I have been a member since 2008, back in the day when you paid to be a member of the Caravan club. Over the years Motorhomes have become increasingly popular, I understand that. For whatever reason the club felt to be inclusive of this fact by rebranding and renaming. I understand that also. What I am having difficulty with is the misinterpretation of Motorhome. More and more I am seeing camper vans, you know, those VW things, or worse, (see picture), which in no way can be described as a motor home. The caravan club has lost its way and has morphed into the 'Friendly club', you know the one I mean!! Motor homes have awnings, their owners generally have breakfast inside, campervan owners don't have the space, so cook breakie and 'camp' out to do most of their activities. I don't actually care too much, however, one should not desribe oneself as the Caravan and Motorhome club when one has become the Caravan and Camping club under a different name. My photo depicts the sort of situation that should be policed and stopped.
