Lollie Scramble

I'm really looking forward to this weekend.
It will be our first opportunity to discover just what we have bought. It seems to be the practise for previous owners to just add as they need, and dump as they leave.

This assortment of goodies is usually advertised as "and much more..." and in our case includes, a pergola, assorted map books and Tonic water, in dinky little cans. Shall we take bets I won't find any gin?
Weather permitting, I plan on emptying out the camper and taking a full inventory....a thorough 'spring' clean wouldn't go astray either.

Only then, can I start on my wish list to equip the camper as my home.

Currently in priority order:

• Larger refillable all over Europe gas bottles
• Stereo with SD and USB and iPod etc.. £60 + speakers £25 from eBay
• Safe for Laptops, speaker face, phones wallets etc...
• Curtain on skylight which runs the length of the camper
• Extra Water?
• Extra Gas?
• Solar Shower?
• Centre Table?
• Add single bed/bench at rear - for Mum on her weekends off.
• Add double bed over cab - so we don't have to make up downstairs bed every night
• Change curtains - They are red!
• Change seat covers - these are a different shade of red
• Change carpet to lino - another shade of red.
• Paint cupboards - these are light wooden veneer.
• Alarm?
• More toilet chemicals?
• Attachable awning? (probably not)
• Window in back door (probably not)

The camper is pretty well equipped for us to take off now, but if we plan on stealth camping a lot then we might need to be a bit more prepared for consecutive days without electrical hookup. And, whilst I may have decorated all my bedrooms in lush claret red, in a red van - it feels a bit claustrophobic and not at all summery.
