Yes but, I used an old axe I had lying about to do it so its quite a neat job.

......that a certain Admin used to be a caravanner weekend gypsy.....
Please let it be TB, its normally the ones that protest to much that are guilty ;D
Static mobile homes aside at the likes of Butlins (and 'cottage style' in the South of France), I have stayed in a pikey wagon 3 times in my life:

once when I was about 5, my auntie/uncle (not real relatives) looked after a campsite on Norfolk coastline, and gave us a caravan for a week;

once about 10yrs ago after a bad camping in tent trip, borrowed Mrs TheBoy's dads van to go to Matlock/Buxton;

lastly, the very first OOF meet - on bloody cold night at Santa Pod 15th October 2006 - last minute decision to borrow a van, as weather had turned bloody cold, and she thought a tent would be too cold.  As it happened, no sleep anyway due to the spotty chavs revving the nuts off their chavved up corsas
Based on this reply and the question of used to be a caravaner, I will go with AA. I think Broocie is looking for or already has a van.

After being an avid user of canvas for many a year, finally succommed to a tin tent at the summertime.  Its on a seasonal pitch, however, so does not clog up the roads like other 'weekend pikeys' do....   Still like canvas tents though....   :y

I still am, so to speak.   :y  So I think that someone is being a tad mischevious by allowing my 'van to be a smokescreen for the previous weekend pastime of others.....   ;)

Just a quick reminder to those 3 misguided ones who voted for me, as an Admin I can:

  • see who voted for what.
  • adjust postcounts
  • revoke your admin rights, mr hotel21
