Conversion Story: Becky was besotted with this bus from the moment she spotted it for sale on a friend's timeline. Maybe it was the classic boxy 90s bus look, maybe the fact it was already converted and we could see how spacious it was.... 3 months later it was ours. The previous conversion used the space well but was a bit primitive and impractical. So, we proceeded to strip out everything that was there, (bar the sofa) and rebuilt it with a mid-century vintage flavour. It was a great learning experience, and ideas came to us as we went along. We both have a background in art & photography, and we took the best bits of our house and curated them into the bus; the enamelled steel sink and stove sunk into an Art Deco Sideboard, mapped ceiling. East German vintage sofa bed re-covered in genuine tweed. It's super comfy for cosy chats and tea, while the table is the social hub of the bus. We travelled through North Wales with Thelma while she was under construction to test her out and work out what needed and have done a wet Glastonbury. Epic journeys and beautiful memories! We want you to have the same. In her previous life, Thelma was a 15-seater community bus run by Brighton and Hove council and was well looked after. We love her dearly and hope she'll take you on spectacular adventures too.
