Thank you so much Vanessa! That's very kind of you 😊 ... Just trying to keep it real, friendly and with a bit of humour. Turns out people seem to be interested in an old boy in an old camper! ... I'm very humbled 🙏🏻😊 ... Part two coming soon! 😉

Inspired choice of Boum by Charles Trenet. Perfect fit for the opening sequence of your French adventure. I can imagine playing that tune would put a spring in the step of Blanche.

Hey Dunc! It's Unc! 😅 ... Great to hear from you! I'll be in Portugal (Algarve) until early / mid Jan, then starting the long journey back! ... Yes, quite an adventure! Take care and safe travels yourself. 🙏🏻😊

😂 . I'll need to check your videos in full soon. I've not had time to sit down properly today but when I have the chance I will. Portugal is lovely. A nice pace of life and easy people. I'm quite familiar with the area between Faro and Sagres, and a few years ago I enjoyed driving from Ericeira to Faro, stopping along the way in many beautiful spots. Mum told me all about your van and travel plans. I think it's inspiring.. It takes courage to dive in, but you did it!@@BillyandBlanche

Great stuff, Billy. Enjoyed your vid! We had a C15 HyLo for 10 years, had our current R20 for 12 years. Totally hooked. Been round UK and lots of places in Northern Europe. Good choice of vehicle, enough living space, never a problem parking it and low fuel consumption. Keep up the good work! Bill (as it happens!)

Fabulous. Great commentary, nice scenery, clearly on a budget (we do night-time sailings too) and an XUD (probably). Turbo? Part time camper but no longer in a Pug 405. Mondeo now. Surprisingly good! Cheers n good luck

This looks fantastic Bill! Love it. Love it all. Is it rude to share that Blanche is older than me 😂 Bamburgh looks amazing and we drove as a family in France for the first time this year and it was such a different world to our roads here. I've subscribed and look forward to keeping up with your adventures! Wishing you all the best and Bon Voyage! Warm wishes, Nathan

What a lovely message Nathan ... Thank you so much 💙 🙏🏻 ... Glad you've experienced driving in France ... Yes, you're right it's a different world! 🇨🇵 How far we've both come eh?! ... Since that dark, cold winter night a few years back! 🫤 ... You've worked so hard mate. Anyway ... Hope you're both well and thank you so much for subscribing 🙏🏻 ... Oh ... and Blanche isn't precious about her age! She's proud of it!! 🤣 Take care mate 🙂 🚐💨

What an amazing adventure Bill, great idea to travel to warmer climes in the depth of our winter. Wish I could do that one day! Feel for you with the toilet mishap , I have had to carry out that duty many times. Enjoy your time away and will look forward to seeing you when you get back.

Hi, what seats have you fitted in the front. I assume you have the little helper springs on the rear axle. I have fitted some from a scooter to mine which lifts it well and still has good travel.
@BillyandBlanche

Hi there! ... Thanks for your comment. I'm actually not sure what seats they are??!! 😅 The guy I bought Blanche from works on VW transporters. He was stripping one out and messaged me to see if I wanted these seats. They were already aftermarket on the VW. I roughly measured them and said ok ... £40! 👌🏻🙂👍🏻 ... And they bolted straight in!! 😊 ... I also didn't realise until I started fitting them, that they are fully electric! Raising, tilting and reclining! ... And they are so comfortable! The original seats were so awful! 🤣 Sorry I can't tell you anymore than that. As for 'helper springs' ... I'm not entirely sure? But that's a good shout and I'll look into it. I have a fair bit of stuff in the back for my travels but there's still play to spare on the rear suspension and I always take it easy round corners anyway!
