From vast experience I can tell you that a Porta-Potti wont fit in that cupboard.
Jeez! We lived in a [STRIKE]motorhome[/STRIKE], panel van with a caravan interior nailed into it, for six years & it had more space than that £170/wk shoebox.
In fact, three months of shoe box rent equals the cost of it.... & it had swivelling front seats; & a sofa: & a permanent double bed: & a shower ..... I think I want to hit the road again

Was it a high top long wheel base van?

Yes, about 22ft long. An Iveco 35/12.
OH had a job getting me out of the driver's seat sometimes, it was so effortless to drive. Probably still is, but we have not used it for some years.

Apologies to everyone 'tuning-in' expecting another must-have pile of ykw
However there is a sort of link to property as living the much freer, just-retired, life in a truck in Europe is cheaper than shelling out in the UK; & more rewarding in other ways too.

As you look at it from the front there is a bungalow to the right that always appears to have 'travellers' vehicles and paraphernalia in front of it and which is accessed across the front of the house for sale. I've always thought they were connected.


To the left there is a shack that in the past was used for selling farm produce. At one time the field alongside was used for car boot sales.

& Ian Hendry in the lead role?

That is a crazy price for an area that doesn't always have a summer; never mind the other 350 days of the year.
