Evening all.

As a motorhomer I am used to being able to park at motorway services, move into the habitation section and use all the facilities, take a brief nap etc. So how does this work with a caravan? Can you enter a caravan when it's hitched to the car? Do you have to wind down all the legs? Do you need to put the jockey wheel down?

Sorry for asking what are probably daft questions but having now done a towing course, gotten my head around towing weights etc I'm thinking of all the more day-to-day functionality that must be different to a motorhome.

Thanks

New to this game too and getting my first van this week. But the Electric Flag pole....Its true.

I go to few UK music festivals in a tent each year at the moment and you will be surprised at how may flag poles have flashing lights all the way up them; and this is without the benefit of the Free Electric as all the camp sites are 'Off Grid". But as as the poster mentioned, great for finding your pitch drunk in the pitch dark.
