Goodbye Lincoln,Hello TT

 With only a few weeks to go to our week away in Scotland to our horror we discover Lincoln is unwell.The dreaded damp has appeared.The hubby says it would be an easy fix but we are short of time.Our holiday fund would be compromised and with the rising cost of fuel ,the decision is made to say goodbye to Lincoln and look for an alternative.Lincoln is sold onto a lovely couple who are aware of his problem,they have dealt with damp before and promise to look after him.

After searching for alternatives we decide on a trailer tent,we loved the canvas awning and knew the benefits of canvas.We would still be sleeping off the ground and have space not only to move around in but to keep it at home.

We found one for sale locally had a viewing and brought it home.

Now after selling off our caravan gear that was no longer required we had surplus pennies to purchase the side bars for storage enabling us to manouvre the TT into our back garden.

Boy is it big,when fully opened we could of had a party inside.However there was work to be done to make it ours and enjoy the space.Firstly the hubby fitted an EHU followed by a water tap.Carpets and sofa were snapped up in local camping shops.Extra pegs and Delta's were purchased this is a lot of canvas to protect.

Finally we were ready,just one thing remained a quick trial away locally to check  if it's fully waterproof.
