Thoroughly exhausting

June 8, 2008

It’s been a while since I made an update, so thought it was about time I did so.

Last weekend was spent mainly driving all over the country to collect parts for the SJ.

Saturday I drove to Berkshire to collect a toy for something that we’ve got planned for after the T2. There will be more information about that in a few months. 

On Sunday I drove to Cumbria to collect a roof top tent (the Oasis model from Trekking.fr). I can’t enthuse enough about how great this thing is. Forget about your 50Kg Eezi-Awns and similar. This little sucker weighs 19Kg, and because the base is essentially a hammock, it doesn’t need a heavy plywood base and mattress that can also go rotten. I love it, and even Greg was suitably impressed by it.

On the way back from Cumbria I passed through Derby to collect a full stainless exhaust system for the jeep - a bargainous 50 quid on Ebay - new too! It’s a thing of beauty - I’d much prefer to mount it on a wall than under the jeep, but needs must…

Other than that, I’ve bene busy with preparing the infrastructure and other backend gubbins for next years T2 website. It’s gonna be awesome :)
