If they have come from oxfordshire, warwickshire, Worcestershire, Berkshire, humbersideshire, and roundrotherhamandsheffieldshire, you can be sure they aint planing on going home any time soon.

Unless they have a buyer. I imagine there is quite a market for caravans right now. (Humbersideshire is now East Yorshireshire, again, incidentally).

I can't think they will be given dispensation to drive with a trailer down the Mall.

Perhaps its a cunning plan to get them impounded and crushed; I always thought Prince Philip was a good man.

so all caravans are environmently friendly because you use less water in the shower than you would in a hotel?.....

what about the fact you've had to tow the thing with a larger vehicle than you'd normally need...and that vehicle is doing up to a 1/3rd of its' normal fuel consumption

and....the hotel room is used by many different people all year round......whereas your plastic mobile chicane sits on your drive doing nowt but annoy the neighbours for most weeks of the year

what an irritating and pointless viewpoint to caravanning

sorry installer i disagree,some of my best friends have caravans ,they are normal working class hard working people,the caravan gives them the freedom to have an affordable break,they do not go out to block roads indeed they travel when the roads are clear ie first thing in the mornings

When I read about this, it stated that caravans would not be allowed down the Mall.

Saves the elite from being held up I suppose.
