And the low bridges.
Must take a while to get anywhere, but I suppose that when you get there you've got everything with you.

hey, least you don't have to go very far when you've left your keys or your cell phone 'at home'
Hope the ankle repairs quick (if it's recent. if this is an old pic, then disregard that last comment, and this bit, as it's probably already healed.. ha! get it? healed..)

No room for them, since it has a 3 lane bowling alley & 9 hole golf course. :banana:

Waiting for someone to tell me why that thing is usefull. All ya need is a bike, a tent, couple changes of clothes, a few tools such as an hatchet and a shovel, Modern higene requires a tooth brush toothpast at minimum and your set for a week. you can either go to a grocery store and buy food or hunt it yourself if you really want to go hard.
(pt for some of it)

Is this is what happens when Donald Trump drops out and becomes a nomad...
Impressive but I would not want to park it in a camping ground.. But then it's bigger than some camping grounds... Man! What a machine...

It is encouraging to see that some visionary has cut the abscess off the top of the North Island. Such a policy would win a few votes at this year's election...

What sort of licence do you need for that? That thing is enormous! Probably costs as much as a small house I reckon, which it is. All you need is a plot with a nice garden, and a rectangular concrete slab in the middle, and you could park and have the "white picket fence" life too...

well I must confess having one and a half kids in a house truck was enough for me, cabin fever and all!, but that is a seriously sized bus, but I still wouldn't like to live with my six kids in it even so, no matter how big a house bus is it is never big enough!!!

I was thinking 6 kids and a dog in a bus would be a bit much...then I remembered living with 22 others in a old London double decker touring Europe...now that WAS too much.
(too much beer mostly, except in wine regions)
