Of course you name them, it's like boats, they always have a name don't they?

Our present van is Mooney as shes a Sterling Moonstone, the last one was Ellie Elddis,one before Abigail Abbey.

Do you pour a drop of Cava (cannot afford Champagne) over the front wing as well or is it just me that does that for good luck?

Sam-ee-ad !!!!

Our 'van in called Millie (short for Mildred) - before the caravan we had a folding camper called Zippy (lots of zips!!), which we towed with a Discovery called George (George and Zippy), so when we got the caravan (obviously a girl - I can't believe you can't tell when sex your caravan is!!), she had to have a name to go with George - so Mildred (Millie) it was!!

Our Dandy Destiny was Doodle and the Esterel is Ethelburt! No doubt all our future purchases will have a name too.
