come home from work i'm not gonna be rushing to get outside, i can just sit and chill with the family or pi$$ around with kids in the garden
