A Hollywood film production company are in town shooting one of next year’s [hopefully] blockbuster movies. We heard on the grapevine that they’re  looking for North American- or Iraqi-looking extras to act as either soldiers or journalists, so we paid a visit to their Casting Zone — a make-shift office in one of the local hotels. Turns out we couldn’t quite complete the registration form as we didn’t have our Spanish resendency details with us at the time (we’ll take them along next week).

One of the production folks also displayed a passing interest in using our vehicle in the film — it’s a 1982 Volkswagon Transporter (internally converted to a camping car). As promised, there’s a photo of it below. And, yes, we’d be happy for you to change the livery as you see fit — we understand that military transporters aren’t generally white with Web-addresses emblazened down the side (they’ll peel off with hot water).

One thing though: Please don’t blow her up. Or if you do, please give us some money for her!
