Embarrassment

Well we have had some run ins with the owner over the last month or so over a carport or a garage..Was'nt a good out come even though he is aderment he doesnt want us to leave as we are the only tenants he has had to look after the house & we pay our rent on time every week..Also had a run in with him this week over a blocked bathroom floor waste .I was standing in an inch of water & it flooded right out to the kitchen. He was trying to tell me it was a water board problem cause he is such a tightarse its not funny..& since i stretched myself a little far with the wagon & the troubles with the owner we desided to get rid of the wagon.I completely gutted it & took the engine & gearbox out for Harry & have fitted the tropical roof to green one.& i took the gaurds & bonnet & the 1 piece rear door.& sold the rest for scrap..IT WENT TODAY :(:(.BUT i'm happy as i have well & truely got my moneys worth out of it..

OH Yeah the green one looks totaly differant now to..Will post pics when i have finished.Gotta put the paras in & cut the side roof windows in :D:D:D Also have painted the windscreen frame & all the gal cappings.& put new GRILL on..

that is a shame about the landlord being a bit of a *****. I am looking forward to hearing reports about the safari roof on the green machine

Well i put all the parabolics in the green one today with all the procomp shocks .:D .Been bloody hot out there today..The green one sits higher in the rear now which is ok by me cause when the camper is hooked on & fully loaded it should sit level..Need to take the wheels off & check the brakes see how much meat is left on the shoes , Hopping theres a bit so i can just adjust them all up . . There getting a bit squeeky & the pedal a little soft with more travel so yeah hopping they just need adjusting..

Pics will come but i want to get all the things done first :p:p:p..

Oh yeah the driveshaft rubs on the loop same as it did in the wagon but only just so its an easy fix this time

so when are you going camping next? and just wondering where have you taken the camper since you have it and any photos of it set up?

Have only used it once when my parents had there big house at thornton.They had a spare block as such.Was still in there fence at side of house but big enough that you could build a big house & shed on..So we took it up there to see how to put it up..Have set it up here a few times now as i have been adding things to it..Its unregistered now but thats ok as it was due today so will rerego after Xmas so its not so close to Xmas..I've been doing work to it aswell.I'd like to build a new kitchen as this one is old.

I would like to get back upto Barranton tops , used to go up there every 2nd or 3rd weekend as a kid I i really like it up there..I was just reading an artical in a 4x4 mag & white rock camping area is now closed which is a shame as i wanted to take the kids there as there is a natural slide in the rocks..But i'm hoping i can still get to a place on the opposite side of the creek so we can walk over to it..

Some pics..

Yeah i think it is actualy . .Was a big camping area with pit loos..now its gone aparently..But i'll see if i can get oposite side of the creek theres a small camp area there just bid enough for one family..Gets really crowded up there nowadays i'm told..seems everyone goes camping these days.I can understand why to with some prices for holidays , Even staying in a caravan park can be expensive..

we have been there a few times the last time i went with school but that was 6 years ago and i know the natural slide you are talking about.
It does get very busy there now and has been for sometime , i know a lot of underage people go drinking there
