opps wrong thread.Aha!
Well... I'm keeping you in suspenders just for now, Gordon (oo-er, missus!
It will not come as not surprise to some, and a certain electrickery gentleman from the Borders may well approve(?).
As for the rest of the wildcampers - you will either love, hate, or sniff in disdain and disinterest wondering why I'm so excited!

Great news.Got the thumbs up from mechanic, just about as mint as you can get all round
Neil is sorting out payment just now, then insurance to sort and it'll be collected and sitting on our driveway in the blink of an eye - the seller only lives just over a mile away!

Backstory!
Jeanette was out and about yesterday afternoon on some regular errands and she and her husband decided to go a different way back home to normal.
That was when Jeanette spotted a camper just off on a side road with a for sale sticker in the window. It was not on a busy main road with loads of passing traffic and you would probably have to be a car passenger, not driver, to be even quick enough to spot it.
She texted me straight away. I didn't pick up the text until about an hour later. Told Neil it was worth going to check out as only 2 minutes drive away so we went straight off to see it.
Turns out it is a 100% lovely genuine seller. The "for sale" sign had only been placed in the window that morning at around 11:00am.
The lady owner is (extremely!) reluctantly selling due to genuine health issues and it has been meticulously looked after by her for the last 13 years. Only 2 previous owners, and that's including the current owner.
I just can't express how over the moon I am, Neil's really pleased too, so we're 2 very happy bunnies right now
After months of fruitless searches (and having almost given up the ghost), Serendipity definitely rules!

I think this has made my shifty so far weekend delighted for you both
so are you a dubber now or is it a wildebus model
Shh! I told David not to say anything yet!
Let's just say that our old VW will be usable as a very comfortable camper immediately, unlike Admin's mega-posh techy-fied ultra-modern VW (and no doubt cost us peanuts by comparison!
)Not that I'm envious or anything...
