It is fantastic Mike and I love what she doe's with the bell tents, I just don't think John would let me do something like that with our dandy

i doubt that very much lol I don't think John would be able to stop you really

Oh I don't know Eilis, we had a couple of holes in our Old Dandy cover and I stuck large pink flowers over them and added a few more ( quite a lot more actually ) to balance it out ............ he really wasn't happy towing it

aw bless his heart lol just give him a few beads and a long wig and pretend he's a hippy

That's exactly what he said

I thought that all Dandiers were 'Glampers' really. There's a considerable level of luxury even at a basic level, when compared to ordinary tenting. Having said that I couldn't imagine adding ornamentation of the type displayed, although I could imagine Helen setting to with paint brushes and suitable paints, once on site, to make her rig even more 'individual'. I suppose pvc would take patterns painted on and could also be cleaned for a home journey. Just think Helen, John wouldn't be embarrassed towing and you could be happy on site. I'd love to see some examples. Pity I'm not artistic enough to try it myself (On someone else's Dandy of course.)

oh steve now you've planted that in her head, who knows what helen and vicki will get up to now lol

What gets me is the space you must need to take all that gear,i actually love the idea of it just couldn't be bothered.

i know i love the stuff this woman does to her tents but even i balk at the effort and amount of stuff

yeah you couldn't do that for a short weekend or you'd finish setting up and have to start packing

Sounds like fun to me, some wash off felt tip's and a few water based paint's but I would be in trouble if it rained

You see, I knew Helen would be up for it. Now it's just a case of her finding herself away in the Dandy, with paints & brushes and when it's not raining or going to rain...... Er, not hoing to happen, is it? That's the problem of lving in a country with no climate, just weather!

ooh I don't know, get some glow in the dark paint and do it over the winter camp, be dark lots so you could always find your Dandy lol how cool would that be only a small risk of snow
