Recycled hubcap clock

I found graces broken spongebob clock whilst cleaning her room the other day and the thought popped into my head about using the clock movement and putting it in one of our old hubcaps at work, so the next day I drilled a hole in the centre of the hubcap and stuck the movement through and ended up with a super cool clock :)

I may make a few more with the rusty hubcaps and see what they look like on the wall :)

2nd drive of the year :)

On Sunday we made the most of the nice weather and popped down to Eastney to chill on the beach of a while, there's nothing better than having a nice cold drink with your feet up looking out at the sea! On the way there we passed to other green VW camper and gave them a wave.

When grace got bored we popped up to Portsdown hill to have a kick around for a bit whilst looking over the city, next time I will be more organised and take some lunch with us and chill for a bit longer. We saw a blue and a white beetle flying along across the top of the hill but I was to slow to catch them up. 

I hope next weekend is just as nice so I can enjoy the green machine once again :)

1st drive of 2013

We took Arnie out for his first drive of the year yesterday, Grace was outside getting excited when I went to pick her up as she saw Arnie driving up the road, she was more excited to see him than me lol.

We took him for a little spin along Southsea seafront then we headed up to portsdown hill then along to Bedhampton to go bowling. The green machine drove lovely with no problems at all, I still have to give him his service that I always do at the beginning of the year.
We are looking forward to more days out in him this year.

Arnie's new home for a while

I parked Arnie up in his new home today, now I got some dry storage so I can replace the roof vent and fit a new passenger door. I'm looking forward to the show season to start, can't wait to get out and about in the green machine again.
