I have had to surrender my license Again due to ill healt and so kay has had to have a go at towing. we went away before my license went back and kay had trial run towing ....no trouble so when i had to give it bacvk again wshe decided to give it a go properly and booked us into ORCHARD PARK in Tuxford , off we went to the storage picked up the van and off we went , I apologised to her before we set off for any interfering i may do while she was driving  but i had no concerns at all, ok so it was'nt a million miles away but she coped brilliantly and were off again tomorrow to Sherwood forest holiday park until weds. shes already booked 2 more sites in between a reunion in Blackpool and a holiday in cyprus and then one in Bridlington so she has really got the bit between her teeth. As i said no stopping her now

Well done Kay, good on ya,

My mrs wouldn't even contemplate towing, when I asked what she would do if anything happened and I was to break a leg or something while away, she said she would ring her brother to come fetch us. so you really do have my upmost respect Kay, and any other Lady towers here.

Yes, well done!  I don't like driving these days let alone towing and we are going to France so I hope OH does not have a problem.  I suppose when you are faced with it you have to get on with it if you want to carry on enjoying caravanning, so you are proving you are made of strong stuff.
