A new friend has entered our lives. She is white with rusty freckles, weighs 2.5 tonnes, is a bit rough around the edges but has a heart of diesel. Her name is Snowflake and will be our constant companion over the next 6 months or more.
Of course Snowflake isn’t technically a person, she is a van. A 1994 Ford Transit Camper to be exact. She’s as moody as a human though, especially in the morning, when it’s cold she doesn’t want to wake up. Due to her slow-as-a-wet-fart take off speed, Snowflake has also earned a second nickname of The White Badger.
Like any good friend she is reliable and grows on you more everyday. Despite her being a true Bogan, we can’t wait to get to know our new mate even more in the coming months. You’ll probably see her pop into the blog from time to time with a cameo here or there. As soon as we fix a little leak in her engine next week, we’re off to Scotland.
