Van Build
We’ve now been living full-time in our self-built motorhome for over two years! On 14th October 2015, we packed up our tools after spending an evening working on our van’s kitchen and started driving away from our workshop along the A36 towards Salisbury, as we had been doing pretty much every day, only on this day we didn’t have a […]
After a couple of months of living without a draining rack and unable to find want we wanted we decided to spend a bit of time building the draining rack of our dreams!

We took our time getting everything about the build perfect and saving up a target amount of money before even thinking about setting off on […]
Over one weekend we turned £8 worth of pallets and a hand full of nails into a stunning cabinet to hold a Bang & Olufsen BeoMaster 2000 record player. Last November, after having lived in the van for a month, we came to a bit of a halt with the build. Things seemed to keep going wrong and the cold of winter was […]
