Why don't you cut and paste all these snippets of life with the camper van into one large "here's the progress" thread in the vehicles section.

I can not keep up with your step by step progress and it seems to be moving right along.

You are always doing something new and different to the rig and it might make a good thread when all combined even if it is only a one post process from day to day.

Hi MB, i can’t take much credit for the camper as it is a professional conversion of a peugeot van.

It came complete with bed, gas fridge, gas heater, gas stove, shower and chemical toilet, so the hard work was already done.

For security i had it fitted with a top range alarm, locking wheel nuts, extra rear door locks and a battery isolating switch.

What i have done is tried to plan my preps, the vehicle is used for holidays and as such is always loaded with good BO basics, two to three weeks food, full water tank (not in winter), water filter, bedding an clothing appropriate to the season. So i have always have a good start.

The van is always parked with a full tank of fuel.

I’ve made thermal screens for all windows and have a good jack and tool kit onboard and some spares.

If i think things are deteriorating to a stage where we would not be safe and have to bug out most of our preps are in crates ready to load up.

Crates are canned food, dried foods, extra clothing, tools (axe, spade, bowsaw, tarps, rope, claw hammer, nails etc), two water jerrycans, fuel can, extra kitchen equipment, leasure battery, small inverter and now the folding solar panel.

That’s all i can think of at the moment.
