    Hello Tim/Mandy, Firstly thank you very much for such informative and inspiring videos. The words "life's too short" often help me to get back on track with the search for a future 'home on wheels' when at times the obstacles appear rather too many and insurmountable. If you would be so kind as to let me know what has happened to "Betsy", and how after years of van living the Hymer compares to all the other vans past and present you have known. I am currently contemplating a 1997 S660 Hymer but as a total novice to motor homes your insight would be highly valued, thank you. Best wishes to you both.

    Hey Tim great to see you & Mandy doing well.. what a fantastic conversion that is..its a familiar thing tbh as my dad about 20 year ago had one of those & converted it..he along with several friends those in the old army forward controls as they called them did 3 week around Iceland in them.. Looked like you were parked at the top of Appleby Cross there? Me & kerry did the nc500 last year absolutely loved it & loved it that much were going back this year.. Did it in a roof tent on the car last year but I'm currently converting my own van at the moment a vauxhall vivaro lwb..looking forward to it & cant wait to start using it.. Anyways take care mate & all the best..Andy..

      Hi Andrew thanks for your comment buddy. Sounds to me like you had one cool dad!. We still go up to Castleton for a night in the van, getting crowded out now lol, but Scotland like yourself is so so special. We wanted to do a real test of the landrover over pass of the cattle and sleep on top in winter conditions and it was toasty warm. Take care buddy and may you and Kerry have many more trips to the west coast :) Tim/Mandy

    It's so sad to see the state of the road today. Fifty years ago this village was wonderful, there was local people living here and it was a lovely peaceful village. I worked at the Nag's Head when it was a beautiful hotel. So many slobs or weekend wankers as I call them, turn up here and make it a shithole for two days a week.

    Pull, don't push, when trying to move bolts. Use WD40 first to lubricate, give it a couple of minutes and it'll all be easier. Stable door and bolted horse I know, but for future viewers . . . Thanks for sharing 😊

    WAW is a great route. I did a bit of it in Co. Mayo and Donegal last year. Like you I was in an 'almost' vintage 1992 VW T4 Westfalia - The van got a lot of love from folk who knew what it was. But the scenery and landscaoe is awsome. It will endlessly rain on the West Coast here, so take an umbrella. But the rain is what shapes the landscape and its beauty - Great upload thanks
