Time to go

[The laird]

After a fantastic time in france this year when we came back we decided at hereford we would start looking for another van so our hymer 572 van is going to a new home,this van has been a great servant to us
So we start a new chapter next week in our motorhome career

Many happy memories still to make in the new van
May the miles bring you smiles

Gordon, how does the new Rapido you're getting suit you over the Hymer?

Yesterday I sold my Autocruise Stargazer, which I have owned for years. I have not yet decided what to buy next ... probably something smaller because age is taking its toll on my abilities to climb in and out of larger vans.
I might convert a panel van for something to keep me busy ... built one in early 1970's which served well for a few years and was quite advanced for its time, with running water (hot and cold), fridge, toilet and shower, built in water tank and waste water tank, Solar water heater panel (home made) on the roof. I know I can build higher quality than many of the new ones I have looked at in the local sellers.
I'll let you know what I do and if I decide to build, I will make some videos of the project, in case that is useful to others.
