    Thanks Rob. Mrs getting involved you must be joking , I came home straight from work yesterday , made myself a cup of tea and took it out to work on the van , came in at 9 o’clock ,she had ,had her food , naff all made for me , a pile of washing up too do ( which I normally do )
    Happy days ehh, by the time I made my supper had an shower and made my packed lunch for work the next day it was gone half ten .

    She has no interest , just moans that I spend too much time on the van blah blah , can’t even bring me out a cup of tea while I’m on the van , I work a minimum of 50 hrs a week ,spend all my free time either hobbling or working on the van , I don’t do it because I enjoy it , I’m doing it for them ,for those memories spent away in the van and the fun days out , the way it’s going I’ll happliy drive off into the sunset on my own ! Rant over ( just had another bust up ) how I don’t measure up to how other dads are with the family’s of her amazing friends ffs!
    Mate that’s a screwer. My missus loves the van. And she helped!!

      Better not go there mate .... mine has decided to review & moderate my content. I read with envy all those 'families' that develop their van.... kids get involved, the wife ambitiously gets a cast-off sewing machine (refurbs it) & takes on the biggest seamstress job ever tackled and does a cracking job with plans to better it next year!

          Yep, that's when "YOUR F'in VAN", becomes "our day-van" , but the griping will just become more specific - comfort, temperature, colours, smells - expect the hole to just vary in depth!

          • Not much too show for my efforts this week , 90% of the carpeting done , I can see me re-doing some of it in the near future






            How do you secure the floor to the van ?
            The plan is to cover the floor before I bolt the R’n’R bed in , but as you can see the floor is in three pieces and needs to be level before I cover the floor .

            • That's getting there. Just have carpet held by mushroom bolts on ours. The floor in the blue one appears to be stuck down.

                I tigers sealed bits of batten running with the grooves in the floor and then screwed the ply floor to them


                It’s all shits and giggles until someone giggles and shits.

                  • Flooring fitted today , all that’s needed is to sort the step and the plastic trim by the rear door , I’m fairly happy with the results and the Mrs likes the bling lol


                    I tried to add a video as the picture doesn’t do it justice ,it doesn’t show the glitter effect given off by the interior lighting .
