Lol....im going to do a course in essex and too tight to pay for digs...i just got the fishing bag as I carp fish too.
 
Oh right.:LOL:
Well, carp fishing hardly counts anyway. Lol.
You need line the van with insulated boards. Your gonna bloody freeze.
 
Make sure you have good ventillation, and if you can get yourself some dessicant bags. Condensation will be a proper pain in a van at this time of year. There are few things more miserable than getting into a cold damp sleeping bag.

Trust me when I say, you will need to sort out the condensation. It's no exaggeration to say that if you ignore it hypothermia isn't out of the question.

I do have a little experince of camping in the cold. (y)

Try and hang a towel or doubled up dust sheet across the inside of the roof to catch any condensation dripping on you.

First thing I noticed is no insulation! You should have that thing covered in it and a vent to vent moisture out! Fair play to you thou but like I said before, get onto POF.com and you'll have some lonely single parent looking after you in no time. Nice warm bed, cooked food, hot showers/bath and an empty sack.

Keep us posted daily of your whole experience. Should be interesting reading I tell ya.
 
Yes will be an interesting read, we want daily pictures & updates of your van camping, not of the plastering course @Lodan :D only joking let us know how it goes.
Also remember to change your wank sock at least once a week otherwise it starts to scratch a bit after that :confused:
