Well here are the pics at last!

Was 82 miles door to door and the Sankey really towed well on the motorway at just below 60 mph, didn't want to risk any quicker to be honest. The good news was that nothing fell off Thumbs Up Even my wind deflectors worked well keeping the 'pop-out' doors nice and tight Smile

My brothers turned up after their walk, and one stayed, so the trailer/tent took the combined weight of 30+ stone and I was glad to find that it didn't collapse in the ni

Here's the 1st Pic, the peaks in the background are "Pen-Y-Fan' and 'Corn Du' - not sure what the others camping there thought of my set-up, not sure if I managed to blend in Laughing

Really happy with my Hannibal awning (Cheers Beanie Thumbs Up ), I had some spare canvas from my jeep days, and managed to attach it to the awning, worked really (Not that I needed any rain protection) - so is ready now for Chepstow and those October rains Smile

Few more pics - SWMBO still thinks it looks likes something out of a shanty town Shocked

So I think I'm sort of done with the build for now - I'm sure there's more I can do, but besides a few tweaks I'm going to live with it - Not sure how waterproof it is, so may work on this once I see how I get on.

Storage worked well, used plastic storage boxes and two stacked on top of each other just fit inside with a cm to spare, so going to stick with these and not build a roller draw system

So that's about it for now Smile

Cheers Thumbs Up

Looking good but don't rest on your laurels, you can always improve. Self propelled is the way forward.....
