Doing up Daisy!
At the back of the caravan is a very small room which a Portaloo could be put or it could be used to change in. Right from the start I knew I didn't want to have a loo in our van. Due to one of my best memories as a child was heading off in the middle of the night, armed with a torch to find the loo block.
We thought about keeping the small room for storage but the van has lots of storage space and it's taking so much light from the van. Also we are thinking of putting in bunks.
What we used: a hammer, chisel and screwdrivers.
A lot of the screws had rusted and there was no way they were coming out. Some we managed to hook out using the hammer, like you would a nail. Some had to be cut out, by cutting the wood around with the chisel. We knew we didn't need to be too careful with the bathroom walls as we didn't need to reuse them. We kept any good (non rotted) wood to reuse if possible, else where.
So much more light! Do not give your husband a hammer and take your eyes off him.....the original Gaslight did not make it out alive!
The shelf didn't want to come out whole, so we will need to add back in a plain shelf to give her a little more stability.
First job done!
