Poppy's friend had his caravan stolen yesterday from his driveway. The caravan was going to be traded in on a new van like our own. The friend usually puts a lock on the hitch to stop it being towed away, but as it was being traded the next day he thought he wouldn't do it... The van was found a short time late...
