well campertess i think you have done a great job so far

why thankyou

i'm chuffed
and its done my confidence the world of good cos i didnt think i could do this.....
i thought my mate kev would have been doing the majority of the work but he hasnt.
i have !
i mean he did the basic framework for me cos i'm crap with angles ....but the rest i have done myself,singlehandedly working through the night whilst the babies in bed.

walkabout baby monitors are a wonderful invention ya know

[Campertess]

also.....
its made me realise somthing.

projects are often more daunting on paper/in the planning,that they are to actually do.
you kno what this means do you ?


this winter ,after a full on travelling summer .
I AM GOING TO ATTEMPT TO DO The TESSIE bus MYSELF !!!!!
I've tried to make myself sell her but i just cant do it!!!
she's my baby n has been for tooooo long
i cant just give up on her now.
My new bus is very usuable for me n the kids yes...
but it dosnt tickle my pink like my mk 1 does.

if i f..k it up,well at least i tryed.
I have a pop top roof coming
well awaiting collection (thankyou nice man with pretty green mk1 - I will be cooming oop North very soon to see you)

I'm glad my man left home because whilst he was here i kinda left things like this to him,mans work like.....
no its not,anybody can do ANYTHING if you try hard enough,this project proves that.

*jo is a happy happy proud little bunny right now *

Thanks guys for all your support n positivity ..
