Bertha

This is my Renault Master T35 camper. '88 I got Bertha on ebay, had to fly to Edinburgh to get her and drive her the 500 odd miles back home! My friends decided I had really lost the plot this time! lol She got her name from a kids programme which had a machine they used to put rubbish in and it would makes all these weird & wonderful noises and produce something useful.

Well, as she is so old and noisy that is why I gave her the name.

Hi Lynn

She looks fine to me!

I finally named our Hymer this weekend-"Humphrey" after Humphrey Cushion from Hickory House, as he's grey and white just like Mr Cushion. (Always thought Humphrey a little strange but after watching clips on the internet-the whole program was warpped!)

Thanks everyone. I had her nearly 3yrs now and we have had quite a few trips. Always leave early for our camping trip to Scilly and have a few stops on the way to Penzance. Liam (now 14) is too big to share the only double bed so I have adapted the front seats to make a bed. Although I have a Fiamma awning that is going to make way for a drive away one.

She has a 'Surfstream RC Conversion' and the layout is so well thought out as there is masses of storage, loo/shower room, cooker fridge etc. This is my 'retirement' home. Can't wait!!

Off to Stranraer in her tomorrow, just hoping I don't have problems as since they drained the tank to do some welding last year I have had trouble starting her

Looking forward to meeting up with some of you sometime.

Lyn
