Family life in a Camper Van. For us a skimboard table was a must-have, it would complete the ‘surf wagon’ look of the T5. They do look great, but is it really practical for a family? Our first table was purchased from eBay. The conversion company. We used had already planned black gloss cupboard doors for the kitchen by the time we reserved. So when we found a black skimboard it seemed perfect. I kept my eyes out for more online, although the. Fitting the bracket to the board – Marking Out. We are curren...

Family life in a Camper Van. First night in the Van. As you can imagine, as soon as. Had his hands on his new toy, he was off….surfing trips, van meets, walking trips, and stopovers. By December I was desperate to stay overnight in the camper and get to grips with how it differs from camping in a tent. It was very exciting, driving off with everything we needed in the same vehicle, this is definitely the ‘freedom’ that camper-vanners crave, knowing that at any moment, you can jump in the camp...The cooki...

Family life in a Camper Van. Down to Normandy – Tour de France pt.2. After trying out our hob toaster – which received mixed reviews from us – we set off down to Normandy and Mont Saint-Michel.

It was promised to be possible with a metal contraption. Pain avec jambon et fromage. The Mont Saint-Michel Aire. By 930am, and...

Friend, fellow surfer and van enthusiast, Alan, has a van conversion business based in Hinderwell ( www.vanlife.co.uk. So naturally we went to have a chat with him about the van plans. The van is hubby’s, so he spent the next few months making plans with Alan as to the budget, interior, fixtures and fittings with me dutifully making suggestions along the way! Notif...

Family life in a Camper Van. Has been over by the coast, providing a cosy refuge for tired surfers. We’ll probably be off away in the van again this week, but I won’t be going in the sea – I’d love to be cool enough to surf, but I’m too scared of: 1. cold water and 2. unknown, alive things lurking about my feet! I’ll leave that to the husband and be on book-reading and tea-drinking duty instead. Love, our Dub x. Us and Our Dub. June 28, 2014. Our Van Essentials (Current Thinking). Skimboard Table →.

It was so beautiful, and we were all very excited to get into the refreshing sea (. Everyone was setting up camp here, so we followed suit. During our trip, w...

Family life in a Camper Van. Blustery Day Trip to Scarborough. A look around our extra bedroom. The kettle was duly put on the gas and was soon whistling away. It is important that the gas is turned off at source (usually the bottle) when the camper is not in use or you are going to bed, so it needs to be easily accessible. A Carbon Monoxide alarm is also a must. Coffee in hand we took our first proper look at. Love, our Dub x. June 24, 2014. First night in the Van. Leave a Reply Cancel reply. Our Van Es...

Family life in a Camper Van. Trip to the Peak District (…and not so rock and roll in pregnancy). Winter came and went, and spring followed just as quickly. With us both being so busy at work, time is flying by. Will be six in the summer, and there’s only fifteen weeks now before baba #2 arrives….good grief! We had to slow things down a bit, so for our anniversary we booked a visit to Chatsworth House in Derbyshire and planned a camper trip around that. For our can’t-do-withouts), and.
