We still are!! Don't you worry there is no way we would leave without coming for a visit. We've been busy building and getting settled but are hoping to get out to you all soon! ❤️❤️❤️

Just wanted to suggest you keep an eye on the grey water outlet. (Ie The hose connector). Our caravan only has the tiny plug hole in the sink, so only small stuff goes down the drain. We had the hose connector at the outlet and after a short amount of time we had a blockage and the water backed up and came into the shower tray. We ended up leaving the hose connector off so the water could flow out freely. Good luck and safe travels

Thanks for the tip! Very good point and it's definitely been something on our minds. Keeping a very close eye on what goes down the sinks, but clogs are unavoidable hey!

@@DiandSam unfortunately “small” waste does escape and get down the plug hole. We were very careful but stuff still went down and eventually it blocked up.

You would not believe what we had to fix last week.... The exact problem you warned us about!! We had to upgrade the size of the hose for sure!!

Hi Di and Sam welcome back to Australia. One week omg. Now that’s really getting real. Hope you feel better soon Di. Live the driftwood handles. Well done with cooking in the buss and getting the plumbing sorted. Nice break in. Thank goodness you got rid of the noise.

Unsure whereabouts you are in the country but Obriens truck and bus should be able to custom cut the laminated safety glass that the windscreen is made out of and remove and fit the new screen. Otherwise have a chat to a local bus smash repairer and have it done through them
@killerdan1345 ай бұрын
If you’re in Sydney I could potentially help you out with numbers to call to organise this as well. I work as a bus smash repairer for a local bus company
@DiandSam5 ай бұрын
I did try to give them a call but they didn't seem to be able to help. I might call again and enquire about a custom panel. We're in West Vic, Geelong way, we're down here as we figured it'd be easier to finish all these last bits with more services available to us Thanks so much dude

Will you be keeping the big tv in the bus? It takes up alot of room.
@DiandSam5 ай бұрын
Yeh we will, it can be pushed back against the wall so it actually takes up very little room and for now we have plenty to spare 😁

pretty sure that noise is from the tool that is used to smash the windows. i just wired those to them selves. the same alarm can be used for other things so good to keep it hooled up. there will be two wires above the door and two by back emergency window. just bridge them together. love the vids

Hi Di and Sam looks great but the dish washer hose must be at least as high as the top of the dish washer otherwise it will drain the dish washer wile working and leave your dishes dirty Love RUSTY.

Getting there!!! I'm curious as to the latches on your cupboard, are they compliant? Or is that just temp when moving? Windows in my bus are being removed atm and going to be reskinned this weekend. I am so looking forward to finally being able to work on the inside!!!
@DiandSam5 ай бұрын
Hey John, theres nothing that we have seen for complience regarding latches, so they are just to keep the door closed. As for keeping things securely closed for the engineer certificate we bought some magnetic locks from Bunnings that will go in all the cupboards :) Oh wow thats going to be huge, are you getting them tinted darker or just strengthened? We have to get our windscreen replaced and its been hell trying to find someone to do it!!!
