Here it is



Hopefully coming to an IGA carpark near me soon, although if I ever see it in the flesh I'll probably start to hyperventilate.
Thank you Leanne from Wicked Campers for asking me to submit a saying to grace the back of one of your vans. It looks fabulous. I love it.
If you don't know what the hell I'm on about, you'll find the full story here and here and Leanne's A Wicked Evangelist blog here.
Now I'm going to have a cup of tea and a lie down. The excitement's just about done me in.

Fantastic! Glad you like it.

Any excuse for a lie down! By the way, how is your kitchen tiling coming along? Or should I wait for your photographic update?

I'm working on a French translation...so useful at traffic lights when the one in front is in thumb in posterior, mind in neutral mode as usual.

ALSO, if the gendarmerie think I've got a gun I'll never be stopped for speeding again! All I need now is to put it on the front as well to avoid being flagged down for a look at my papers.

Leanne: Thanks again.
Suzanne: I think the kitchen tiling is still decades away. As I write this, Dave and Mark (the renderers) are in there covering up a bricked-in window. They finished the outside of the house yesterday and it looks fab.
Fly: My high-school French is too limited to be of any help, unless honkez-vous has already entered the lexicon. I remember French drivers though (scary but not as crazy as the Italians).

Congratulations on having your saying painted on the camper. I could give you a finnish interpretation, just not sure if the finns would allow it?
Have you found tiles for the kitchen?

Hello! I just love your blog!! Lots of great posts here for me to explore -- but I simply had to comment on this one! Love it!!

Out here in western Washington state, the phrase serves as either a deterrent to crime or an invitation. We recommend keeping the criminals on their toes, wondering, does she or doesn't she pack a little heat? So, unfortunately, we can't have such cool/funny comments on our cars and hope to not have the tires slashed or the windows smashed! LOL But I love it!! Keep up the great work!! :D

Birgitta: the only things we've got for the kitchen are the dishwasher, cooktop and oven and they've been sitting in the shed for more than a year (we were very optimistic back then). Now the rendering's done we can get the paths round the house laid, which means we'll no longer be living in a mud bath, which means we can get the kitchen done.
Sunflower: thanks for your kind words about my blog - I can't believe I've got visitors from the US. Pack a little heat? LOL. The most we can pack over here is a hot glue gun.

Lol :P I want to see that just walking past. That'd be so awesome.

I should so paint my van like that! It looks pretty much the same minus the paint... Paint it like that, or as a hippy van. Haven't decided/got permission from parents.

Michele said...

Brilliant isn't it? That said, the hippy road might be the safer one to take (have a look at Sunflower Ranch's comment...)
