Hubby took a liking to your tropical lights when we met you at Tenby - unfortunately he’s been unable to source.

They are from The Range and they have had them in for the last two summers so he might be able to get some next year. Worth checking on their web site though They also had palm tree fairy lights reduced at John Lewis so they might be an alternative...

What have you got behind the VanEssa bags there? Is that a brandrup one? I didnt know there was one for that section.

 

[sapto]

Child seat and normal T12-T13 cable (ip44), so the old cable reel can go out and make some space for the chair.

Fairy lights, £6 from Sainsbury’s

 

[BayCatOne]

Went to the dealer and picked up a VW Connect data plug. Didn’t really buy it as it’s free

 

[Drpps]

Quechua base seconds with inner tent from an auction site. Went to a surf lifesaving event in the summer and the beach was packed with them as changing room bases. I know they are well respected as a quick drive-away awning alternative (we have a Galli 2 for longer summer breaks) and they were standing up to the Hooley that was blowing on the beach! Perfect size for bikes plus the loo. Just a shame they aren't available new still.

Chipex Blackberry touch up kit for the bubble on my roof edge...

 

[Jason wallace]

Now sat in the middle of the living room stinking the house out....my winter boots have arrived.

4 x Continental WinterContact 850 p 235/55 R17 103 V

Then look huge when not on the van, picking up the powder coated steels next week and once the temp drops a wee bit more i'll get them fitted.

Just need to sell on the old (new) tyres 4 x Continental VanContact 200 215/60 R17 that came of the steels.

Apparently they will be sold again next year by decathalon. I think that the rumour is they will be red.
Very useful piece of kit.

I picked up a Kampa Cuboid whilst at the shop meet after a lot of recommendations at various meets by others.
https://vwcaliforniaclub.com/shop/product/kampa-cuboid-compact-fan-heater-cooling-fan

Initial impressions are very good indeed, puts out some good heat, has a tip switch in case its knocked over and fan too. Feels more instant in the heat dept than similarly powered oil filled radiator. I think I may do a video for the club channel on this.

Ah Gillian, you get away with so much I wouldn't dare as I know him indoors would object. Go girl!

New windsock for us.
We may look into purchasing another Hook up adapter for Portugal as some of their campsites have 2 pin sockets. When we went back to reception with our hook up predicament, no problem they lent us a Portugal type adapter and asked for a 25euro refundable deposit. Brilliant.

Fitted protective covers to both tables.
