SteveDSD's SWB Smiley dayvan/camper

[transit dave]

Really like your van, looks great

How many of you go away at a time??

[SteveDSD]

Cheers for that, the camera really makes it look better than I've done.

It's only ever me that goes away, no room on the bed for anyone else

Lol just wondered as we have a little boy and was considering trying to do something with mine .. do you use yours for surfing /cycling hols or just getting away??

[SteveDSD]

It's a getting away van, I'm far too lazy to do surfing or rock climbing. I just sit in my deckchair and eat Cherry Bakewells.

I'm sure with a bike rack and a roof rack there'd be more than enough space for proper adventure holidays, and loads of people do that kind of thing. A cool box with frozen milk and bacon in it is good for a weekend away, it keeps everything cool and the milk melts just enough to make cups of tea. The small portable camping stoves seem to be popular too if you don't want the hassle of plumbing in LPG.

Getting very close to finished, all the kit I need to camp is working, just some final tidy up and a little bit more cabling to do before it's truely complete (for now).

some good work gone into this well done mate

First outing for the new design, she performed fantastically. It was below freezing for the three nights I camped in Wales, but I was nice and warm in my sleeping bag.
This weekend will be the Peak district, a chance to test the electric hookup and my 400watt mains heater.
