Awesome advice thank you

100% bud, great advice...

Ah how exciting.... I bet you are counting down the days!!!

I bet the new year cant come quick enough can it.. ! Always good to stock up on essentials too.. Stay safe...

Cheers matey, I think its a Yale but I bought it aaaaggges ago 🤣 and the branding is no longer showing

Ah thanks mate, that means a lot. Always learning, so much stuff I have yet to learn too and when I do ill post a video of it! Happy adventures! :) 🤙

You'll love it, love seeing you updates on Insta :)

Cheers Colin.... by the way, great name :) 🤙

Ah thank you... Just finishing off our latest vid and will be uploading it tomorrow :)

Awesome mate, welcome aboard!!

How ace that we have you watching our little adventures in the UK all the way at the other side of the planet. Olivia's mind = blown!! Enjoy the build up to getting your van, you'll love it. Use the time you have npw to find some great "go back to" spots for when you do get your van. I'm excited for you!!!

@@Yorkshirepoptopadventures Cheers mate. I’m so excited about getting the van. Lot’s of awesome places to go in Australia. Just worried there might be a delay to van shipment as COVID seems to be taking off again in Europe. Fingers crossed.

Great advice thank you so much

Hiya Chris, glad you have learned lots from my vids. I had the leather roof and VW badge fitted at the same time as the pop top by the company that fitted the pop top (it was an option)

yup, that's what we do too

🤣🤣🤣

Hiya bud, thank you. So basically, before I started my RU-vid channel I built the van and I wish I had done a van build video. I'll probably do another van so watch this space. I just forgot to video the drawer build (still quite new to this RU-vid stuff 🤣🤣) Yes its a rock and roll bed M1 tested, the latest video I have uploaded shows me setting the bed up too ;).

Ah thats amazing, what a happy day it must have been for you guys. Im excited for you... it won't be long before you randomly check out of the window (morning and evening 😂) The bungee makes a huge difference (also opening the sliding door when you close the pop top makes things easier too. Here is where I bought the bungee www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B07MTNTNQ6/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_fabc_dfzUFbZ91417H

That bungee strap is a great idea. Fitted mine today and it is a must have in my opinion. Thanks for the info.

Hey, thanks Chris. The pop top bed and base was from C&H pop tops in Huddersfield! They have mixed reviews online but I had a great service from them! ;)

Hiya Gary, I got the seat cover from Amazon but sadly the seller i bought it from is no longer available. I was asked about this the other day and tried to look for a similar one but I can't. As soon as it comes up for sale again ill update the description bud....

Awesome advice thanks so much.... it would make a massive difference

I'm using Giff Gaff on an automatic monthly payment (pay as you go) and what I don't spend goes towards another phone, seems like the best option. Works well and had no issue with it so far bud!

@@Yorkshirepoptopadventures Thanks mate really appreciated

Hiya, thank you! 🍺 🤙 I got the curtain rail here www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B01LX0JSNK/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_glt_fabc_A53DQNHDK8GWSBAEQP60

@@Yorkshirepoptopadventures cheers 🍻 m8 thank you we definitely getting 1

Awesome mate, thanks... The curtain was just an amazon purchase, I just searched for black out curtains and the size (nearest) to the gap i have in my van :)

@@Yorkshirepoptopadventures thanks 👍

Ah, I should have read through the comments :) Located the info, ta

Ey up David, sorry for the late response, some comments get lost and I miss them :( glad you got it sorted in the end...

Hey that's awesome, Bridlington centre is "interesting" at night 😂😂! But the south beach is lovely and a must visit place with your van is Fraisethorpe, you can pretty much park on the beach for the day (well, about 1ft off the beach). Sewerby hall and gardens is lovely Hornsea pottery is nice Roseberry topping (a bit further north) is worth the walk Not many off the beaten track areas on the east coast as it's quite a popular place... Saltburn is gorgeous and there is a park up at the top of the hill near a pub ;) Enjoy your stay and don't forget to visit the Yorkshire dales national park ;)

Thats ace... glad to be of assistance. The bungee cord comes in one length I think. If in doubt buy the longest one and cut it down. I did have to pull the cord and stretch it before tieing it off so that the pressure pulls in the canvas properly

Also purple pans.... Epic!!!

Hiya mate, the tracker is still working perfectly. The charge lasts about 30 days so I just charge it now and then when I am actually in the van. I used it the other day when the wife was picking me up, I knew where it was and when to be ready... Awesome bit of kit (even if it is a pain to set up 🤣)

@@Yorkshirepoptopadventures brilliant, thank you 👍🏼

I have had it running for 3hrs (not needed to run it any longer) but I'll do a test to see how long it will go for

Hey buddy, it's from amazon. It's called a pop top bungee, it literally wraps around the canvas and ties at the back. Then, it pulls the canvas in when you put the pop top down. Also remember to have a window or door open when putting the pop top down ;)

Hi Ian, I would say that sleeping bags are way more convenient for shorter vacations (we wouldn't cart the huge quilt out for a few nights away etc). However, if we go away for any length of time the duvet and sheets would come with us for that home from home feeling!

@@Yorkshirepoptopadventures Hi Ian, we use a duvet in or van we find it takes no more room then 2 single or 1 dbouble sleeping bags , but each to their own

Yes and no, it does darken the van but it also makes it cosy too... in summer the doors and windows are open so letting in a lot of light... its totally subjective though, if I did another one I'd probably chose a lighter colour

@@Yorkshirepoptopadventures well white van is easy to pair neutral colours.... Harder with cherry red...

Hiya matey, ideally it needs to be secured and with the cap on but we just keep it in the back wedged in. When camped up we take it out and leave it outside :)

Hiya, they are just from Amazon, I searched black out curtains and bought the size that best suited my van, they are a tad short but still stop people seeing in :)

Sadly not bud, I haven't been on the radio since my music days... Thanks for your comment though, it means a lot! Stay safe

Hiya buddy, thanks so much.

Hiya buddy, its here www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B006J23MHQ/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_MR1LFbSZXHXY5 make sure you get the right length for your van (there is a menu to choose when purchasing)

Yorkshire Pop Top Adventures I eventually bought one and use a coloured blanket that matches my vans upholstery, brilliant!

Hiya Liam, I got the badge and transporter letters from ebay, sadly the store i bought them from doesn't have them any more but I'm sure somebody else will sell them. ;)

They are anti scratch mats by a company called Pro Cook - Here is a link for them bud www.amazon.co.uk/ProCook-Felt-Anti-Scratch-Pan-Protectors/dp/B071GNTH65

🤣🤣🤣 I tend to waffle 🤣🤣🤣

Hiya bud. I built it from scratch, batons and 4mm board plus some heavy duty runners. I'll try explain in more detail in my next video ;)

@@Yorkshirepoptopadventures cheers, be nice , look forward to it.

Ah cheers mate, that's awesome! I'll be honest, I didn't know bodem made different sized cups 🤣🤣🤣

Oh maybe they don't then haha I'll check them out, cheers.

Hiya buddy, I don't think RU-vid shows links in the comments... Could you message me on Facebook or insta bud

Hey Steve, I got them from Kiravans matey ;)

@@Yorkshirepoptopadventures Cheers bud. Got some now 😁

Hi John, jts 70 Watts ;)

Ooops sorry, here is the link - they are cheaper and always in TK Max though so I'd check there first.. www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B002ECY206/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_lN9JFbHRH11EK?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1

@@Yorkshirepoptopadventures Thanks 👍🏻

Hiya mate, I bought it from TK Max bud so sadly i don't have a link for it :(

@@Yorkshirepoptopadventures OK thanks Colin

Hiya, it was fitted by C&H Pop Tops in Huddersfield... They did a great job and in just one day too ;)

@@Yorkshirepoptopadventures do you know what the ceiling material is called.. Is it leatherette... Just got seat back hooks great idea... Thanks for speedy reply

@@linoleumbonypart385 Im not 100% sure, its definitely not leather though. I think they just called it Bentley Stitching at C&H ;)

@@Yorkshirepoptopadventures oh yes heard the word Bentley used before... Thanks

Its still going bud, we just uploaded a new video (Wetherlam) - Trying to organise another trip out at the moment... ;) Watch this space and also keep watching Pop Top Adventures space too haha

@@Yorkshirepoptopadventures ohh good, glad to know the dream team are still together :) I'll pop over and watch you both (I've been away for a while) :) atb mate

We have just uploaded a new vid (about 3 weeks ago) Wetherlam, still going strong and trying to organise another trip out ;)

Hey matey, I got the curtains from Kiravans ;)

@@Yorkshirepoptopadventures The blackout curtains on the pole for behind the seats to separate the cab from the front of the van?

Ah I thought you meant the other curtains.... amzn.to/3cXMc8H here you go matey

@@Yorkshirepoptopadventures Cheers amigo. great videos BTW

Hiya bud, its the XL :)

@@Yorkshirepoptopadventures thanks for replying that’s great get my van back next week, also where did you get your net pocket holder things….love the bids by the way keep them coming ❤️

Cheers buddy, that's really kind I got the nets from Mega Van Mats in Pudsey

Haha sorry about that, it was one of my first videos, all rectified now though 70 videos since :) Also sorry I made you spend loads of money 🤑🤑

Hey Anita, Sadly I don't think you can get hold of this particular one anymore :(

@@Yorkshirepoptopadventures thank you for your reply is there specific things that i should out for when shopping for a tracker

No problems, I just searched for one that took a SIM card that I didn't have to pay an annual subscription to. Much cheaper if you're just paying £5 per month for a rolling PAYG - also an app of some sort that can be accessed anywhere (just in case you lose your phone)
