Is this the UK's Tiniest Camper Van? I saw this tiny camper on George Clarke's Amazing Spaces.  David Motley who runs Hide and Stitch, a furniture-making business, decided to convert a 1960s Lambretta three-wheeler into a tiny camper that he and his two son's could go away in.  I think it looks really cute. This is always parked just outside Wimborne advertising sheds :)

Sinatra House In the late 1940s, after making his first million dollars, the late, great Frank Sinatra wanted a new weekend house built at Palm Springs.   The house was designed by architect, E Stewart Williams and at 4500 square feet, with  4 bedrooms, 7 bathrooms and a piano shaped swimming pool still manages to have that WOW factor. What's more you can rent this property for holidays, weddings or corporate events.   How cool is that? ( http://www.sinatrahouse.com )
