Hi there!

What a coincidence! We're in Wakefield too, in Crofton. I had to double check I hadn't replied to myself there, lol. (Sleep deprivation - two toddlers torturing us by waking sporadically most nights is enough to send you crackers..)

Have you managed to find storage for your caravan? We're struggling and it's worrying us a bit. We haven;t had chance to measure the driveway and the chap we bought it from said he'll keep it for us over xmas if we like, but would prefer to get it installed somewhere local if we can.

My husband is great at DIY but time is a problem I guess. Not a problem for small jobs, but our house is mid way through being done up, has been for years. That's why getting away in a caravan will prove useful for our sanity I think, rather than staring at part done jobs
