Mrs Tenkaykev was chatting with ex work colleagues yesterday. One of them was explaining that they had a Caravan that they use for holidays. Mrs Tenkaykev said she could never manage the towing, and her friend explained that the Caravan is kept in storage ( down Seaton way I think) The storage company tows it to whatever site her friend wants, then her and her husband just drive to that site. When they leave, the caravan is taken back into storage.
Something I wasn’t aware of and quite a good idea .

I believe that the Caravan Club offer this facility on some of their sites. Others offer a "full season pitch" i.e. they store a van in Winter, drag it onto a pitch in Spring and leave it there till the end of the season.
CAVEAT: it is about 4 years since we sold our campervan and lapsed club membership. Things may have changed in that time......

Surly the storage costs money and they miss out on making money by hiring it out.

Just remembered that we're out for lunch today. The local pub has just reopened their kitchen. Mrs Tenkaykev are booked in for Sunday lunch at 1:00. We popped in for coffee after our organised walk on Tuesday and I noticed there were about three local cask ales available 🍺👍

There's a lovely little cafe run by the local butcher and his family next to Aldi. This looks like good value for next Friday evening.
