Hunting for a camper

After updating the blog this morning using the free wifi of the local McDonalds I went to the city center to collect my Formula One race ticket.

Anyway, I got my F1 ticket. Tomorrow around 12:30 the first free practice session is scheduled (I think, need to check the schedule—another visit to McD), so I think I'll go and check where I can get a reasonable view. I only have general access, so I won't be able to sit in one of the grand–stands. Which is fine.

Then later in the afternoon, at 3 o'clock, I have an appointment with a guy to view his camper he's selling on gumtree. It's an old 4x4 Mitsubishi camper van. Not a problem if it's still in reasonable repair. I thought it had registration until next year, forgetting for a moment that it's already 2015. That could be a bit of a problem. So I'm not so sure about it. I'll go see and if it's really looking good I might be tempted. But at least I would have to have a test–drive. Which is unlikely if it's not registered.

Anyway, another reason to re–visit the McD, as I have a few other potential camper van ads I want to check out further. I was in a cafe with wifi, but it just works better with a laptop instead of a mobile.

And, of course, I need to upload this piece…
