well, when trawling through eBay a couple of weeks ago - I found a "Polaris Waza Kit" for sale
now, when they first came out I brought the Polaris Kit and fitted it to my Blue Beastie and my Flamingo
loved it
then when I updated, I transferred it to the White Beastie, all good
then I sold the Flamingo, and thought, mmmm need to fit it to the new Expanda..... but
I didnt like the way I had the camera cable just hanging out the back door to connect to the Van.....
hence finding the Waza Kit (tis a "curly" cable for connecting the Van to the Tug for the reversing Camera)
so while I'm home this week, I am hoping I will "extract" the digit, and get it fitted up - it even came with a "snazzy" camera all chrome looking (instead of white)
hopefully

in the spirit of @The Goodwins with his "epic" yard re-modeling,
I am continuing to re-make my back yard to be more used friendly.
the idea is to give me more room getting the Van in and out, as well as parking for my car when I am not in Perth (instead of leaving it out the front of the house)
a bit of loose background, so you can nod your head and go mmmmmmm
with my Flamingo, I used to be able to reverse the van (2010mm wide) in my back yard, through the gate (2150mm wide), past my little shed to park it away.
when necessary, it was put under the patio out of the weather
unfortunately, I haven't found a pick to show you, but once I do, I will post it up
any how, when we picked up the new Expanda, I was trying to reverse it into said gate, and it wouldn't fit.......
WTF - its the same width as the Flamingo, why can I not get it through......?
long story short, the Expanda has the awning attached on the outside......... DOH
so the Fence needed moving, and a new Gate fabricated ASAP
lucky I had already emptied and dismantled my shed, as I really needed the room.
so this is how the yard sat for the last 15 months, while I tried to work out what I wanted.....
new gate
sand under half the van

so, on a whim........ I stopped to annoy a guy doing Brick Paving down the road, to get him to come and quote what I needed doing.
was a good quote, good enough for me to order a heap of Pavers and get them delivered last Friday
on Monday, I had a Bobcat / Skid steer arrive, and talk with the Brickpaver (named Steve) about depths and levels and other crap I dont know about.......
he set about transforming my sand pit from this..........

today, Steve has nearly finished the whole lot, with some cutting to do tomorrow, and its all sorted......
we did have a "hiccup" that meant the old drive way had to be lifted - some tosser brought the Pavers from a different company than the ones already layed - and they are 4 mm smaller...... who would have "thunked it".........
more pic's tomorrow
