Motorhome prepping

As long as you get the logbook changed to camper by DVLA, they have no choice but to insure it as a camper.

The only thing in my garden is a septic tank. Would love a little den on my own property

Winter in the car......

Euro car parts have an offer on at the moment for screenwash. Add it to your basket and add promo code JANSALE and you get 5L of concentrate for £2.60 with free delivery. It was even cheaper at the weekend so I got 20L. http://www.eurocarparts.com/ecp/p/car-accessories/engine-oils-and-car-fluids/ant...

Banks leaving after brexit

I think it depends which media outlet you want to believe. The BBC couldn't be any more biased if they tried, even positive news will have the words 'despite brexit' somewhere in the article. Yet other outlets are saying the banks aren't going anywhere and Brexit hasn't even made them blink. Sent fr...

Vehicle

I have a Skoda Octavia estate which is permanent 4x4. It's the tried and tested 1.8t petrol engine, which is in VW golfs, audis and skodas.
