Got the T shirt…

I wouldn’t say that I am obsessed with VW campervans, it’s a passing interest, so whenever I pass one I’m interested, really interested. If it’s rolling along the road I gaze longingly at it as it trundles by, wishing that it was mine, rating it out of ten. I’m torn between the split screen and the original Westphalia, but really any VW campervan takes my interest, even the new ones.

I’ve managed so far to stay away from too much campervan stuff. I’ve a print, a couple of fridge magnets, and my collection of T shirts. I have four, so it’s hardly an obsession is it?

Is my collection of T shirts bordering on the obsessive?

Of course, in my dreams I own a campervan and sometimes I pass the time by imagining what my campervan would look like and how I would campervan it up. I might just go for a cool cream, a subtle green, or maybe a grey. Of course I’d like it to look cool, so maybe a few Sailor Jerry tattoo embellishments might do the trick. Yes, I quite fancy that.

The bus in the picture is cool. I bumped into it in Wales at the weekend, Barmouth to be precise. It may look wrecked and rusty but the distress and rust are lovingly painted on. I went up close and checked it out. The lumps and bumps of rust are resin and it’s been painstakingly painted then hand-faded to make it look worn out. What a great example of a really cool vehicle all shabby chic-ed up and immaculate in every other way. Just look at those shiny hub caps and the streamliner interior gleamed like that proverbial new pin.

Oh well, at least I have the T shirts.
