Nollig Butler

I had a tent, a backpack and a pair of walking boots.

I haven't needed to in a long time now.

I've got a lovely van that I've converted myself.

and I haven't needed to throw the pump out on the side of the road.

I have a little camper van, yeah.

So I basically got a builder's van and I insulated it.

I put a small bed in the back of it and a little kind of cupboard, a cooler.

So I have no electrics.

I have no kind of solar panel or anything like that.

It's literally just kind of a cooler that I put ice in on a Friday evening.

I drive away and that's my base camp.

That's what I operate out of for weekends away.

So whether it's Clare, whether it's down to Kerry, whether it's up to Donegal, I head out, I sleep in the van.

It's brilliant.

I kind of use it as a bit of a stealth camper.

Maybe I shouldn't be advertising this, but...

I've got no windows in it.

So when it's parked, either in a car park on the side of the road, whether it's Quilter or a beach car park, you can't really tell that there's anybody in it.

There's no logos.

There's no windows.
