I tow, I'm 32 and because we have now gone to a bigger van I've got to do my B+E however, at the moment while I'm practicing I tow with L plates  Fantastic fun.

I towed for 4 hours on our last trip through all the mountains of mid wales (I even towed round Devil's bridge), hubby has a bad habbit of falling asleep in the car

I tow, have to as the other half has MS, would advise all ladies to have a go and know how to tow just in case their OH cant tow for some reason.

I don't tow yet - can't even drive! - but I'm working on it.

When me and OH split up three months ago (he wanted it, not me) we had only had the caravan 12 months. We had put so much work into refurbishing it when we got it and we'd only used it four weekends - I really love that little 'van so I wasn't ready to give it up after so short a time, but unless I take action I'll never go anywhere in it again. I'm now taking driving lessons, and once I've passed my test I'll clock up some driving miles and a bit of experience then book on a caravan towing course.

I must admit that the whole concept of driving lessons, theory and practical tests, driving my own (large) vehicle and eventually towing a 'van is a bit daunting, but reading through the posts on here is giving me the courage to see this through. So hopefully in the not-too-distant future there will be another lady tower on UKCS!
