Thanks for the viewing offers guys, I'll take you up on them when I have some time off.

The granvia was a DIY conversion, not only are the wellhouse ones expensive but they only seem to convert petrol models ? Mine was the 3 litre landcruiser engine that was more than happy to run on veggie oil.....did I mention I'm a cheapskate ?

The link for my travel diary of anybody is bored...

Not that bad Lloyd, I was wondering if there was a blog somewhere.

So many of them start with best intentions, lose steam with the input and fizzle out.

Thanks, I enjoy getting my thoughts down and plan to keep a travel diary for all my trips, even did one for a recent long weekend in Reykjavik !

If I get a camper sorted in time I'm planning a jaunt around Europe in the summer this time heading through Belgium, Luxembourg, Germany, Austria, Switzerland and Italy over 5 weeks.

You were right my truck is a D22 but has had the engine work done by billcar engineering from new, it was used by a wedding catering company in Gloucester and is immaculate, it's never done any real work and only has 55k on the clock !

That sounds like a keeper then, once the D22 engine has gone pop and been rebuilt they seem to be pretty unburstable after that. Plus less modern electrical stuff to cause you headaches and MOT bills.

Interesting read Chilli, dog was pleased to see you to start with anyway,
found the script a bit odd, the epilogue was fine but later entries were difficult to read (the typewritten format)

good though, that you got your thoughts down, I always forget after the holiday

It does seem to have some sort of issue, works fine on the mobile app and on my chromebook but not on anything else, can't seem to fix it ?

I had a read though last night as well, it does the same in a chrome browser then we have a similar issue on here as well, some of the firefox genre browsers make a better job of it than others,


subject matter was OK though Lloyd,
dog forgiven you yet?
