Nellie on tour

Nellie on tour The adventures of a Fiat Ducato Wildax Constellation 3XL My name is Sid. I am a retired civil servant currently enjoying the "van life" experience.

My main hobby is amateur radio and I like to spare what time I have to the hobby. CW, or Morse Code, is my preferred mode of operation although I do maker the occasional VOX , voice, contact. I share the home with my wife Nicola, my best friend and confidant. I also share the house with 4 "fur babies"! An 18 year old British Shorthair Lilac Colourpoint named Primrose and three feral rescues, Rosie, Beau and Treacle. Nicola and I are their slaves.

Arrived a short while ago! Time to relax before having something to eat and drink.

Finally had some decent weather to allow me to fit the Heko wind deflectors. Fairly straightforward to fit too. This will be ideal in the late Spring and Summer months and allow us to leave the windows slightly open.
