Are We There Yet? Lets GO !!
New Bus already for the road..Hot water..TESTED and OK…. Gas BBQ TESTED and sorted (after contacting the seller it doesn’t work !! he told us about a switch we didn,t know was there ! AND it works!) Hot Water System all thumbs up and systems GO..12 Volt Battery outlet ( used for tyre compressor ) up and running,altho we did have to return to Workshop as the makers in America hadn,t put it together !! All is well on that now..Interior Ladder redesigned and made suitable for us old people to get into the bed !! Dongle full of music and movies ready…CB Aerial fitted and functioning great ( ready for some great road Jargon for our BIG trip mid year or later) 12 Volt compressor has arrived,tested and tip top condition ( thanks to Paul our unofficial new equipment tester) We have had Airbags fitted to help the Springs as we are travelling thru theOutback.Tomorrow Annie will stock up with grub and water (can,t wait to try the external shower !) Hardest part will be Friday am reversing the car onto the slide on (practice,practice,practice) Destination not yet defined as it is still kids school holidays and we want to keep away from them !!!
It has been quite a while getting sorted out,we thought selling the ‘old’ Motorhome would be a headache but we sod it as as it was advertised !! by a freak chance we spotted Palomino ( apparently the only distributors in the whole of Australia) hidden down a side street.We met up with the sellers Kevin & Tanya and was told we would have to wait until March for our new bus ! BUT bcause they are so nice and my continually harassment we took control of out new portable home before Christmas.All models are made in the USA and are shipped to him every 3 or 4 months and he is extremely busy ! After sales is fantastic and Mr fixit of the firm ( Bob) always on hand to sort us out (which he did with a smile on his face) SO Big thanks team we are now ready for the ultimate testing ( seeing if I live with Annie in such small quarters !! Only kidding Ann,just in case you are reading this !!) Hopefully I will gather enough info as we go on and add many more (hopefully) interesting Blogs !! Stay tuned
