Right, Taz & I have had a second bash at creating a write up. This time it was the turn of Mr Two Showers' "Sleeper" teardrop caravan essay. We've added it to the Miscellaneous section of the main site.
The title banner's the bit that's taking us the longest -we're not very PhotoShop literate but we're getting there.
Come on people, send us in more stuff -we need the practice!  Grin

I take it you don't like the heading then  Cry That took us 2 evenings to make. It's only the second one we've done and photoshop is like reading a foreign language to us. But we will get there in the end. The rest of the actual write up only takes about 20 mins to do. Just the flippin banners that are the pain.

I'd love one of them, shame that they are a bit pricey for me.

Do you need a dealer in the south west?

Hey VB take it easy...straight is good...in my book anyway. Trouble is straight tends to hurt people's toes if you get my drift. Carry on as you are.

Cheers you lot for the plug on the Sleepers.

Just a point to the Twisted who said "a bit too pricey for me".  The American Imports are over £3000 and over 300Kg so too expensive for cash strapped working folks and too heavy for most trikes.  The Sleeper is 100KG and £1500 for a ready built or £1200 for a kit.
The Sleeper IS BASIC, but it's intended to be as light as possible to make it more accessible to more people.
If you think this is too much, try saving £3k and then find out that your trike won't tow 300Kg.  Ask Baddon, he made that mistake and bought a second hand home made job that weighed too much and wouldn't tow well.  He's now got a Sleeper in Ireland and enjoying every minute of it.

Sorry I haven't been on for a while.  I took my good lady to Spain for her 40th.  The Friday before we flew out, I was told I was laid off, no longer required, money saving excercise..... as they say.

Still, we went, had a good time, came back, and I'll worry about work now...

Anyone need an M & E CAD Operator?Huh

MM, Got your message about the write up and I'll get on it tomorrow.  I'll send the photo's seperate as requested.

I hear what your saying and I'm sure your right, Two showers but still too pricey. Grin

Sorry to hear about the Job. I'm sure you'll find something.

Do you do HP?  Grin

Being made redundant is horrid - I've been there twice.  Hope you find something soon but it sounds like you are well qualified.
