Hi All, on my first drive from collecting my MH and then my subsequent travelling for first stay, i must admit i couldnt believe the friendliness of other MH's. Passing on all types of road the majority of MH owners waving a hello. Is this a common occurence all over the country?
Was nice to see over the normal gestures seen by other car drivers.

We wave as often as possible when a MH is seen.
It's not a wildly waving arm as if you were waving off a loved one at the station or off first time to school but more a wave of acknowledgement at a fellow traveller.
Perhaps just a hand raised, the other hand firmly gripping the steering wheel, as a gesture of goodwill as we wend our way around the UK and abroad.
A small band of colleagues united in our form of transport, how many times do you see Bus Drivers give similar signs to each other, who wish each other well on these crowded roads we travel.
Some days we get almost a 100% response and other days much less so but on every journey we do have some reaction to our waves and they are always thankfully received by ourselves.
And, yes, I have once or twice waved at a Tesco type vehicle, and a few Horsebox drivers might have wondered why they'd had a wave, but generally it's the MH community that have been the target of our waves.
Thank you to all who have waved back at us.
