We used to store our caravan in the back garden of our old house, pre 1982, and kept it for a while alongside the garage in our current house, happy days.

Spent 10+ years doing mainly Cornwall and Devon with forays into Pembrokeshire, Southwold, Anglesay and the Cotswolds. We had lots of wonderful holidays while our boys were growing up.

I was reading in this mornings paper that the Royal Navy's oldest class of frigates only spend 13 weeks each at sea every year, the rest of the time they are undergoing repairs or their crew are being rested.
Maybe the Navy should sub-contract their operations to P&O, they manage to run their ships 365 days a year, with only a 2/3 week refit every 5 years.

Already have our Oil Supplier's version plus the good ol' Countryfile Calendars so we have no use at all for the P&O one.
