I use a rather elderly TomTom which is still pretty accurate - I can buy a special trucking/caravanning model which speciically avoids narrow roads, low bridges etc. - but at £300 plus, I'll rely on the combination of satnav and good ole paper map. There is some free software on the web called 'Tyre' which allows you to plan a route, and then it gives you the facility to follow the entire route on Google street view so that you can see if there are aany danger areas etc. The Rover pulls the caravan so effortlessly that I have to keep reminding myself that it's there. Even on windy days, the Rover is heavy enough that it doesn't get pulled around by the 'van - this particular Rover doesn't get wagged by its tail - bit of an odd metaphor that

Pretty close Derek - got the car to wash and hoover out, levels and tyre pressures to check ( I always add 3 or 4 psi to the rears when towing) and that's about it - that's tomorrow's job
Saturday - we're off to see Mrs Brown's Boys live show at Newcastle - our daughter got us tickets as a Christmas present - so that's the day taken up.
