My condolences to you and your family during this sad and difficult time. ♥️

some things we found useful in our camper: washing line for shower to hang up wet jackets, blankets/throws to get cozy on an evening to save on power, door mat for outside, outside kitchen set up to cook outside, paperplates etc to save on water, board games/cards, first aid kit and washing up bowl so food waste doesnt go down the drain into tank. Have fun

@1964stanley 5 месяцев назад

I see that you had the ehu on you van, the cable should always be always fully unwind! If you don't the cable will get hot and catch fire only reason I'm say this is because I was a park warden many years ago and almost every day is had to ask people to not do it!! But have a good time in your camper van

@samanthafinch3438 5 месяцев назад

Boys; we’re caravanners and you can use the on board water for boiling the kettle for tea. We’ve drunk from our taps for over 15 years no problem. We do use bottled water in the fridge for drinking. Love the vlogs as always xx

Loving the vlogs. There's a toast setting on your airfryer, makes great toast, and even better cheese on toast mmm

@kts64 5 месяцев назад

We have a rangemaster cooker, & we have to keep the button in for awhile for to get the grill light, its like the gas takes awhile to catch to the grill ,

@tallactordude 5 месяцев назад

I think taking these short trips to start out with is an excellent idea, so you can at least get some problems diagnosed and fixed before you attempt a longer journey. Of course, on the next trip there’ll be a whole new set of problems to deal with, but I suppose that’s inevitable.

@gilscot100 5 месяцев назад

So funny….at the end of the vlog I started to yawn and Leigh started a second later. Not bored just has a busy day. Loved the vlog. So many wrinkles to iron out but you will get there. Over here (US) the hatch at the back of the big(ish) RV is called the Toy Garage…..toy meaning quad bike, normal bikes, electric bikes, dinghy etc.

@elainesayles4624 5 месяцев назад

noticed that when you hooked up you didnt unroll the hook up Entirely. Its best to unroll the hook up completely or you could end up with the wire setting on fire. We had a tourer and was told about this.

@alanedon7241 5 месяцев назад

Great stuff guys, ever watched the Radford family vlogs. They had a brand new van, and had loads of problems... Enjoy guys..loving it

@DannyDalimore 5 месяцев назад

The van is absolutely stunning! Loving following on your adventures. I need some tips from Nick as we need a new bathroom fitted xxx

@TheLodgeGuys 5 месяцев назад

Watch some RU-vid videos on it and do it yourself. Be great for your channel. Danny DIY 😂♥️

@DannyDalimore 5 месяцев назад

@@TheLodgeGuys I think I need to do it myself as the cost is crazy to have it fitted xxx

@lindaoconnor8298 5 месяцев назад

I think you should buy some corn on the cob prongs then holding them is easier also maybe buy a small waste caddy for collecting tea bags etc which will sit in the kitchen worktop. Love your van and look forward to more adventures.😊

@stephencoutu2674 6 месяцев назад

I am not a mechanic or electrician, no van life for me! LOL I will stick to my hotels on the beach.

@ladylaura8038 5 месяцев назад

It’s 10:30 am and I’m exhausted!! New to the channel and can’t wait to binge everything to catch up ❤🎉 enjoying the lovely world you’ve created 🥳💯🤩

@margotwelland2459 5 месяцев назад

So hoping your next trip is problem free with sunshine as just want to see you both relax. Add to your list foldable chairs and table to sit outside with cuppa or beer. Can you run carpet down the edge of secret door? 😊

@johnwilkes426 5 месяцев назад

Loved the emptying of the chemical toilet! When I had building works done they put a temporary toilet in the backyard which was inaccessable mostly on week days, so I had one which generally got emptied once a week. I look forward to seeing it emptied when it is fuller. You need a steady hand!

@Vivi-hj8jg 5 месяцев назад

Is there no end to what you can fix Nick Lee, you probably have the best husband ever and you are such a calm and level soul. Loving the new Van series too

@TheLodgeGuys 5 месяцев назад

I may start hiring him out as a DIY man

@ericaingram9747 5 месяцев назад

Me watching this vlog- and then having a nap. Nick and Lee literally completing a weeks worth of work in an afternoon. Feeling a little inadequate. 🤣

@aimeewilde1564 5 месяцев назад

Really enjoyed your last few videos! We’ve just put a deposit down for a motorhome (eeek) and it’s a minefield… So much to learn about van life!!

@sonyamorrissey3621 5 месяцев назад

Ahhh really enjoyed this vlog I'd absolutely love that now just waking up in different places, like leigh said you wouldn't think your in a van.. it looks so cosy. I bet at night it's so snug and cosy

@deborahr2236 5 месяцев назад

Teething problems, it will all get sorted and you will have many fantastic adventures and it will all be worth it it ❤️

@brewandbants864 5 месяцев назад

We used to run a campsite yes people leave ehu cables when they go out and also reverse into pitch as grass allocated to pitch usually goes on the left ...also we have done van builds and yes issues arise but the memories you make are amazing ...don't get stressed what will happen will happen stress won't change that .. followed you two for many years looking forward to this year's vlogs in Taylor x

@andypownall1 5 месяцев назад

For the hole in the roof for the door bolt use a plastic pipe plumbing insert they come in various sizes and metal or plastic this will create a nice finish

@andrewwisker6918 5 месяцев назад

Loving the longer vlogs 😀😀😀

@TheSylviad 5 месяцев назад

The poo controversy had me in stitches. Thanks for the laugh 😂

@annitareagan4654 5 месяцев назад

Love van life vlogs! All the troubles and hard work will be worth it once you start having all your adventures. Sure its all more involved than hopping a plane somewhere but the adventure is going to be so different and the challenge is all part of the journey. Although Nick I am concerned your gonna end up with a concussion from whacking your head on that cabinet in middle of the nite. 😉

@lesliereynolds4492 5 месяцев назад

We had a kitchen cupboard like that. Hit it many times till I taped a sponge or something soft onto it. It could put your eye out, very dangerous. Loving your trip.

@klb2045 5 месяцев назад

It was great to see you out in the van ..... getting ready for the big adventures to come!! I knew you wouldn't be able to sleep that way but it's great that you are being honest and upfront about your experience!! Can wait to see your next outing, love you guy's ❤❤ x x

@TheLodgeGuys 5 месяцев назад

@stephencoutu2674 6 месяцев назад

So much work to restore the van and there are still many problems, who inspected the van and said it was a good choice?

@TheLodgeGuys 6 месяцев назад

It will be worth it in the end hopefully

@naomiparcell 5 месяцев назад

We bought a brand new caravan and our electrics went out the first trip. Things happen

@dianeprice5798 5 месяцев назад

Amazing vlog guys,and really enjoying your campervan adventure , looks really nice camp site you were in and it was really good to see a clean shower and toilet block, hope you both enjoy your adventure in Taylor. Thanks for sharing have a good evening 🤗

@sherryperez8228 5 месяцев назад

I love watching you both. ❤️ Thank you. BTW I do my toast in my air fryer.

@TheLodgeGuys 5 месяцев назад

Thanks for watching 👍♥️😊

@sparkleypegs8350 5 месяцев назад

Could you cut a hinged, closable, peep window in the feature wall to see into the front cab and out the front window? It would be handy to be able to see out the front sometimes.

@gemmaripley2810 5 месяцев назад

Hey guys you should get a toaster for the van 😊 xx

@richard.cook. 5 месяцев назад

Loads of wires maybe overloading. Nick a pressure washer sometimes can effect the electric like you mentioned with me it plays he'll with my reverse sensors. Enjoy guys.👍

@MattBowles-wn2fq 5 месяцев назад

Hi Leigh and Nick great to see you using the van it's been a long time coming. I don't know if you noticed on the radio in the van when you had the issue if you look as the brown wires it looks like they have been compressed maybe that's caused the issue, just thought I'd mention it.

@Lisawilliams-b2c 5 месяцев назад

Great vlog guys, can’t wait for more van life vlogs, love how nick always has solutions to any problems u guys have 👍❤️ xx

@elliecolston6988 5 месяцев назад

My mum recommends cherry blossom black shoe polish for the bumper, it’s comes up jet black!

@ryankrajewski635 5 месяцев назад

How come you haven’t removed the middle seat in the front? Surely if you removed that you’d be able to get to and from the back with ease?

@mandyedavis7978 5 месяцев назад

A few years ago we went on a caravan holiday to Brean Sands in Somerset and we ended up leaving really early in the morning for home as it got really windy, so much so it felt like the roof was going to blow off. The whole idea of having to empty the chemical toilet puts me off the thought of going on a camper van holiday as I would the one who always had to empty it 😝

@TheLodgeGuys 5 месяцев назад

Emptying the loo isn't as bad as you think in the end (I just make nick do it 😂)

@JennyS54 5 месяцев назад

Fabulosa little getaway, 😊a few minor adjustments in the van nothing to fret over, everything’s fixable, your air fryer should have a Toast or Grill button on it for doing your toasts. Was a fantastic vlog, loveddddd it, love ya’s ❤❤

@TheLodgeGuys 5 месяцев назад

Thank you ❤️💙💜❤️💙💜

@julieirvine8506 5 месяцев назад

Ack better to get these little problems and sort them along the way, was nothing major so hopefully all is good now, campsite looked great as did the van...cant wait to see the next location ❤

A canopy would be nice idea? Especially in the summer, sitting outside with a bbq on your chairs 🥰

@andyjnuttall 5 месяцев назад

Your gas engineer is responsible for the appliances he passed if he did a simple test (which he needs to do) to check that the thermo couple works and wont keep on letting gas pass if there is a flame failure! he would of realised there is a problem! Did he really check your van for safety or did he just give a certificate? Keep up the good work lads enjoy your videos!

@amvive08 5 месяцев назад

Nick could the radio system have been doing an update?

@craigzwlewis5818 5 месяцев назад

You guys need a caravan sink draining board.

@Chrissyhappy 5 месяцев назад

I got a brand new Seat. It was a nightmare! The radio went first. Then the sat nav. Then major error warnings and told me to stop driving. That happened three times. They agreed to take it back in the end. Two weeks at a time they took it in for. 😮 ps. When I first got a van, I found people on the campsites were more than happy to help with any issues like grey waste etc. They’re a helpful lot! Often they give you spare bits etc.😊

@TheLodgeGuys 5 месяцев назад

Lol. No heads hit so far

@julieturner5281 5 месяцев назад

When my partner changed the radio in our jeep it drained all the power, the battery kept going flat , it was a nightmare, changed back to original radio all issues were solved . Might not be the same issue but seems oddly familiar .

@TheLodgeGuys 5 месяцев назад

It suddenly started working again and been fine ever since so we think it may have been the water from the jet wash

@offordtac 5 месяцев назад

Sorry bit random but whilst watching Leigh hang the washing I noticed he was pulling out whites and darks from the same wash, my whites go grey if I put them on with the darks.

@jobs1962 5 месяцев назад

Loving your channel, I am a newbie, suggested to me by Ben and David on Cruise With (we love our cruises too ☺️) 🥰 We also have a brand new caravan that we have gone away in twice now for long weekends, the list grows of things we need each time we use it 😩🙄 We have a box of disposable gloves kept in our van to use when emptying the loo cassette 🥴 Also, grab some non slip drawer/cabinet liners and rubber containers to put everything in, in your cupboards to stop things moving/rolling about 👍 Keep up the great works guys, you are fab to watch and very funny how you interact with each other ❤️🥰😘😘😘😘

@TheLodgeGuys 5 месяцев назад

Thanks so much for checking us out. It's much appreciated. We still have lots of organising in the van to do each time we go away we think of improvents we can make ♥️

@paulg0170 5 месяцев назад

You need to get used to it first and learn. Thanks for the great video.

@elainesayles4624 5 месяцев назад

Nick, Leigh have you thought about getting a pop up toilet tent for your road trips. It would give you more room when using toilet

@TheLodgeGuys 5 месяцев назад

Hadn't thought about it no. Will see how we go with it inside for now 😂♥️

@CelticJ 5 месяцев назад

Do you think you will quickly get sick of the van life? I would like the thought of it but the practicality of it would drive me insane.

@lesliereynolds4492 5 месяцев назад

You need to have a logbook for the camper sites so in case you want to stop by a year or two later. Write their phone number too in case you go on a holiday.

@TheLodgeGuys 5 месяцев назад

We have a van life journal where we are logging all those details 👍♥️❤️

@stevenpluff6481 5 месяцев назад

Those problems will get taken care of and then y'all will be ready for an extensive road trip. It's better to find these problems now rather than when y'all are traveling through Europe

@mariebrawn3180 5 месяцев назад

It's great that you've stayed in the van for a couple of nights. Loved watching both vlogs. I reckon you will keep finding these odd bits that need adding,fixing and best you are sorting those now rather than in a different country. Well done both of you

@Ingrid-pg1gs 5 месяцев назад

Sorry it didn't quite go perfectly. At least it gives NIck so more to do on the van 😂
