This week I introduce my girlfriend Evie to van life and life on the road for a few days as we explore the beautiful area of the Brecon Beacons National Park in Wales in my self converted campervan. As with every adventure things don't always go to plan.

Make sure to watch until the end of the video, it’s worth it I promise 👊🏻! P.S My new camera lady is going to need some training by the looks of things but hopefully she'll stick around for the foreseeable future! Mary's got competition 😂

2 cups of water to 1 cup of rice. Simmer until the waters soaked up by the rice. No need for straining and it won't be like rice pudding.

@@davecoop9579 yes definitely add salt, you can also add lots of other things to it to add flavor such as cloves, cardamom, star anise, cinnamon etc.

@Marks-Garage Ай бұрын

The brake fluid issue can just be caused by brake pad wear. As the brakes wear the caliper pistons push out further so you end up with more fluid behind the caliper piston and less in the reservoir. The only real issue with over filling is that when you go to have new brake pads fitted they will have to push the pistons back in and there is a risk of the brake fluid spilling over the top of the reservoir. Not a huge issue! as long as you wash it off quickly!

Looking forward to part two 👍👍
