Cover stars!

Wednesday, September 13th, 2006

Well, whaddyaknow - Ethel, aka my 75 Bay, is a cover star, as is the lovely wife! I wrote a piece for the book Campervan Crazy for nothing other than the privilege of being featured inside and getting myself a free copy of said book. Yep, I think they got a good deal, all things considered, but owning a vdub was never about the money (well, maybe spending money on keeping it running!). It turns out, though, that not only are we featured inside, my bus and Manda (leaning out the window wearing a pink hoody with cute animal ears on) are going to appear on the front cover. Ahem, exhibit A:

We're on a book cover!

And here’s the original pic, as taken while on our travels across the Nullarbor Plain:

You can order the book now at Amazon (UK) now.

Buy Some Nice VW Merchandise Here, folks …

Go on, you know you want to …

I’ve set up a shop on Cafepress.com with my favourite photo of Ethel on T-shirts, mugs and a rather fetching messenger bag.

So, roll up folks, buy your VW/volkswagen clothing and other schtick here!

Note: I’m not doing this for the profit - setting up a shop on Cafepress will hardly make me a bean - I just kinda like the idea of seeing someone with an Ethel shirt on!
