Well done!!!!  I towed for the 1st time last year but luckily i had my dh with me.  It was nowhere near as bad as i thought it would be but dh hasn't let me do it since so maybe i was worse than i thought lol.  I'm sure you will soon get used to it the more you do it.

Well done again!!!

Well Done, Congratulations to you, keep brave and steady lol, its a great feeling, I am hoping to tow tomorrow, we are going away and leaving are teen at home alone.

Ahhh cornwall yeah I should hopefully be ok to tow down, if not and I pass on the towing I have my tent on standby (or buy a new one)

I have no one to sit at my side and take over if I feel the need to stop lol...so i'm afraid it's all the way or no way

I am also off tomorrow for our 1st weekend in our van really looking forward to it, hopefully we get there (and back) with all my nerves intact

Congratulations on your first tow and happy caravanning.

well done celeste74, I had to stop driving due to ill health and Kay had to do the driving and towing, she's done 3 trips now and had no probs at all in fact she looks forward to it so keep smiling and happy vanning.

Good for you! I remember how nervous I was the first time I towed and then how chuffed I was with myself when we arrived at our first site. I couldn't stop smiling! Well done and I hope you have the same feeling.

oh yea i remember 1st time and will do for ever, it was 11pm and went to pick 1st van up as we needed her coz our mare was due foal asap and i wouldnt leave alone in field so we decided to buy van and i lived in field with her for few weeks, well all escalated from there we loved it so much we bought a van for us both to away in and an awning plus sleep pods for the kids and off we went well all i can say woooooooooo it was scary down motorway we went and lorries flying by us all was sooooooo wrong we came on here and asked WHY  is our van not staying on track we were on, and questions were answered with great help. thanks to yous ALL

all i can say is you go girl coz we girls can tow as well as you BOYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I towed for the first time 2 weeks ago and agree completely with you, it wasnt as bad as I thought but wasnt as good either.

The reversing really has me baffled, I know what to do but still cant get it to go where I want. I am just looking into courses to see if they will help.
