- in this video I install my bed frames and have a covid delay of a few weeks as the Kung Flu strikes the family. that pretty well sums up the video, enjoy!
Lovely to hear you made it through
Thank you. It feels a bit like a new lease of life moving forward and that a huge weight has been lifted to know I was one of the lucky ones with mild symptoms. It seems such a lottery though as a friend of the family is fighting for life as we speak in hospital, he is 38, double jabbed and runs marathons. doesn't make any sense.....
Still here only got it after four years no vacation, and got it only once, my friends have all had all the jabs and had covit twice or three times one mate had all the jabs about five of them and had covit at least three times , and remember by the time you found out that you had it , you were still going to shops etc , giving it to others.
Only had it the once to my knowledge, and once was enough I think. horrid virus!
@@wiltshirecustomcamper7203 agreed.
Bloody love these videos , glad your ok now van looks great .
Thanks 👍
Was worried about you. Glad to see you are well and back at it.
Thanks buddy! As the holiday plans area complete bust now, will maybe try out the van in the UK somewhere for a 'test run'.
M8 really glad you and the family 👪 are getting better great to see and hear from you again another great video 📹 always enjoy them vans looking really brilliant well done me old mucker stay safe good advice about the jabs. 👍
Thank you very much, many Yuletide felicitations to you, or, as we were suppose to be heading off to Spain very soon for a golfing jolly but that is now a bust, Feliz Navidad!
@@wiltshirecustomcamper7203 I'm off to spain next Friday for xmas and the new year 😀 so feliz Navidad to you and your family 👪
@@sirbrian9404 You really know how to rub it in don't you :-) we decided to delay and I managed to convince Easyjet of an FOC change to Tenerife for October. Golf courses aren't as good as Malaga area, but we'll manage. have a great trip.
Super vous avez fait du bon boulot
Merci pour votre commentaire et pour avoir regardé la construction de la camionnette. hope that's right (using google translate) I might have just asked why you wear ladies underpants :-)
Glad your feeling better now
Thanks buddy. merry Christmas to you.
@@wiltshirecustomcamper7203 merry Christmas to you too 😊
Looking good
Thanks 👍
Hope you got our fourth booster!
I had noticed the delay on the video's. Glad you are all ok. I caught Covid very early on, before there were any vaccines. It was scary. It's like gargling from the moment you go to bed until you get up the next morning. I was like that for about 10 days and short of breath for a month afterwards. A year and a half later I'm still not back to normal. Plus my son caught Covid just after he went back to school in September and then I caught it again.
Oh cripes, twice? I glad you are OK and your son is well? I was hoping that being double jabbed and then getting it would 'super-charge' the antibodies and that would be that. So we all have Omicron to look forward to then....
@@wiltshirecustomcamper7203 I'm taking Vitamin D & C now. Because the virus mainly effects the lungs, the same way colds and flue cause chest infections, the Vitamin D helps to fight off the infection and speeds up recovery. The NHS actually uses Vit D to treat pneumonia in hospitals. It's a scientifically proved treatment. You need the Vitamin C to help your body absorb the Vitamin D. The second time I got the virus I bounced back VERY quickly. I've now got my son a chewable Vitamin D & C tablet. I found that info from a British GP that has a YT channel. Search YT for (dr campbell vitamin d)
@@drewhodge3820 Super tip! will take a look.
Hello! Sorry I'm trying to see how you've connected the beams in to the van body and if you've reinforced the van? What fixings did you use?
I got the Skorva brackets from Ikea to go with the beams, you can get them from customer service desk. I used rivnuts to fix them to the sides. hope that helps.
Hi, great vlog and a great idea to use the Ikea Skorva beams. How did you go about fitting them to the van itself ? It would be very helpful to pick your brains on this. We are just starting our build. 😊
Happy to answer any questions you may have. thanks for watching.
Thanks for your prompt reply. Do you actually show how you fitted the Skorva beams into the horizontal ribs of your van in an earlier video? If not, how did you fit them to the van? Regards Chris
Hey. Do you have a video of how you installed the ikea beams please?
the skorva beams have dedicated brackets available from ikea, i used rivnuts to fix them to the sides. hope that helps.
Hi Recently discovered your conversion vids, almost caught up. I have just bought a relay L4 H3 so will be borrowing some of your ideas, excellent vid on to vapour barrier or not i have been giving it a lot of thought your reasoning seems sound. Do you happen to know the weight of the "skorba beam" . One thing that did concern me was in the hand book it says "On all H3 versions the roof cannot be fitted with a carrying system" page 80, so was concerned about putting solar and vents on the roof, what are your thoughts on this given that you have put solar ect on.
Cheeers and keep up the good work
Skorva mid beams are 3.62kg each. On the roof thing, I think they are just covering their asses. why would they install roof rack mounts if the roof is a 'no go' area. I have seen plenty of videos of L4H3 conversions with loads of stuff on the roof, so personally, I would not worry about it. Reality is that the solar panels are very light weight in the big scheme of things as are the maxxfans. good luck with your build.
Great video, where did you get the aluminum beams?, ikea?, thank you
Yes, they are called 'Skorva', but you will need to go to customer services for the end brackets and blag you have lost yours in a house move or something.
Hi how wide is your mattress
standard UK double bed size.
7:54 I'm very fortunate to be triple vaccinated. Unfortunately my nephew who has an autoimmune disorder isn't allowed to have the vaccine. I'll let him know you think his a "bloody idiot"
Don't get your knickers in a twist, the comment is OBVIOUSLY for those who can and choose not to......
Please don't take offence, my comment relates to the small number that can and should be vaccinated and for whatever reason choose not to have it, thus putting themselves and others at risk, like premier league footballers for example! They deserve to spend some time in intensive care for their arrogance, not your nephew.
Nah not fair !
Was gonna subscribe but I’m an idiot apparently 😡😡😡😡
If, for whatever reason, you can't be vaccinated? fair enough and the comment does not apply to you, clearly. If on the other hand you are choosing not to, then you are putting others at risk and that, to my mind is 'bad form' and I'm entitled to my opinion. anyhow, thanks for watching and have a good Christmas.
