Delilah is delighted to announce her new solar panel charge controller
This is in an attempt to get the fridge to run through the night at Nowhere in Spain this summer
I'm also adding an extra 130Ah battery, giving 260Ah in total... or 57 hours runtime.

Gizz and Willow buy a van. And tour the UK and Europe. What could possibly go wrong™?

Microburn - Last festival of the Summer
No pictures from this year's Microburn.
Willow arrived under a separate cover πππ
But we had fun. Mostly.
Delilah worked well.
------------------
A week or two after Microburn Delilah was pottering up Swinscoe Hill when her turbocharger feed pipe fell off.
Curses.
£190 and all fixed.
She's going into hibernation now, to be reborn a butterfly in the springtime!
See you all next year π

It's Not The End of the World
Penultimate festival, by the Horsedrawn Camp.
I was rather taken by this Ural truck - sadly they are rather expensive...
Dawn breaks...
Willow sleeps...
And then, on the way back north, we happened across a lobster dinner!
Who'd have thought it?

Power steering pump, and Green Gathering
Lookit! A new shiny power steering pump! (It's the little things...)
The next day we went to the Northern Green Gathering:
Where finally the new coffee pot came into it's own:
Mmmm breakfast!

Across Europe to Belgium
So all too soon Borderland was over and we faced the 1500 mile trek back to England.
Again we hurtled over the enormo-bridge:
Bridge!
Bridge! Island!
And back to Germany (where we had a wee)
And finally to a canal just north of Brugges, where we camped for the night.
The next day we noticed an unusual noise coming from the power steering pump. But managed to limp the remaining 500 miles back home...

- Watching the burn
- Hey It's You Guys!
- Finding Narnia
- Standing on the top of the church
- Saturday lightshow
Here's Willow on the effigy:
