The Guf

I bought a new van the other day.

I say new, its 10 years old.

I was struggling with my project a bit as I was restricted to photographing stuff accessable from train lines. Fun though it was it meant a train journey then a whole days walking to another train station. Straying off track meant I would be stranded in the countryside...hence a vehicle was needed to open things up.

So I got a van, one I can sleep in the back of if need be. its a Citroen C15, here is a picture:




That isn't my actual van, just the style of van I got. Its a funny little thing but seems quite good. Just got to get some form of matress in the back so I can drive miles away and kip in it over night.

Its funny driving a van. I am used to cars. Vans are heavy, noisey, smelly but quite a lot of fun. Makes you feel your doing something important when driving one, even if you are not. And as it is a van - people get out your way more!

Hurrah for being mobile again. Haven't had a car for a few years and didn't really miss it, but now I have one again - I can see the benefits!!!
