When we told our friends and reles that we had bought a caravan most of them reacted as if we had completely lost the plot. You could tell they were thinking ...poor things....out there in the cold in some muddy field with no facilities and only a gas stove to boil the kettle, whatever has possessed them.
Those that have since visited us in the van have been left speechless at just how civilised, even luxurious caravaning life really is.
My favourite tale is when we invited one of our friends for dinner in the van one evening. She arrived in the visitors car park, threw open the boot and started unloading picnic baskets, cups, plates, cutlery... you name it, it was there.
We gently led her to the van, put a large glass of chilled Chardonnay in her hand and told her she could put the plastic beakers away......
Anybody else witnessed examples of amusing caravaning misconceptions?
