Bought an awning - Khyam Driveaway XC. Pretty much the same design as the Navigator Kombi I've been looking at for months but £60ish cheaper. Khyam come well recommended on the Club 80-90 forums so happy enough to jump in.

Speaking of Club 80-90, it's a great website. Loads of advice, a sprinkling of characters and fellow obsessives. Look forward to meeting up at various shows - wonder if my usual social autism will get in the way. Coolbox or fridge definitely needed to keep my "social skills" cold.................

Mum on standby to make curtains - going up t'hills tomorrow night to see her for a measure up. Ann (my lovely wife) is still insisting on styling the interior so will be on the hunt for material soon.

Budget is stretching a bit but should be ok. Might not have the exhaust gold-plated now
