hello for another new member
Ok first post a quick (ish) intro and hello.
I have an Auto sleeper Dorset purchased in 2007. Prior to this we spent 30+ years camping / caravanning. Some good times have been had in the van including 18months touring the UK only going home to pay the bills.
Unfortunately in 2011 both of us suffered from Leukaemia and spent the next 18 months in hospital, my wife passed last August and although I had a bone marrow transplant it has taken till now to recover sufficiently to consider using the van again.
As you can imagine the van needed some work having basically sat on the drive for most of that time, but all has now been sorted.
Hopefully in the next few weeks I will get away to give the van a shake down and see how I get on solo flying.
