In the early 70s I could have bought a van excactly like the one below. I was working in a workshop in a garage in Hertford. Abbiss garage I think it was called. I would love one now.

Last night my step counter target alarm went off just as I got into bed. Well pleased that I hadn't over-exerted myself smile

In the late '60s, my cousin Barry had a grey A55 van like that.

With a big mattress in the back.

Awesome.

And surprisingly handy. whistle

Fire lit, muffins out of oven, film about to start.

‘Great Pushfit fire’
‘Yeah’

‘I put some old offcut ply on from the en-suite job last year’
....

‘It’s very raging’
.....
‘Mmmm’
.....
‘The chair is steaming’
.....
.....
‘It’s smoking!!!’
......
‘I’ll get some water’

Try lighting a joint and filming the log burner.

Report back, let us know what happens.

I suppose you could put the TV in the oven as well while you're at it.

Did he call it Squeals on Wheel?
I once saw a customized escort van with that on a sticker, the full sticker read:
Passion Wagon, Squeals on Wheels....don't laugh, it could be your daughter!

Sage advice there from Bomma.

But I seem to be detecting a hint of confusion and hesitation coming from the direction of CC.
