So you may have picked
up on the fact our campervan is called Betty in some earlier blogs. We felt we had to name the van as this is our
home for most of the 8 weeks we are in NZ, but didn’t really get around to
giving her a name until we were in Oz the other week. One day in the car Mrs M had said ‘what
should we call the campervan?’ ‘Betty’
said I, and that was pretty much it.
Now as we have to
spend most of our time traveling, eating, sleeping etc in Betty we also
decided that we should have some ‘van rules’ to adhere to.
Some of these have
come from tips from other people, some from our own experience and others have
been added as we go along.
Betty’s
Rules
1.
Mrs
M is always right.

Betty
gets brushed inside every couple of days, and washed outside every week.
9.
There
is never a bad time for a cup of tea.
10. Cooking dinner is taken in turns but
both wash-up.
11. Where possible buy local and what’s
in season.
12. Always walk on the campsite before
parking to see how soft the ground is.
As we will no doubt
have missed some, feel free to suggest some more.
Mr & Mrs M
Do we get to see either some more photos of Betty (guided tour) or a video ??
