I think our 2009 summer weather will do more to entice folks back to continental holidays than anything else and yes, I think you are correct that come the 2010 caravan season, we will return to sites with plenty of room and sensible prices.
Folks are not buying new vans and hence the number of caravan manufacturers that are going to the wall. The cheap deals on one tent, 4 sleeping bags and 4 lilos for a 100 quid are not aimed at those who take camping seriously or those that intend to have camping holidays for now on.
Once the "fun" of camping/caravanning on a muddy site where it has rained for 10 days out of 14 has worn off, Mammy and Pappy will be booking their next summer Spanish resort by Christmas and to hell with the cost.
In the meantime I am looking forward to all the kiddiewinkies going back to school when we can then get away to enjoy the peace and quiet of some low season caravanning.
