Nice looking panel van: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Commer/123928119559?hash=item1cdab10907:g:qMgAAOSwJt9dlvfv

How are other campers in their modern motorhomes responding to seeing Gladys all that way from home? Incidentally, that Renault next to you appears to be levitating!

Good luck and have a great trip. Note to self - must get round to finishing my trilogy 'A Wanderer in Europe'!

That's very shiny rust!

Bertie lives again! Many thanks to Paul for pointing me in the right direction. I knew the relay was fine as it also serves the injectors which I knew were working, so I traced the wire from the relay to the connector where it joins the fuse box. A little wiggle and it came alive. It was...

I'll have a go at cleaning the relay contacts tomorrow. I knew I would get more help here than anywhere else! If I fix it, I shall get the suspension lowered and paint the wheels.

Yes, I considered that. There are two identical relays, one for the pump and one for the ignition circuit, so I swapped them, but it made no difference. However, I think you might be onto something.

I knew I was missing something!

No, this is a spare pump and it works perfectly if I connect it directly to an independent live feed.

I have a strange issue with the petrol pump on Bertie, our 1994 Punto Cabrio. The pump has stopped working, but there is not a problem with the pump, I have a spare which I have tested off the car, but when I connect it, it doesn't work. I have tested the live feed to the pump and it is fine, it...

Ted's looking a little exposed at the rear!

I think you will find it is upside down. That is what is hiding the details! ;)

Gladys looks as neat and tidy underneath as on top.

I can feel its heat from here!

Correct, I did mean Esbjerg. Evje is where my Brother-in-Law used to live!

It's a shame the ferry doesn't still run from Kristiansand to Newcastle, or Evje to Harwich. Used them both in the past, although not with a vehicle.

If you set off now, you might just about make it in time! ;)

I think the Transit version was the Wayfarer. There was a Commer (or Spacevan) Buccaneer which had a full length elevating roof which extended over the cab area. Probably need to take a look at Kes's archive.

Interesting hybrid, described as a Buccaneer (probably correct), but with a Wanderer roof: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1981-Dodge-Commer-PB-Spacevan-Buccaneer-Motorhome-campervan/293184668733?hash=item44432b043d:g:RbQAAOSwrxFdUB6b
