Caravans

I suspect that the nearby street lamp will be enough to deem it 'lit'.

I am concerned that the roaming vandals we get around here some nights, will set it in motion and it will roll into my car.
The caravan will not be insured.

I could park elsewhere but like to have my car in view when I hear passing groups of yobs --which I suppose he has done, rather than put it in the parking area at the end of the culdesac, where no one can see it.

I will wait and see whether the binwagon gets past it easily on Tuesday and the school swim bus gets past OK on Wednesday.
I suspect that another neighbour who has it in full view on the ground floor may report it to the highways dept.

This neighbour used to live in a caravan with the gyppos, so we are a liitle more concerned than most about what might happen next.
 
To be classed as lit it must have its own lighting not be relient on street lighting.

I would never dream of leaving our caravan on the street more than the one night before going away somewhere. Our is stored over near Kirkham. Most caravan insurance won't cover you whilst parked unhitched from the car and with ours if we stop at services and leave it unattended we have to put the hitchlock on.


We bought ours in August last year. Its a 25 foot long twin axle jobie (Lunar Quasar 615). We wanted one with a definate 'bedroom' for Siobhan so when she goes to bed we can close it off so we don't disturb her. I always went camping as a kid (tents first then caravans) and loved it. We bought it as we want to do something a bit more constructive with the weekends than just nipping into town and then pottering about. We decided to store it near kirkham as we feel it will be easier if we spend time round the fylde coast area to just wizz over with no caravan then drag it to a site close by. If we decide to go up the lakes then we are only ~10 mins from the M6. The storage place is really good (Gold standard CSSA ) and cheap (240 quid a year)

We don't have an awning yet as I can't be bothered putting one up/ drying it out of its wet when you pull it down etc. Hence our choice to go for a huge thing :D

Ours weighs 1250 kg and to pull it the Volvo weighs 1700kg. You can't pull more than your car weighs or is rated to if built after 1998. There is a good site for checking here

Useful info ref lighting - thanks
The local tinkers/gyppos are his friends so they aren't likely to steal it :(
Now that I have broadcast its presence, perhaps someone else might.

not that I am encouraging anyone - I like the way he disappears for months on end in the summertime :D
 
Stop messing about woman, just set it on fire. Before you do, please give Slinky time to get over and watch, she has a thing for Firemen :D
 
Just Slinky Neil???

I thought if there was a half decent fire half the female membership of Accyweb suddenly goes quiet.... :D
