Chantelle

Wow - here I am, I've just created this blog, my first, ready to tell the story of Chantelle, our beautiful 1963 Bedford Marshall bus that is going to take us on some wonderful adventures. I'm going to write this for fun, for all those people whose eyes lit up when we told them about her, and for anyone else wanting to do the same thing, so we can share what we find out. And maybe because just because I'm so excited about the whole thing !

Up early today - this promises to be a wonderful weekend. OH shot off to his HGV driving lesson early this morning, while we headed off to Twickeree, the weekend scout camp on Marble Hill. Once the boys were settled in camp, I headed down by train - to be met at the station in Chantelle which was great fun !

We examined the work we did last weekend, and realised the sealing of the cupboard should be fairly straightforward by using a combination of duct tape and alimunium tape. Got stuck into this, and was quite pleased with the results. We also made a modification to fit the new cooker, which is a bit wider, deeper and shorter - so work all round ! The kitchen just looks lovely with the appliances in, just the shabby retro look I really wanted.
