Not yet :( I'm kinda slow (and for some reason the wife dosen't understand why the van needs lowering and new wheels, but I've been working on it) I spend a bit of time checking out what's around :D

Just got a new JK awning, have to find a place to try and put that up. Only big piece of greenery around us is Richmond Park and not sure if the deer enjoy us driving on their land.
