What a great festival! Thank you for filming and sharing - and so quickly, too! I clicked on the info link and thus descended down something of a rabbit hole. Interestingly, the Municipal Corporations Act (1835), that unwittingly saw off the various Waits around the country, received the royal assent from King William IV on September 9th, so it's around the 289th anniversary of that. We have some ancestors called 'Waite' so that's another rabbit hole calling. Glad I subbed a while back! Best wishes, Laura

The Go-Pod is the smallest caravan that has the cooking facillities inside. Slightly bigger is the TAB 320 (which I've had a look around and liked) The Barefoot (which is a much more expensive but beautiful caravan) the Freedom caravans which I've not seen in person but look good on paper. I suspect the Go-Pod is the easiest tow but I think all of them are for novices. I heartily recommend
