Hi Janine. Regarding your cough, I had the same thing for years. Discovered it was acid reflux with vitamin C. Started taking MSM for my hair. The acid reflux disappeared along with the cough and my chronic back pain (I was subsequently signed off by both my Osteopath and the muscular skeletal clinic - both were ASTOUNDED by my sudden improvement!). Looked into MSM further and discovered it is good for all these things and many more! It's been a life changer for me. It really has.
LOVING everything about these videos: your humour, the great mix of van build and vanlife in general with the difficulties surrounding choice of parkups in storms (which we also experienced last week) &, again, your editing skills with superb choice of music. Good job 👍
Stealth door idea, if you make a nice clean cut out for the door, why not stick it onto the outside of the door you're going to install. Will save having to repaint the door and look like a removals van with overnight sleeping for a nice bit of stealth.
Great to see the the side door going in big thumbs up for that ,it looks to late now to convince you about the propex heater but ,the van is coming together nicely and is looking the part good vid cheers
So glad you are going for side door. Think your layout will look great and it is great to see how you all work together , really enjoying your adventure Thanks
Hi guys. Really like the way your new van is shaping up. Liam the terrible is a hard worker and knows what he's doing. Hope it all works out well for you. Keep safe guys.
A mate of mine got his single seat for his Relay from a scrap yard in France. It's a drivers one (as they on the wrong side of the road 😜) so extra comfy and much cheaper!
Whilst you are waiting for your new van to be built, it looks fab so far. I could highly recommend packing cubes (amazon)for easy access for clothes I got fed up everything falling out and stuffing them back in. Empty cushion covers , for hats, gloves scarves looks nice and takes up no space in cupboard. Big Shoe bags for walking boots shoes & up-to. 3 pairs of sandals per bag. Exciting times ahead.
I am almost as excited about the van build as y’all are! It’s really looking good and I can’t wait to see it all completed. I’m loving living vicariously through you two. Stay safe!
Love these videos! Always look forward to them. Just want to say, great choice on the music, it always seems to be spot on for the mood. Good luck with the rest of the build, it looks great!
This is what I thoroughly enjoy the most - seeing beautiful little places in the UK that I have never seen before. We have some lovely places such a pity we dont get the lovely weather to enjoy them longer. I get to experience the highs, lows, sleepless & woes together with fun, laughter & all round simple living., watching you and Liam explore and see the country. Thank you for such a brilliant experience and living with the emotions with you both 😘😘
I’m sure u will both love your life in the van when finished,love your videos and hope you both keep safe and do what you do best.All the best from Sheffield.⚔️❤️
Great video. Glad you both had a much needed night out. You scrub up well. Must have been nice to return to the place you went to Uni... lots of good memories. Good luck with the new van. You're both so brave/mad. Look forward to the next update.
The new van is looking great! Nice to see Liam making a great effort for the party 😂. Glad to see you survived the terrible stormy weather. I was wondering about how you were going to get in and out of the van all along so glad you mentioned it in this vlog , I’m sure you will get it sorted with Liams help. That vegan restaurant looked awesome! All the best.
Hi guys loved this video, great party and I think your changes to the van sound great and hasn’t Liam done a great job so far, he’s a legend, can’t wait to see the finished van, love you two xxxxxxxxx😘❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I think windows both sides would be more beneficial, especially if your going to have a fire, hot shower and cooker, not to mention extra ventilation during hot summers. Maybe a small opening in the roof between your solar panels to ventilate sleeping area in summer rather than open windows of a night. Steps built onto door that secure up when not in use for quick access. Just a thought.
Another great video thank you , I don’t know who’s more excited about this project , you guys , Liam or myself. It’s coming together really nice , Liam’s doing a top job . Loved the sound track .
Hi you two amazing people!! Thoroughly enjoy your adventures, love how real you both are and that you show warts and all about your life on the road. Fascinating life you both lead and so interesting to see Liam the terribles work and expertise on your new home. You both looked great on your night out and your wife looked stunning !!!! Thankyou for sharing and can't wait for your next vlog, ps love how you are so upbeat!
Hi, great episode. I lived on a boat in HB for a number of years. Janine - hope you don’t mind me posting this about your cough, but I wanted to mention something a lot of people don’t know about - silent reflux. I get it with stress and sometimes triggered by alcohol. I don’t get any heartburn but still get the irritating cough. Anyway, just wanted to mention it x
Lisa Bond yes, I have been diagnosed with this, also. It’s from my sinuses constantly draining and irritating my throat all these years. I’m supposed also not drink alcohol, coffee, or eat acidic foods. Hahahaha! Like I will ever not drink coffee or tea……
I have GERD (acid reflux) and I have medication for it but there is times I cough a lot and people look at me like I have that Covid. I also sleep with a Cpap machine and it causes my sinuses to drain back in my throat which doesn’t help. Due to my acid reflux it’s hard to drink coffee or certain drinks 🍺 it’s been horrible when you love coffee ☕️ I might drink one once a month but trying to drink a lot puts me in pain with my stomach. So Iam so ready for this covid thing to be over so people don’t think I have it. ( I live in the USA 🇺🇸)
@@MsBabygurl4646 yes I’m in the U.S. as well. I have chronic Sinusitis (20 yes or so) and been to see specialists for years - no allergies, etc etc. and that’s what has eventually caused the silent reflux. Just life and getting old, etc. no meds really work either so I just deal with it. I cut down on the alcohol (never really drank that much anyway) and acidic foods but no way I’m giving up coffee and tea lol!
I really enjoyed your video this week guys. There's alot going on and alot of changes. But I love how you both are taking it in your stride and taking the plunge. I'm excited to see the living area and how much more space you have to crawl into. Just an idea but have you thought about having a pulled down screen installed that you can roll up when watching your movies using a projector. Just food for thought innit.
Ahh, great progress this week! I love the wood burner! It will be so cosy in there when it’s all finished! Janine looked so good too! I said to Tony -“see, that’s the difference! Janine wears hold ups, I buy then to make Gonk noses with! “ 🤪🤣xxx
When you move into your new van you will never want to go back to anything smaller , my first van was a little mwb transit but I felt to closed in , then went to a Luton and it was amazing , Liam does great work
Sleeping front to back gives a beautiful rocking side to side motion. Sleeping sideways isn't fun rocking head to foot. It will be worst in your higher bed position. Change your bed orientation or at least plan for that option. Cozy sleeps are the best!
My wife used to suffer with a winter cough on our boat every year, we narrowed it down to damp/condensation and also check for damp/mould under your mattress/walls - sleeping in damp was terrible for her, memory foam mattresses are the worst for soaking up moisture. within a few months of being land lubbers its gone. Hope this helps!
Loving your adventures. All that amazing looking vegan food, great views and updates on your new home. I can't wait to see Liam The Terrible's next video. x
Another Great Video, The van is coming along lovely and it really looks amazing!! Better than a camper van lol. You are so lucky to have found someone like Liam, who is doing you proud. I'm dead chuffed for both of you...🙂👍🏻👍🏻
It must be the vegan thing, the door or both? 2nd lot of tips. a first for me. The door and steps: check out the truck world for easy and discrete ideas and a pull out step. Best combo I have seen is inlaid foot and hand holds all the way up the side also act as easy and discrete roof access. Separate shower fan or using the maxair? You have a lot of wood, hungry for water. Separate fan = floor fan to outside and ducting, no holes in the van side. Maxair; I run dryer tubing from the shower to the fan 2 min full blast and the tubing collapses flat back into the shower. Log burner check the btu and room size and compare to your living space in the van. You will need to reduce it's btu (reduce capacity add a fire brick) soak up the heat with a water jacket (back boiler) you use it as a thermal store. It can get uncomfortable very quickly especially when you add more hot bloods (humans/animals). Add convection driven fans to the flue. I have never been in a luton van where the windows are not open (and door) when the burner is on in winter. Not great for those who cough! Weight; sure it's a light van (fwd) but you can't put majority of weight on the rear axle. Each axle will have a weight limit to stop overloading the rear axle = loss of steering and transmission especially on hills and when pulling away. Use the under seat space if you can, great for batteries or put a header pumped water tank = inboard filling pipe. (no holes). Talking of holes: cab hole! this is a modified change to the original vehicle (cab and chassis). On your insurance it will ask if you have modified the original vehicle (not the camper van conversion the cab and chassis). It is not a problem if you check it out (may require re-certification). Do nothing likely uninsured and not road legal. The end is nigh; the cough, my territory. First you only know if you get it at the same time each year if you keep a record chart, (A4 wall planner mark each day you have the same cough, plus work load, weather and location). This becomes your proof of what's happening over time. Here is my response. There are two parts; you have developed top breathing this means more breaths, interrupting speaking to breathe, sounding out of breath, you are cold...and this is my guess prolonged sitting positions. Look up diaphragmatic breathing whilst standing, is a good start. Practice calming breaths or whatever they call it. 2nd part: SAD. Seasonal Affecive Disorder. It is not a disorder. It is a human creation to carry on as normal whilst the light fades. Which happens sooner in Autumn and Winter so more time carrying on as normal in the dark. Add in lifestyle stresses and the body shows it; physical signs and mental signs. The simple and most effective change is to be most busy (especially on stressful stuff) in daylight hours. Yep, do your editing in the morning. Set a finish time...and stop. Give it a try.
Hey guys I’m glad to see it’s all coming along really nicely Can’t wait to see it all done We spotted Liam the terrible in a veggie cafe the other day and we really wanted to say hello and ask about the van but we’re just too shy 🙈
Love that you had a wonderful time at the party! Stephanie 🌹 Rose here from, FLORIDA🌴. Moisture problems? Small window in bathroom 4 sure! And 2x exhaust fans, that's 4 circulation. One is blowing out (near. Kitchen) while the other is bringing in air from outside. Of course you want the fans that will work either way so that you can change it from going out to in or in to out. And it's really a great idea to have some small light that you can turn on or off near the fan or around the fan so that if you have bugs inside oh, they will be attracted to the light and it'll blow the bugs out of the van. Thank you for letting me👣 tag along.🙏 Stay well, Be safe 🐚
stocking tops, I thought I got the wrong channel, considering you have to get ready in a van, you looked lovely for the party, great content, when you both get that big green machine on the road proper, you can visit so many places, looking forward to your summer adventures, keep safe, we await the next instalment!
Good morning Liam & Janine, another great vid, thank you! Your new home is really starting to take shape now. So exciting! Loving all the pine cladding - it's gonna have a real cosy log cabin feel to it especially with the wood burner. Liam the T is doing a fab job for you. He's very talented and passionate about what he does. Looking forward to the next instalment, take care. 😁❤❤
Great update u2. . Van looking really good you deffo gonna love it when Mr Terrible finnished it. . He knows his Stuff and a good man to know. . Hope to see u both again soon. Im in the Peak District next weekend have fun. . Let me know if u run out of gas. . Lol
I have a seasonal cough too. For me it’s brought on by the cold, dry air. The only things that soothe are hot drinks, soups etc, gargling with warm salt water and the occasional lozenge. A persistent cough can also be caused by GERD, so avoid things that give you acid reflux.
Mine is GORD. Got so bad I'd vomit in the Morning, had two scopes to one assess how bad the damage was and one to confirm recovery. Medication was a tiny pill once a day, amazing stuff, now it's antacids and diet and lifestyle changes. See an ENT.
It's all progressing really well, so pleased for you both. Loved the look of Hebden Bridge, will be a great place to visit this year, take care guys :-)
Lovely to see you both living your life in a possitive way 👍⚘😊🎈 I have been following Liam the terrible for a few years now 👍 he is an incredible man, he has come so far on his van builds, so thrilled for him.😊⚘👍 his family is so lovely, his beautiful daughter Alice is just adorable ❣😊 his precious boy is growing so fast and it is truely lovely to see him with his children 👍❣😊🎈 so now since I've seen him starting your home being built, I'm checking out this video and you have another subscriber. 👍⚘😊 Thanks for sharing and lovely to see you both.👍⚘😊
You looked beautiful. That dress👗 was perfect Janine... Loved your cardy too ❤️ glad you enjoyed your party. Van is coming along wonderful.. It is going to be gorgeous.. Thank you for sharing with us x stay safe guys ❤️
the new van looks brilliant guys my shower and toilet is next to the bed as well i put in a cheep extractor vent thats wired to the light so its on whenever i go in there and ive got no problems with damp or condensation 👍 step suggestion its really high so a system tat can fold up into the floor area or door is the only thing i can think of . keep the vids coming guys and happy travels
Ahh this was such a good watch! The editing, the quality, music and commentary, loved it👌🏾Loved the shots getting ready for the party, Janine looking fabulous. Cracking up at Janine struggling with wuthering/withering 🤣 Glad you guys got to make the changes you need in time, everything is coming along so well and looks great! I’m so excited for the final outcome but I’ve enjoyed the van build series so much it’ll be sad when it ends too lol. So so happy for the both of you, this is what it’s all about! 💚💚
I use a van like that for work and was so happy to see you have decided to install a side door ( hope my suggestion kinda helped u think about it ) as every day I was thinking what happens in tight spaces for u trying to get in and out the back but now I think u will have more freedom ✌🏻 I have a shower in my van and what a game changer, after a cold surf it’s the best thing 😂, Liam the terrible is a legend and can’t wait to see the end product 😎
Single seat problem.. I did a renault traffic Double to Single.. I used a drivers seat it all fitted just had the adjustment on the other side.. passed 3 mots 2 of which were different garages.. and its a dam sight cheaper than buying a passager seat.
You visit the loveliest place, Hebdon Bridge was wonderful. I envy you so much except for the gusty wind. Very best wishes with your new bigger van. Love from London.
Another brilliant episode guys, we're really enjoying seeing the progress of the new van... When we eventually get our van in July we must make a point of visiting "Withering Heights" 😅🤣👍 Take Care, looking forward to the next episode... Steve & Ang..🙂 🚐💨💨💨👍
Lots of love to you both thank you for sharing.Van coming on nicely. Lovely you being up North so much amazing music came out of northern cities. Coughing is good!! You are clearing your throat chakra energy can become stuck there. Thank you for inspiring so many xx
i have a renault master. i had the same problem with the price of single passenger seats... however i found that driver seats fit the same so i bought one of them... only having to change the seatbelt fittings to the other side. x
I have been trying to find a single for my master for over a year now , there are some but way overpriced like Liam mentioned 400 to 500 for a tatty seat ! , people know they are demand , if you price a double people are almost giving them away lol
Another great video. The layout you've decided on looks fabulous, I think it'll work really well for you & lovely to see you so excited about it 👍 No wonder you both felt so rough after the party, which looked fab, you hit the Jaeger bombs early 😀 Hope your cough eases Janine, must be really frustrating 😓
Great to see how Well your jolly green giant is coming along! How lovely to be able to get in everything you need!!! Can you not get an electric slide out step as some campervan have. Janine you looked stunning in your dress & cardi !!! Looked like a memorable night… can’t wait to see next weeks progress x
You guys are a breath of fresh air, there’s so much crap going on here in Ontario Canada right now it’s great to watch you guys and have a little chuckle! The new van is looking awesome so far. Hey Janine have the Drs ever mentioned Post Nasal Drip re your cough? Omnivaris works great for it if it’s available there which thinking it should be!
Your new home is really looking fantastic. The king size bed will be absolutely luxurious. Wow Janine you look fantastic, Liam is a very lucky guy. What a lovely couple you are. Liam the terrible is really doing a great job. Can’t wait to see the end result. 😊😊😊
Thank you for bringing us along on your journey through life. I heard you mention windows, have you considered putting long narrow ones in the back doors next to your seating area? Wasnt sure what plans you had for those doors. 😊
Beyond fantastic, you both are ... 10/10 from me ... I love trying to follow your story, if only you had the video's numbered I could follow them from the start all the way along ... I wish you both amazing thoughts ... Thank you so much for you inspiring passion ... Well done ...
Really look forward to your vlog every Sunday morning, janine I can empathise with you, I have a permanent cough there is no reason for and covid has made people's reactions much worse and I'm forever trying to suppress it, take care both of you xxx
Someone mentioned ‘silent reflux’ which is also what I have. Kind of a permanent irritation of the throat and caused by sinus drainage and/or acidic foods and drink. Not acid reflux from the stomach. Not much for it, really other than giving up alcohol, coffee, tea, etc… as if that will ever happen…
Hi, love you guys thanks for all the great vlogs. Janine a few years back I was getting a terrible cough several times a tear, my lips were dry all the time no one knew why. But since doc put me on high strength iron , no more cough or dry lips. I'm a veggie too. Just a thought.
I hear what you say about it being a light van with good payload, I was worried for you it may go overweight. Love the idea of putting the shower/toilet inboard, and leaving the rear for seating. I bet LTT was pulling his hair out, thinking please don't change the layout again.. 🤣 Looking forward to his build this week, see how he is getting on Krusty🤓
a door on the side is a really good idea and the ladder for the bed, it'll be a lot easier to manoeuvre. its coming along so well, one day in the future i would love to have a van to redo (even though its so much work!)
6:27 Liam is kneeling behind thinking to himself "Yeah right, this better be the bloody final layout...." 😉
And if you think it was windy in the Transit, wait till you move into the new van.... 💨💨💨
Haha good point
@@PK_Blinder And another reason not to have a plastic roof light aboth the bed.
@@ThoseHappyDays not true I think LTT wants it perfect for you or he couldn’t live with himself 😇
@@sirslice He is being paid as a professional van builder and he gave us to this day to give the final layout so all good 😊
Hi Janine. Regarding your cough, I had the same thing for years. Discovered it was acid reflux with vitamin C. Started taking MSM for my hair.

Thank you Liz 💚
The plan sounds great all mod cons, no mention of a loo though, seems like an essential to my way of thinking.
Yeah we just need to think about it more
@@ThoseHappyDays As time goes by you will perhaps sadly realise that this gets more important, the years affect us all in the end.
You both are a lovely couple. How amazing that we get to be such a part of your journey. Save travels and Morgan as you know will be a success.
We both love and appreciate you going through all our videos and watching them, it really means a lot to us ❤️
The new van is coming along nicely guys, Gonna be so much more room for you both.
So looking forward the finished project.
Good luck guys.

Fold down passenger step from a Landrover Defender may be an option for getting a leg up or down into the side door.
Just had to Google that, looks perfect 👍
I met Frank at a Wildhearts show in London a few years ago! He is such a nice dude. Awesome video again guys x
Proper nice chap
I really enjoyed your video this week guys. There's alot going on and alot of changes. But I love how you both are taking it in your stride and taking the plunge.
I'm excited to see the living area and how much more space you have to crawl into. Just an idea but have you thought about having a pulled down screen installed that you can roll up when watching your movies using a projector.
Just food for thought innit.
Would love a projector! Great idea 💡
Ahh, great progress this week! I love the wood burner! It will be so cosy in there when it’s all finished!
Janine looked so good too! I said to Tony -“see, that’s the difference! Janine wears hold ups, I buy then to make Gonk noses with! “ 🤪🤣xxx
🤣🤣🤣🤣💚
Hebden Bridge and Haworth are lovely areas. It's pronounced how-worth. Love the vlogs!!
I hope your big boxy new van can handle the wind ok 🤞
When you move into your new van you will never want to go back to anything smaller , my first van was a little mwb transit but I felt to closed in , then went to a Luton and it was amazing , Liam does great work

Oh wow love Frank Turner looks like you had a great party.🍾
Was amazing thank you 😊
I bought a ford galaxy driver seat, had to adjust feet but works fine, slightly lower ( about an inch or so) other MPV seats may work
I just come back from hebden bridge yesterday visiting family! Its an awesome place for mountain biking!
Ooo yeah we saw a few mountain bikers, hope you had a good time
So pleased you decided to go with a side door for access, great decision. Enjoying the build so far 👌
Thanks Steve 💚

The door and steps: check out the truck world for easy and discrete ideas and a pull out step. Best combo I have seen is inlaid foot and hand holds all the way up the side also act as easy and discrete roof access.
Separate shower fan or using the maxair? You have a lot of wood, hungry for water. Separate fan = floor fan to outside and ducting, no holes in the van side. Maxair; I run dryer tubing from the shower to the fan 2 min full blast and the tubing collapses flat back into the shower.
Log burner check the btu and room size and compare to your living space in the van. You will need to reduce it's btu (reduce capacity add a fire brick) soak up the heat with a water jacket (back boiler) you use it as a thermal store. It can get uncomfortable very quickly especially when you add more hot bloods (humans/animals). Add convection driven fans to the flue. I have never been in a luton van where the windows are not open (and door) when the burner is on in winter. Not great for those who cough!
Weight; sure it's a light van (fwd) but you can't put majority of weight on the rear axle. Each axle will have a weight limit to stop overloading the rear axle = loss of steering and transmission especially on hills and when pulling away. Use the under seat space if you can, great for batteries or put a header pumped water tank = inboard filling pipe. (no holes).
Talking of holes: cab hole! this is a modified change to the original vehicle (cab and chassis). On your insurance it will ask if you have modified the original vehicle (not the camper van conversion the cab and chassis). It is not a problem if you check it out (may require re-certification). Do nothing likely uninsured and not road legal.
The end is nigh; the cough, my territory. First you only know if you get it at the same time each year if you keep a record chart, (A4 wall planner mark each day you have the same cough, plus work load, weather and location). This becomes your proof of what's happening over time. Here is my response. There are two parts; you have developed top breathing this means more breaths, interrupting speaking to breathe, sounding out of breath, you are cold...and this is my guess prolonged sitting positions. Look up diaphragmatic breathing whilst standing, is a good start. Practice calming breaths or whatever they call it.
2nd part: SAD. Seasonal Affecive Disorder. It is not a disorder. It is a human creation to carry on as normal whilst the light fades. Which happens sooner in Autumn and Winter so more time carrying on as normal in the dark. Add in lifestyle stresses and the body shows it; physical signs and mental signs. The simple and most effective change is to be most busy (especially on stressful stuff) in daylight hours. Yep, do your editing in the morning. Set a finish time...and stop. Give it a try.
Really appreciate all the tips, means a lot thank you 😊
Hey guys
I’m glad to see it’s all coming along really nicely
Can’t wait to see it all done
We spotted Liam the terrible in a veggie cafe the other day and we really wanted to say hello and ask about the van but we’re just too shy 🙈
He's a friendly chap, say hello next time 💚
Love that you had a wonderful time at the party! Stephanie 🌹 Rose here from, FLORIDA🌴. Moisture problems? Small window in bathroom 4 sure! And 2x exhaust fans, that's 4 circulation. One is blowing out (near. Kitchen) while the other is bringing in air from outside. Of course you want the fans that will work either way so that you can change it from going out to in or in to out. And it's really a great idea to have some small light that you can turn on or off near the fan or around the fan so that if you have bugs inside oh, they will be attracted to the light and it'll blow the bugs out of the van. Thank you for letting me👣 tag along.🙏 Stay well, Be safe 🐚
So much wisdom in that caption, thank you 😊
I can not wait to see Liams van build next episode. Talk about giving him a challenge you owe him a crate of beers as they say in Australia 👍
stocking tops, I thought I got the wrong channel, considering you have to get ready in a van, you looked lovely for the party, great content, when you both get that big green machine on the road proper, you can visit so many places, looking forward to your summer adventures, keep safe, we await the next instalment!
Thanks Stephen 💚
I’m getting so excited for you both, the van looks amazing 😊
Thanks Rebecca 💚
Fascinating insight into two wonderful people. I've never seen so many adverts in 30 mins! Liam is awesome! He should be called Liam the Tolerant!
Yeah we watched the video back at folks house and it had like 4 ads...crazy
@@ThoseHappyDays Only four? I had 9!

Good morning Liam & Janine, another great vid, thank you! Your new home is really starting to take shape now. So exciting! Loving all the pine cladding - it's gonna have a real cosy log cabin feel to it especially with the wood burner. Liam the T is doing a fab job for you. He's very talented and passionate about what he does. Looking forward to the next instalment, take care. 😁❤❤
Cheers James, yeah I think we will try and keep the cabin look 👍
Great update u2. . Van looking really good you deffo gonna love it when Mr Terrible finnished it. . He knows his Stuff and a good man to know. . Hope to see u both again soon. Im in the Peak District next weekend have fun. . Let me know if u run out of gas. . Lol
Hey man, so good to hear from you. Keep an eye out for the Beechwoods big black truck, and have a great weekend
I have a seasonal cough too. For me it’s brought on by the cold, dry air. The only things that soothe are hot drinks, soups etc, gargling with warm salt water and the occasional lozenge. A persistent cough can also be caused by GERD, so avoid things that give you acid reflux.
Thank you 💚
Mine is GORD. Got so bad I'd vomit in the Morning, had two scopes to one assess how bad the damage was and one to confirm recovery. Medication was a tiny pill once a day, amazing stuff, now it's antacids and diet and lifestyle changes. See an ENT.
Lots of pollen out there too. From trees and catkins
You two are adorable, I love watching you.
It's all progressing really well, so pleased for you both. Loved the look of Hebden Bridge, will be a great place to visit this year, take care guys :-)
Yeah such a cool place 😎
I really enjoyed the vlog, lovely people you are.lm so glad Liam mentioned your channel. Looking forward to the next one.
Thanks Ricky 💚
Brilliant episode as usual and everything seems to be coming together well. Fingers crossed it all goes smoothly and you can move in. 😁👍
Thanks guys, looking forward to watching your most recent video later 😀

Thank you Shirley, yes we are lucky to have Liam doing the build 💚
sounds like a great layout! cannot believe how quickly it is all coming together! We have just taken a year to self build a Fiat Ducato!
Yeah they take a while to build on your own don't they
You both looked gorgeous for your party and the van is looking great. Liam the Terrible is doing a superb job. x
💚💚💚
Glad you had a blast at the party 🎉Janine you looked beautiful🌹 Wish your vlogs were longer! 💜💚
💚 thank you Hilary
I wish they had a twice a week vlog.
You looked beautiful. That dress👗 was perfect Janine... Loved your cardy too ❤️ glad you enjoyed your party. Van is coming along wonderful.. It is going to be gorgeous.. Thank you for sharing with us x stay safe guys ❤️
Thanks Terry 💚
the new van looks brilliant guys my shower and toilet is next to the bed as well i put in a cheep extractor vent thats wired to the light so its on whenever i go in there and ive got no problems with damp or condensation 👍 step suggestion its really high so a system tat can fold up into the floor area or door is the only thing i can think of . keep the vids coming guys and happy travels
Thanks Kel, will take a look into that 💚
A busy week by the looks, defo cold and windy. Withering Heights made me laugh, 😊 go well you two 🤩
Ahh this was such a good watch! The editing, the quality, music and commentary, loved it👌🏾Loved the shots getting ready for the party, Janine looking fabulous. Cracking up at Janine struggling with wuthering/withering 🤣 Glad you guys got to make the changes you need in time, everything is coming along so well and looks great! I’m so excited for the final outcome but I’ve enjoyed the van build series so much it’ll be sad when it ends too lol. So so happy for the both of you, this is what it’s all about! 💚💚
💚💚💚💚
Oh yes. The withering/wuthering. So funny.
Love watching your van build. You two are such fun to watch!
👍🚐💚
I use a van like that for work and was so happy to see you have decided to install a side door ( hope my suggestion kinda helped u think about it ) as every day I was thinking what happens in tight spaces for u trying to get in and out the back but now I think u will have more freedom ✌🏻
I have a shower in my van and what a game changer, after a cold surf it’s the best thing 😂, Liam the terrible is a legend and can’t wait to see the end product 😎
Thank you, yes you definitely helped with this decision 💚
Van is coming on great, good work Liam. I agree with just having a foot bar as it will not take any room up. Look forward to seeing end result
Single seat problem.. I did a renault traffic Double to Single.. I used a drivers seat it all fitted just had the adjustment on the other side.. passed 3 mots 2 of which were different garages.. and its a dam sight cheaper than buying a passager seat.
You visit the loveliest place, Hebdon Bridge was wonderful. I envy you so much except for the gusty wind. Very best wishes with your new bigger van. Love from London.
Thanks Alicia 💚
Another brilliant episode guys, we're really enjoying seeing the progress of the new van...
When we eventually get our van in July we must make a point of visiting
"Withering Heights" 😅🤣👍
Take Care, looking forward to the next episode...
Steve & Ang..🙂 🚐💨💨💨👍
🤣🤣🤣🤣👍
This is so exciting. I am glad to be here at the beginning of your new build. Liam is awesome. 😁😁
Great progress on your new home, it is coming along nicely and looks really good, that ladder to the bed is a fantastic design… 👍🏻
Thanks Kevin 💚
Lots of love to you both thank you for sharing.Van coming on nicely. Lovely you being up North so much amazing music came out of northern cities. Coughing is good!! You are clearing your throat chakra energy can become stuck there. Thank you for inspiring so many xx
Hi Jude, we are really keen to go to a holistic healer for this...watch this space 💚
Been looking forward to this.👍
I like that show.... Your country is so beautiful.
👍
i have a renault master. i had the same problem with the price of single passenger seats... however i found that driver seats fit the same so i bought one of them... only having to change the seatbelt fittings to the other side. x
I have been trying to find a single for my master for over a year now , there are some but way overpriced like Liam mentioned 400 to 500 for a tatty seat ! , people know they are demand , if you price a double people are almost giving them away lol
Looking forward to each part of the new build.Will be room for guests when it is finished.
I think there might be 😃
Another great video. The layout you've decided on looks fabulous, I think it'll work really well for you & lovely to see you so excited about it 👍
No wonder you both felt so rough after the party, which looked fab, you hit the Jaeger bombs early 😀
Hope your cough eases Janine, must be really frustrating 😓
Haha jaeger bombs are dangerous
So really spellbinding, So glad you keep the colour scheme outside ,, you certainly will become rather famous ,,Jim'n'Sue
Thanks guys 💚
So exciting watching the van transform:)
Thank you Lynby 💚
Great to see how Well your jolly green giant is coming along! How lovely to be able to get in everything you need!!! Can you not get an electric slide out step as some campervan have.
Janine you looked stunning in your dress & cardi !!! Looked like a memorable night… can’t wait to see next weeks progress x
Thanks Christine 💚
You guys are a breath of fresh air, there’s so much crap going on here in Ontario Canada right now it’s great to watch you guys and have a little chuckle! The new van is looking awesome so far. Hey Janine have the Drs ever mentioned Post Nasal Drip re your cough? Omnivaris works great for it if it’s available there which thinking it should be!
Just searched and can't find it...does it go by any other name?
Your new home is really looking fantastic. The king size bed will be absolutely luxurious.
Wow Janine you look fantastic, Liam is a very lucky guy. What a lovely couple you are.
Liam the terrible is really doing a great job. Can’t wait to see the end result. 😊😊😊
Cheers Dan 🍻
Thank you for bringing us along on your journey through life. I heard you mention windows, have you considered putting long narrow ones in the back doors next to your seating area? Wasnt sure what plans you had for those doors. 😊
Great ideas 💡
Beyond fantastic, you both are ...
10/10 from me ...
I love trying to follow your story, if only you had the video's numbered I could follow them from the start all the way along ...
I wish you both amazing thoughts ...
Thank you so much for you inspiring passion ...
Well done ...
We could definitely do that
Really look forward to your vlog every Sunday morning, janine I can empathise with you, I have a permanent cough there is no reason for and covid has made people's reactions much worse and I'm forever trying to suppress it, take care both of you xxx
It's horrible when everyone is paranoid 😕 thanks for support 💚
I'm the same Pat.
Someone mentioned ‘silent reflux’ which is also what I have. Kind of a permanent irritation of the throat and caused by sinus drainage and/or acidic foods and drink. Not acid reflux from the stomach. Not much for it, really other than giving up alcohol, coffee, tea, etc… as if that will ever happen…
Hi, love you guys thanks for all the great vlogs. Janine a few years back I was getting a terrible cough several times a tear, my lips were dry all the time no one knew why. But since doc put me on high strength iron , no more cough or dry lips. I'm a veggie too. Just a thought.
I hear what you say about it being a light van with good payload,
I was worried for you it may go overweight.
Love the idea of putting the shower/toilet inboard, and leaving the rear for seating.
I bet LTT was pulling his hair out, thinking please don't change the layout again.. 🤣
Looking forward to his build this week, see how he is getting on
Krusty🤓
Haha yeah, but also relieved that the layout is now finalised
Great video guys like the rock music footage with picture changes … Hayworth is beautiful …. Van is coming along ..
Thanks guys 💚
Its Ha-worth not Hayworth 😂 Excited to see your finished layout 💚
a door on the side is a really good idea and the ladder for the bed, it'll be a lot easier to manoeuvre. its coming along so well, one day in the future i would love to have a van to redo (even though its so much work!)
