Doesn't matter dark or light if I am not in my own bed(at home!)I wake too early!Bringing Dogs along doesn't help with lay-in either :I
On the silver screen I have I found a label dodge pb !

"SYBHIL" & N0.1
 
Thermal blackout lining in the middle of the material;) And then the same for the sky lights - Held on by good ole Velcro;) And of course for the cab....Silver screens. This keeps out Loads of light.

HAHAHA. The strawbs and the wine etc were included in the pic as these are the same ones i sent to Martin for his new book. Wanted to add a twee - ness to the photo's. I kinda wanted to portray that although it's an old van, it can still be enjoyed in a modern form:)

Thanks Martin for getting us out of the proverbial. We had a great night in Billing.
We were watching all the peeps trying to put up/keep tents up in the wind and rain, whilst we were living it up in the Duke;-)

What a treat to be able to make tea in the warm:p Roll on Vfest!

I'm so exited! We'll be sleeping in my Commer in Hampshire on saturday night. Hopefully it will rain and we can laugh at the stupid fools in tents.

commer + festival makes for a much better weekend than tent + all your stuff carrying across a field and being kept up all night by the neighbors and never being dry.

just paid for herself we think!

yeah saw this one in c&c, have you managed to sort the gearbox prob as im not at all mechanicaly minded was a bit put off by it, really love the colour reminds me off a dutch style!!:p
 
Hi AmyLou,

Yeah that's where we brought it from;-)
The gearbox problem doesn't really bother us too much to be honest. It sometimes jumps out of gear and Sh@ts you up when it happens but it's only happened 3 or 4 times when going up hills so i'm not too bothered as i now remember to put my hand on it HAHAHA!

We are in absolute LOVE with the van. And it was worth every copper coin that we paid for him!

Good luck in you search for a Commer;-)

Dodge Glendale
 
Bumpers are off now[^], we think he looks better without them. He drives super duper now albeit a little tappet noise which i need to get sorted. Was great getting back out in him;-)

Looks better on the P.A admittedly but still works on P.B too. I shall probably lose the spots too eventually once i have uprated the headlamps to something similar to Admin;-)
