Everything old is new again.

Including me. I was posting here sometime ago when I had a coaster bus and a caravan but I wasnt nomadic. Well I just bought a truck that has the legs and space for a tall blocke to travel. The fitout begins today and pictures will be posted. I have some novel ideas for fittout and will soon discover if they are going to work.

The link didnt show for me. Possibly because I am on an android tablet. I will get a real computer and make a tidier post. The furniture such as it exists is pretty rubbish. I gues I should move the discussion to Show us your Rig?

There shouldnt be much to do. The linkages in the gear change mechainism are not changing smoothly but that is all mechainicly. The Shell is nice and I plan on just fitting rubbishy makeshift furniture untill I decide exactly what I want and then go ahead and build it in properly. The really big job wwill be upgrading the electrics and putting in a IoT Raspberry Pi Smart Home setup. I have got all the bits. Its the sort of job you can while away happily under a tree doing.
