Showing my age and qute proud of it....
« on: 08 April 2011, 22:57:07 »
Me and her are at our tin tent at the seaside, dinner is done, and now relaxing with some 'strong spirits' as is said up this way after doing a scan of the freeview channels. Lo and behold - Neil diamond in concert!  Not every misic fans idea of wonderful but easy on our ear, even though his age is showing.

Chill.......    8-)

36? You'll be drawing your pension soon. I'm 28 and love my caravan.

Conway Twitty is where it's at!

"Vanning" can be a civilised affair & as said you don't need to go far to be in another world but with all the home comforts around you. I'm looking forward to spending a few days in my little Elddis @ the Cleethorpes Transport Extravaganza this coming BH weekend.

   A few days in the van in a field with good mates, food, drink & surrounded by classic cars...my nirvana! :y

   Just hope there's no fisticuffs this year. :(

I get 50mpg when I go camping & touring on mine, I also don't hold anyone up or any damage to the roads  :)

Tad more economical than burger van holding up 100's of cars getting about 15mpg  ;)

One assumes you travel at the speed limits set for the road you are on. When towing my caravan I do the same. On a national speed limited road .. You are limited to 60 mph, I am limited to 50 mph and an HGV (over 7.5 tonnes) is limited to 40 mph. I strongly suggest therefore .. that the queue of "100's of cars" (and I've never seen one of them travelling at the national sped limits) is probably an HGV and NOT a caravan ???

One also assumes you pass such inane comments to all HGV drivers you meet ??? At least I hope you do as they might well "correct" your attitude. .. :)


Highway code ... section 124 and as you probably don't have a copy ...
