Darrell and Nigel Find ………..

Just look what Darrell and Nigel found in their very most favourite charity shop in Evesham ……….

1970s Sindy Caravan

…….. only a Nigel sized caravan ………..

Darrell said that leaving it behind broke his heart, as Nigel’s little face was a picture.  But despite it being almost antique, dating, Darrell reckons from the 1970’s, it really was in an awful state of repair, in this case the photos make it look a lot better than it actually was.  The roof was battered, as were all the sides, this was a restoration project of mammoth proportions, and where on earth would we keep it?

He/we may live to regret not making a considered purchase, Darrell was sorely tempted a couple of times to go back and look it over again without a beside himself Nigel breathing down his neck …….. but on this occassion it was a bridge too far ……….. even for the ever resourceful Darrell.

What a pity. I could imagine Nigel wanting to sleep in it.

Oh my goodness-that would have been a time consuming & challenging project. Fun photos though.

Oh my days, an actual real life Sindy caravan! I think this might be a 60’s toy. Please go back and buy it now!! Nigel can take it on as a post lockdown project, he can use it as his little office to plan his real life caravan holidays, and he can even have little sleepovers in there! You have to get it for him!!
