It is when it's in my mouth, but unfortunately I find it less so as it passed downstream...


What made you get a van? Just because?

That's not a Cadillac!

You should start selling Gyros with chips.

Bloody good job you can, by the looks of it.....That reminds me of the "Ramraiders" episode of Steptoe.

Falafel is disgusting goat crap. Of course I'm not turning it into a hipster food van.

It is indeed a Commer Walk-Thru, well done that man. Ex Surrey Ambulance Service (APD 303B is on the internet outside the works). It came about through the gentleman who I met at Beaulieu, who mentioned he had some Humber Snipe engines, gearboxes and overdrives which I subsequently bought, also had this Commer he told me about, which has the same 6 cylinder petrol engine as the Humber, albeit with a lower output. This was in November, but I could not stop thinking about it. Never before would I have thought of a vehicle like this, but since I was offered it and I could see its potential (it is part fitted out as a camper and the gentleman used it to trade at Beaulieu), I agreed to buy it. The van has not been on the road for 30 years but has been dry stored, so it is a long term project but will not take much to actually get running. The important thing is the dry storage. So Conrad and I have been going along to clear space around it and get it rolling ready for recovery.
