Katt

so all sorted with Alf bedding and ladder brought x

I've brought a ladder that collapsed so 4ft ladder easily stored behind the seat.

Thank you and Alf is a dream

I picked my Alf up yesterday. What sort of bedding do you guys have in the pop up and a 3/4 rock n roll beds. Also need a ladder to get up there - any one got any suggestions. Much excitement

Just insured for the first time for two drivers and AA breakdown cover with Safe Guard - half the price of the others that I called including Adrian flux.

Sounds a great idea and definately top tip about the kettle and tea. Love a cuppa. I've also brought an insulated jug so can top up my tea without boiling the kettle much. We got a solar panel added to it. Thanks for the mattress topper idea - sounds cosy and you need comfort when you sleep x

Oh yes and a side kitchen was going for a rear kitchen lol but the other person can go up in the pop up x Fabulous - they were both great - we went just seen what they were like and were going to buy in Spring but decided they were just lovely. Agree with you Russty - one of us can sleep in the bed and the other one can go up in the pop up x

Thank you so much for this forum, answering my questions etc. Went to have a look at one at Andy's Imports and put a deposit down. Pick up on Saturday first camper and now what else do I need. It is a great piece of kit - didnt realise it was bigger. Was going for rear kitchen but got side and pop up top for extra person. Lovely solar panel added too. He is a great guy who answers every question.

Wow that is so helpful and much appreciated. Never thought about a dog hammock lol will investigate. Thankfully we are going to look at some on Saturday and see what we can do. Endless possibilities lol and you are right you have to get it right. No point having something that doesn't fit your need. Thanks again for your advice and help - it is so useful. I shall be looking at dog hammocks I just want a bit of comfort so I can sleep Rock n roll beds do look quite slim Thanks again and this is quite fun in the research side. K

I think we will definite get convert otherwise might as well stick with my car. The deciding factor will be if we can somehow squeeze two single beds that can be made up and not the seats being laid flat. Hopefully from the visit on Saturday we can see what they can do.

I think we might have to get a toilet tent for the middle of the night. Oh will look at hammocks. Was thinking about an awning where we could have a spare room too. That is a cracking idea about hammocks. Also good idea about that - we could perhaps take one row out to make a kitchen??? at the rear. Any more suggestions are very welcome.

Going to be a long weekend van probably localish camping. A couple of weeks in Scotland at campsite. Two girlies who are not a couple intend to use it and we will not be wild camping. All camping will be done at a site. We love walking, so no children or pets. So we need an option of two beds. We are both quite small in height but not sure about climbing up the top. Any help would be great

Sorry off to see some on Saturday - what is the best version to buy. Another question but you guys are so helpful

Thanks Picasso - I am going to see Andy next weekend. Any advice would be welcome Thank you

i'm going to have a look at some imports on Saturday. I've seen on a couple of pages that a few have broken down, how reliable are they. Is it easy for a local garage to source parts. I'm not a mechanic and want something very reliable and not having to do anything apart from top up the oil and water and get it serviced by someone professional. I think I am getting put off as I have been on a facebook page and it is full of owners broken down and getting stuck. I'll be travelling on my own so this is putting me off. Any lovely advice. They do look fabulous

Thanks for this and we are going to have a look at some at Andy's imports. So the information about the twin single bed is really useful thank you. Never would I attempt a self build! Thank you so much that is really helpful advice.

Thanks Rojie Not yet - I'm going to have a look at some vans for conversion at Andy's imports in two weeks time - so been doing research. What vehicle type would be best that he would import over. Any help would be gratefully received as currently, it is looking a very big definate on buying this sort of van x

Does anyone have two single beds in a conversion rather than one double. I know I can lay the seats back - beds would be a seat during the day K
