Yes ;) 8-) :D :lol: Our second dinner night out, first was at the club with Wendy & Gordon, good food but very quiet, prices were ok I guess, tonight it was the Pretoria pub, great company with Bruce and Wendy, Gordon and Wendy, Margaret and myself, great food, probably the best kangaroo medallion steaks I have had todate and quite reasonable with the prices considering the size of the meal and quality, so 2 wins so far. Gordon & Wendy head out in the morning so we will be in this caravan park all on our own, not even the owners are here, very quiet and the only dog friendly caravan park in the area.

What is it with caravan parks that most don't won't your dog to stay there, but if you camp elsewhere then they whinge their head off? I will never be able to figure that one out.

Allow me to enlighten you;

1) First you enroll Bandit in a kennel class for the duration, then
2) you sell your Coaster in order to be cashed up and purchase a family sedan* to travel to your intended destination for which
3) you have pre-booked your cabin at the Claytons Caravan park, where
4) you offload the burden of the cash you acquired for the Coaster accessing all the town excursions displayed in brochures on the front desk which earn a handsome kickback for the cabin park. Upon your return home
5) you are truly relaxed, stress free from your carefree cabin park stay without the concern of maintaining or providing space for that so-called headache of a motorhome.

*airfare to wherever you wish to travel is an alternative option with taxi or airport shuttle transit.

I enrolled Bandit in a Kennel Class once before.
He told me that he didn't like it because they wouldn't let him look out the window and the scenery didn't change anyway.
And the Kennel Class is more expensive than a Caravan Park. So I would have to spend twice as much. Maybe I could sell the Coaster twice. Yeah, that'd work.

If dogs and cats are not welcome at the c jails then neither are we..
I had a good idea, (to me it could be funny) and no disrespect is intended.
I wanted G to go into all the caravan jails and ask for a site suitable for our size van but a tad out of the way of the other happy inmates, when they asked "why" he was to say that his wife has Tourette's and comes out with some really really inappropriate words at any time of the day and night and in front of anyone inc children. When they all say "there is no room at the inn" (as they would) we would have no choice but to free camp in the nearest suitable spot, Of course you know he wouldn't do this but wouldn't it be a fun thing to try?? I see Martins wife being in for this one????

This little caravan park is up for sale and is dog friendly and I thought about buying it..... then I realised I would be dealing with people who chose to stay at caravan parks rather than free camps...... so I put the idea where it belonged :lol:
