Hey! I'm Darran, I've been living on the road full-time in a motorhome since April 2017. I started off in a 2004 Fiat based Swift Sundance and have recently upgraded to a 2008 Renault based Burstner Delfin. It has the layout I was looking for, the space and most importantly, the payload!
I've learn loads since going full-time time and want to share the good, the bad and the ugly, as well as some hints and tips along the way to help anyone out there thinking of doing the same.
Have a good look around and please feel free to leave a comment & get involved :-)
Surprised you can park urban so easily. New here and considering getting into van life. Ideally I’d like to stealth camp and convert out a sprinter, but was concerned as to how discreet and stealthy I could be - don’t want to be constantly kicked out of car parks/suburb streets etc. Now you’re doing it in an evidently clear motor home, maybe it’s easier than I first thought lol
Little tip to yourself and others interested if you want RU-vid premium. I pay I think only £1.50 a month for it and that’s by setting it up on a vpn set to Argentina (I think there’s even cheaper countries), you need a vpn to start sure (does cost money but not as much as YT premium and has other benefits + there are free ones). Just set vpn to Argentina, go through the sign up process on google, you need a travel/international card like revelout/starling/monzo etc but they’re easy to get. It also requires an address - I just used a British embassy in Argentina lol. It’s pretty simple and you don’t need the vpn at all after that. Just a little money saving tip for those interested
I honestly wish you every bit of success in life man. Honestly, you come across as such a genuine, nice person, someone who would be friends with absolutely anyone. hope you're good man :)))
Hi Darren, next time you are in Somerset give me a shout and I'll show you around Wells cathedral as I'm a guide there. I tried to email but it keeps rejecting your address. Pete
That's a blast from the past. I haven't been to Ely Cathedral (the Ship of the Fens) since I was at school more than 40 years ago. When that stage isn't there, there's a maze on the floor that takes the same number of steps to walk round as it would take to reach the ceiling. Wicken Fen nearby is beautiful.
Small rant coming. So glad you took your cap off when you finished the tour. I’m afraid that I’m old school and men don’t wear hats in church. Apart from that loved the video.
Just up the road (A10) you have dents farm shop it also has a fishery worth looking at and look up woodlakes a few miles up from there there is also on yhe A10 near dents a campsite with fishing on site as well
Let me know when you are back in Ely and I will give you a guided tour! We live about 200 metres from Cathedral. Look up Sainsbury's Garfield the Cat for the previous cat that used to visit the Ely store.
Across the grass from the chertheral is Oliver Cromwell 's home and museum just passed the waterloo Canon. The river is some time's used to train the Cambridge rowers
It's easy to see why our ancestors subscribed to religion, especially when monumental structures like this existed that likely dominated the landscape, they definitely inspire a sense of awe and wonderment with how grandiose they are. Lincoln Cathedral is cool too. Cheers for the video
I so look forward to, & thoroughly enjoy your videos. Your happy, cheery outlook on everything makes me happy watching. If everyone in the world had your demeanour just think what a wonderful place it would be. If you could bottle up your enthusiasm & happiness and sell it, you’d be a millionaire my friend. I also enjoy your fishing videos, as I’m an angler myself. You brighten up my, & I’m sure thousands of other people’s day. Thank You.👍🏻
Come down to Wells (Somerset) and we will show you around and there's an awesome Cathedral and can line you up with some local cheese tours. Actually, come in September and we can take you to Frome 'Cheese' show 😁 Love your positive vids 👍👍
I'm with you Daz, not a religious person, but can definitely appreciate the immense scale of craftsmanship of a Cathedral. Lincoln Cathedral and Castle are worth a visit. Classic movies, Convoy, Smokey and the Bandit or for a little bit of slop, The Lake House. Tash sent the cat i reckon 😂 😺
I grew up not too far from Ely. I spent a lot of my time fishing around the Fen, particularly Ramsey Forty Foot. So worth checking out the fishing if you return.
If you believe in Angels you also then believe in a place called Heaven and believe in the creator of heaven and earth the Almighty God. Angels are Gods creation just like you and me. These angelic beings Angels were created to serve God's purposes. Angels serve the people God saves, delivers messages , wage spiritual battle, they worship God to serve, to execute judgement, to aid transmission of Gods word ,also Angels are used anyway God pleases. We are not to worship Angels but to worship God alone. Can I ask you a question if you died today will you go to Heaven ? There will be a time that we will all face Gods judgement. God is righteous and Holy and we are all sinners. In a court of Law if you commit a crime and you was found guilty you will be punished and be sent to jail. Gods prison is Hell and because we are all sinners we will be found guilty. The 10 commandments is where we see if you have committed any sin’s or not. Have you ever lied? Have you lust over someone? Have you ever taken something that was not yours? Have you ever said omg or used Jesus Christ name as a curse word ? These are only 4 of Gods commandments and if you have said yes to any of these questions I’m not judging you but on judgement day God will judge you and will find you guilty for these sins and will be sent to eternal punishment. The good news is Jesus Christ came and paid the price for your sins He took the punishment we deserve . He died on the cross and If you believe in your heart that Jesus died and was raised on the third day and repent and ask in prayer for forgiveness of your sins you will be saved. Which means on judgement day because you have believed and trusted in Jesus and have faith in Him and have been forgiven,on judgement day God will let you go and you will be saved from going to eternal punishment. Jesus was sacrificed to save you and everybody else because of the love He has for us John 3:16 For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. The gospel is not God hatefully saying turn to me or I'll send you to Hell the gospel is God's mercy and Grace saying you're already on your way to Hell turn to me and I’ll save you. Romans 10: 9 If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. Download the gate way bible app and read the gospel of John and you can learn how Jesus came to save you. Please watch a video called , JESUS saved me from HELL 🔥!! ⚠️ Warning!

Local tales tell of an underground passage from the cathedral to the Kings Arms pub in St Mary’s Street ? The stone for the Cathedral was from a quarry in Barnack , Northamptonshire and was paid for by paying with Eels ? Lol😂
