Saturday was spent mostly on scrubbing the outside. The yellow paint that was already on it, was coming away the more we scrubbed. In fact, even the white was coming away too!
I think that Hyacinth is going to be very happy indeed with a new make over..
We must have found about 8 lots of ants nests inside this caravan.
When we get rid of one lot, the following day, we find there is another lot.
We have actually bought an infestation of ants caravan!
Never buying another caravan or motorhome from Ebay again, unless we go to inspect it first!
I don't care what the previous owners say, this caravan hasn't been used in years!!
Anyway, here are the photos of Hyacinths having a well earned scrub and paint job.. a few years overdue me thinks.
Got to get the kids involved too :)
Oh yes, hubby is doing a fabulous job on the roof. Look at the state it was in.
And the sides, get rid of that awful yellow colour.
Ripped out the back corner there as it was damp. Inside was another nest of ants too.
Inside the seats were about 4 lots of ant nests. and a lot of damp too.
The fridge has been removed, behind which we found... yes you've guessed it, more ants nests and inside the splash back and the pipes that go to the sink! The over hanging cupboards also housed more ants.
Although the ants have been somewhat of a put-off for me. I am still just as excited to get this project off the ground and have our own little home from home :)
