As it's in general the quiet period for caravanners, I like most, look forward to getting back into the swing of things. We put our rubish out on a Tuesday night ready for collection the next day. I love taking the wheelie bin out to the front as it's the next best thing to moving the water barrel. Even if it is not rubbish collection time, I move it around the block just to keep my hand in. The neighbours keep giving me funny looks for some reason but I am happy as when the spring/summer comes round again, I will not be rusty. Do any other members do any thing similar?

We all have our strange caravan habits , I have my van outside our cottage , cover on , I only have one neighbour nearby , I go into my caravan at every opportunity , sit and listen to the radio , check the battery level etc .....

And the thing he cannot get his head around is that I remove clamps etc , lift up the cover and move the van with the mover every two weeks

To a new position to refresh the tyres lol

His face is a picture !

Why not just block it up for the winter? Then it's not sitting on the tyres at all.

We are winter caravaners , and try to get away as often as possible ..

You think some of you have got strange habits. I hear the bin lorry in the street and go out latter to get the bins in and still lift the lid's to see if they have been emptied, and I have seen others in our street doing the same. We all do some strange things. Sad
