    Bumper interior finished!

    September 9, 2020 in Australia ⋅ ☁️ 17 °C

    Beautiful sunny day today.
    Rhyll came with her dog for a walk with Emily at 9am.
    Lacey and I went for a lovely walk around the lake.

    Read until the girls got back.
    And then Rhyll left and Emily did some work.

    Then we headed to that special shop in Woopi to get curtains to divide Bumper’s front driving section from the living area.
    These were block out curtains and came in the most beautiful pale grey and white.
    We could not have got better colouring if we tried.

    Then to Burger Box again.
    Burgers for lunch at the table at Teabag Corner.
    Then off to Mitre 10 for dowel for the curtain rods.

    We haven’t got a saw.
    The young workman in the park agreed to saw the dowel to the correct length for us.
    Three cuts and we were set.

    Up went the curtains in the bus.
    They look fantastic.
    Then we took the insulated silver sun shield from inside the windscreen of Bumper, laid it on the next curtain and with 2 sided tape managed to exactly cover both sides.
    Back on the inside of the windscreen that went.

    Then 2 rods, one above each side window of the cabin.
    Curtains attached to those.
    Voila... total block out and sun protection for the whole front cabin which, in turn makes the whole bus cooler.
    And it looks great!!!!!

    Long walk over the creek in the sun.
    Chat to our lovely neighbour under my green sun shelter ...about vans.

    Dinner.
    Steak and veges.
    Started to rain slightly.
    Rain forecast all day tomorrow.

    Bed.
    Blogging.

    Great day!
