    No 10 is a great idea. Wasn’t going to have a waste tank on my campervan conversion to save space, but don’t want to empty straight onto the ground. Thought about a bowl, but now I have the perfect solution. Many thanks.

    Number 3 - Tarpaulin, poles and guys ropes. Keeps the rain off the open back doors.
    Number 4 - Another tarpaulin, poles and guy ropes and ground cover for underneath. Keeps the rain and sun off the side door. If you haven’t got a rail get one fitted. Means you can rest in the fresh air outside the van. Lie on the mat , if you don’t have chairs.
    Number 5 - A decent drive away awning. Not essential, but great for staying somewhere a couple of days. So you only take it in that circumstance.
    Number 6 - Fold away stools, and foldaway table. (Store almost anywhere in the van - even in the footwell - and gives you outside comfort in seconds). Takes up much less space than foldaway chairs. Can also be carried with a rucksack on a long walk - see how jealous everybody else is when you are sitting off the wet ground (or wet rocks) enjoying your lunch.
    Number 7 - Foldaway chairs. If you have the space. But useless for walks - get a small folding stool instead. Or maybe an inflatable “chair” or whatever else inflatable you want to use.
    Number 8 - A portable compressor fridge (if you don’t have one installed in the van). A potential luxury item, but you can get these for a reasonable price nowadays. Dometic ones are probably the best - assuming a win on the lottery.
    Number 9 - “portable” urinal and wipes - in certain circumstances can be a god-send. And easily packed away in a rucksack. (mostly a tip for the ladies - men are just disgusting and you don’t need to be concerned about them). Porti-potty if you have space, in a toilet tent or awning. Again, in a small camper van these can be essential for those of a “certain age”. Unless you enjoy “hiking” in the dark - and flashing badgers. Or worse still, having a conversation with an insomniac in the camp toilet blocks at 3 am.
    Number 10 - personal wash items including toothbrush and paste. Absolutely essential to remain in a partnership - and should I really have to mention these? Learn how to take a “towel bath” (tip for the new, spoiled generation - not anybody over 60).
    Kettles are not really essential (As long as you can boil water in a small pan - you do wash up last night’s stuff don’t you?). But if you have the space in the van, electric hookups etc. then why not? But you can always buy a cup of coffee somewhere - even at the top of Mount Snowdon (and Mont Blanc on the Italian side - again assuming you had a recent win on the “gee gees”. And you can always try sheep droppings - there, I went a whole paragraph without mentioning Costa Coffee or Starbucks.

    Hey you guys are just fantastic, my husband and I have watched nearly all your vlogs over the last week. We’ve put a deposit on a van and our adventure starts in August so your information has helped us a lot. We’ve also been to quite a few places you’ve been like Wales, St Cyrus (one of our favourite beaches ) and the west coast of Scotland.
    I would love to know more about your cooking skills in the van the chilli prawns look amazing…… I’m not a great cook and a bit worried about my lack of skills for campervaning. Cheers anyhoo and keep the vlogs coming.
    Kind regards

    As a tiny caravan owner (T@b 300) I would recommend a Remoska oven ( from Lakeland or pre owned?) expensive initially but soooooo worth it. We use it at home too to save heating up our oven. Thanks guys & keep up the good work x

    That was very useful really enjoyed watching , one thought was why not put the mobile phone in the case first then stick to the roof , I have to admit I was thinking of Tommy Cooper I was just waiting for you to say Not like that just like that . Take care stay safe Shaun in Canada formally from Ballymoney Co/Antrim

    • @MikeandTriciaOotnAboot
      @MikeandTriciaOotnAboot  4 роки тому

      Ha ha yes it was a bit of a Tommy Cooper moment. That would mean having velcro on your phone cover and putting it on/off roof each evening and would wear away at the carpeting. Easier to keep the mobile cover permanently on the roof, but remember to take your phone out of the day cover first😂

    Great fun and excellent advice. I am just investigating with intent to start but wonder whether I should get one of those special satnav systems for campervans etc as I am scared of ending up on small roads. Advice welcome.

      I suppose that depends on the size of van you end up with. We just used a regular sat nav because our van was small and never had any major problems, just once or twice we took roads that were very tight, and next time we would use the street view in Google maps to check before we go👍💕🐾

    Hi guy, really helpful video! Where did you get the magnetic strip for the roof to hold your teas and coffees?

      @MikeandTriciaOotnAboot  2 роки тому

      Thanks, we had a laugh making that. Link below on Amazon but I see that its not in stock. The strip is not magnetic, the magnets are inside the jar lid.

      I have looked but couldn’t find a Kiwi supplier. A missed opportunity for Kiwi firms. I think you could buy it on Amazon but the postage would probably be high

I have looked for micro towels but can only find ones as big as a hanky and not the big towel sizes I saw in the video. Could you please do your search magic again for me? Thanks in advance.

      We bought 2 large and 2 small microfibre towels from the Warehouse. They were located in an odd area. Car maintenance I think.The towels work really well and dry quickly. Anyway you could get info from the help desk or buy online
