That's when I decided to get a caravan or a motorhome

Re: Caravan Club members!
Thats what I thought too Barry, we always had a caravan when the children were at school.It was a bit like the TA. My husband made out a detail, the children took it in turns to get water and take the rubbish, I cooked and he washed up,on holiday we were allowed to not do it to counting,you know ... set the table 23 take the rubbish45 etc.... No I made that bit up.!We were rigimented, really.

The hotels that we use you can have a meal at any time of the day 24/7, as for the beds they are what you choose.
Dont get me wrong, my daughter is a CCM and often goes off for week-ends and every year they go to France to visit relatives, who were killed in WW1, graves.
It is just that I do like my comforts and being waited on.
