We found it by channel hopping one Friday evening, lo & behold a whole section for campers & caravans...then watched it for the new 4 weeks. Real interesting stuff..& we learnt quite a bit being VIRGINS etc. We hope to be on the road by next April with "Bunty Bedford" !!!!...our 340, who is have the full works makeover !!!! REGARDS Rod & Di PARKER.

Colin Birch Admin Posts : 4277 Location : Pontypridd, South Wales Status : Offline	Hi Davo I've seen bits of pimp my ride. They go a little bit OTT for my liking. I'm not sure if installing goldfish tanks in a car is a good idea :/ It's about time I saw that van of yours on the road. - after all you are only a few miles from me and even closer to where I work - until it shuts at Xmas ---------------------- Colin Birch - CF-UK Admin Pontypridd, S.Wales The Bedford CF Web Site http://www.cf-uk.co.uk

Colin Birch Admin Posts : 4277 Location : Pontypridd, South Wales Status : Offline	Hi Davo I work at South Wales Transformers (bottom of the bypass to roundabout, 1st left, 1st right (towards candle works) and 1st left again). It's closing as FKI, the owners, want to transfer all production to it's Loughborough site. All the machinery has been sold to a firm in abu dhabi Looks like Switchgear will be staying at the site for a few more years though. ---------------------- Colin Birch - CF-UK Admin Pontypridd, S.Wales The Bedford CF Web Site http://www.cf-uk.co.uk

Colin Birch Admin Posts : 4277 Location : Pontypridd, South Wales Status : Offline	Hi Davo The only people I know from Switchgear are Malcom & Stewart from maintenance. Up until a few weeks ago I was night shift at Transformers so never got to wonder around Switchgear. ---------------------- Colin Birch - CF-UK Admin Pontypridd, S.Wales The Bedford CF Web Site http://www.cf-uk.co.uk
