    Just read through it all again in tears of laughter.

    Newbies, note this well. This is the sort of standard we need to get this board back up to.

    I gotta say lads,

    the caravan forum invasion and the resulting creativity in the humour in the threads was one of the biggest laughs this forum has had in a long time

    we need more of it

However we've had a couple of 'scary' moments on the M1 in high winds where the caravan came close to tipping over. The kids don't particularly like travelling in it as they think it 'moves around too much', but it seems I have little choice other than buying a 4 seater car which I am loathe to do. Any ideas? Is it possible to make the caravan more stable?',”

    And

    “I am having a problem with a lack of power when towing my caravan that I bought on Ebay (B I Jubilee 1993 2 berth end bathroom, gas toilet, 4 ring hob, oven and grill, hot and cold water, fly screens and blinds fully equip, full awning and annex). When I switch the traction control setting to off road + tow -2 my car ( Mercedes CL500 ) will not go over 30mph. I telephoned the Mercedes dealer who said I need to upgrade to a CL600. I an disappointed because I thought caravanning would be a cheap option to save money. I’m also having difficulty in keeping up the payments on the car. Any suggestions welcome.”

    I think that was one of our summer tours - must be a mass emailing even though most of us ended up banned

    The smile is occasionally used to mean that instead of typing one thing, you meant something else.

    Stu was implying that instead of laughing at the email, you had the urge to start a new thread about which one to buy - a reference to some of your other threads, e.g. what 4x4 to buy etc.

    I assume that people are getting these after the CUK holiday there, whenever that was.

    he meant that instead of "and laughed" it should be replaced with "and set up a new thread about which motorhome.."

    What an odd concept - surely the idea of a campervan is to explore the place you want to see, not go on a guided tour?
