#WaffleOnWednesday, Hi Mel, I really enjoy the channel, thank you. Quick Question!!!! I have a Transit Custom which I am converting. I’ve installed a Smev Sink/Hob unit. Would the water filter system you have work with the collapsable Smev tap system?
Hi Mel, 2 questions, do you have a CCTV system? I’ve been looking, but struggle to find one that blends in with my stealth facade.
Also I have just rewatched your quiet pump video, could you do a comparison noise test between the pump when it was new and now its bedded in? Just interested to see if time does actually make a difference to the noise level.
Yes I do! video coming soon
@Mel’s Big Van Small World I can’t wait
Good waffle. I do remember your cats and forgot about them! I quite like the look of the mobile eye clinic van I saw outside a medical centre once. I bet they come with some home comforts too.
Hi Mel …. I hope Your ‘Troll-Of-The-Week’ Troll’s Amazon & eBay as well … Because they’ve done MORE! to LIFT the Chinese Economy into the Super-Economy that it is today than any ONE Youtuber 😂😂 …. And – WE! – are ALL as Complicit as each other 🙂
Happy New Year to you and Rebecca
Thank you Brian that’s very kind of you we wish you all the best for 2023 too 👍🤓👍
People having children right now surely must wonder what the electricity price per kWh will be when they are 10 maybe it will be 10 pounds
Great vlog Mill 👍 👌
Thank you 🙌
These type of vans usually spend a lot of time with the engine running on idle, not good for the engine.
Really
@Mel’s Big Van Small World Yep really
I previously had a welfare van
Only issue was insuring it as it was an 8 seater
# From Chris Smith. Hi Mel, great blog. I have retired from motorhomes after owning 3 in the last 35 years. If you had a gas system in your van would you travel without turning off the gas at the bottle. My own belief is if you were involved in an accident and the gas leaked and caused damage your insurance would be invalid. Over the years I don’t think I have ever seen anybody advising travelling with the gas turned off ,although I have seen people advise travelling with it on to keep the fridge alight. What are your views. Chris
Wondering what the panoramic style print is behind you always intrigues me wondering what it is, whilst listening to your very informative words of advice. Thank you for the great vids kp up the great work! -Ash #WaffleOnAWednesday
👍👋
#waffleonaWednesday do you like pina coladas
Must admit I have always thought that when I convert my (yet to be bought) van to RV use, I would look for a base vehicle that was already insulated and already had windows – simply because the quality of workmanship would probably be better than anything I could achieve. I hadn’t thought of Welfare vans but they seem to fit the bill very well.
