{"product_id":"9781800757622","title":"It Started with a Van : A true story of a home on wheels built on hope, carpet glue and decent brews - Andy and Claire Stocks","description":"\u003cp\u003eWhat do you do when your car breaks down during a pandemic, nobody will fix it, and you end up buying a carpenter's van with no windows, no experience, and absolutely no idea what you're doing?If you're Andy, you convert it into a campervan. You install a diesel heater, carpet the walls, put a coffee machine on the worktop, and drive to Lake Como. If you are Claire, you make a lot of tea. It Started with a Van is the true story of how a faulty Mercedes, a bolt that took two weeks and angle grinder to remove, and a YouTube channel that started with five views led two people from Barnsley on the adventure they never planned and couldn't stop having. It is a book about a van, a marriage, a dog called Pablo, and the difference between vision and reality. Told in two voices, with no agreement on the timeline and considerable disagreement about most of the details.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Andy and Claire Stocks","offers":[{"title":"304 pages \/ 16\/07\/2026 \/ Travel writing","offer_id":57208795431287,"sku":"9781800757622","price":12.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0682\/9454\/1624\/files\/9781800757622.jpg?v=1782129372","url":"https:\/\/gulpfictionbooks.com\/products\/9781800757622","provider":"Gulp Fiction","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
