Well I reckon us TT and FC bunch are a pretty unique group so my suggestion is that we give each other a flash (of the headlights) and a wave when we see each other, with or without the mobile fun factory in tow. Maybe it's having been a two whell motor man that does it, who knows? Any thoughts?

We always wave and smile. Usually we get strange looks in return but I think that's because people aren't used to other people being friendly towards them nowadays.

Perhaps we should be like the masons and have a special sign.

We tend to wave at other Townace drivers - even if we're not towing the tt - as there aren't that many Townaces about now, but we very often wave to other campers anyway. So if you see a grey Toyota Townace with a big eagle transfer on the front give us a wave - we have a musical horn so we'll play you a tune!

Once on the M5 we saw a transporter with no less than 6 pathfinders on it. We were well chuffed when he waved back!

I used to own a Mini and everyone who ownes an old style mini flashes and waves . It really does make you feel a part of something.
