Mum's Birthday

A visit to Derbyshire for Mum's birthday. Lots of cake and lots of candles.

We love to visit the canal with Grandad and Layla. We went on an adventure around the old forge too where Granada and Layla spend most of their time these days. Grandad showed us his secret stick hiding place.

Wagon conversion part I

Dad made us a couple of ply seats that will convert into a bed.

 Peahead found a bench seat on ebay. It's great as it seats three, folds forward when you want the space and then folds right back into a bed for the kiddos.

Next, rip out the manky old carpet and fit a new one. I can see we will be spending most of the summer in this wagon.......fixing it up rather than travelling in it!

Crazy new project

We have gone a bit mad and bought a rusty old beast of a wagon.

It's an '89 American Ford Econoline. A day van that we have visions of converting into a camper.
