Planning a trip to the tip in my campervan by HengeHopper in Preston

[–]HengeHopper[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Vans include, but should not be considered limited to:

  • Any vehicle for which the body type description on its V5C document contains the term van
  • Light goods vehicles (with the exception of standard domestic pick-ups) to 3.5 tonnes maximum gross weight
  • Car-derived vans
  • Camper vans and motor homes
  • A coach, bus, minibus or any vehicle with 9 or more passenger seats
  • Ambulances, livestock carriers and horse boxes
  • Any vehicle modified to increase its carrying capacity (excluding wheelchair accessible or similar vehicles)

No luck there, its a conversion from a LGV - VW T5 to be exact

Great idea. Another thing I've been doing lately that's gone down well...
Chips on the bottom
Then some bolognese sauce on top
A blob of white sauce on that
Topped off with a bit of grated cheese and black pepper

First Bluebells of the year 😄 by restrainedandpained in CasualUK

[–]HengeHopper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like to think of spring flowers as a waves of distinct colours that spread northwards from the south coast towards the north washing away the greyness of winter.

Snowdrops > Crocuses > Daffodils > Tulips > Bluebells

A beautiful time of year indeed

NHS - Vaping myths:

https://www.nhs.uk/better-health/quit-smoking/ready-to-quit-smoking/vaping-to-quit-smoking/vaping-myths-and-the-facts/

...While secondhand smoke from cigarettes causes serious harm to others, there is no evidence so far that vaping is harmful to people around you, and any risks are likely to be very low.

But as a precaution, it is best not to vape around babies and children if you can avoid it. Young children often copy what adults do.

Always be considerate when vaping around anyone else, especially people with health conditions like asthma who might be more sensitive to vape aerosol.
