Hi people, in the aftermath of the several nasty earthquakes we have had , I have been stressed and keeping a low profile, I've done LOTS of miles in the bus and have a couple of pics to share , and a sad tale....
First up a nice pic , old Mercedes House Truck , at Ashburton.
and a cute Bedford VAS (7.3 metre long)
These were parked up at the Ashburton Motor Home Expo. There were about 300 motorhomes available for sale . and some trade stalls. I bought some LED lights for the bus , very low current draw , but very antiseptic white light.
One of the vans had a cute sign on the back of it.
Later I went and visited the site of the Canterbury Easter Rally.
There were nearly 500 vehicles there , all parked WAY too close together for my personal comfort level. But each to their own , eh.
Amusing moment when the band CYCLED past
A while ago someone asked what my truck looked like, Well .... here it is .... towing my bus
![Sad :(](./images/smilies/icon_sad.gif)
after hurtling up and down the country over the past few months , the old 330 diesel decided it had had enough and siezed!
I had to make a stiff drawbar to get it home again.
Now I am forced to stop procrastination on the repower . I start stripping the Nissan donor truck this coming week.
