We do one of the advantages of keeping it at home although we can't at the moment because the covers are still on and won't be coming off untill we go away at the end of June

Mine's in storage but it's only ten minutes drive away so sometimes on a sunny day I'll go up there with a book and a flask of coffee and sit in it for a couple of hours. Unfortunately the storage site rules don't allow me to sleep in it or I would!

we sit in sometimes, when we first got it we had loads of people come round and have tea and biscuits in the van. My friend came round the other night and we went and sat in the van and drank a bottle of wine. I'm sure the neighbours think we are strange but I dont care and often feel like waving at them.
