Subject: Dear Mum Letter... Brilliant! A mother passing by her son's bedroom was astonished to see the bed was nicely made, and everything was picked up. Then, she saw an envelope, propped up prominently on the pillow. It was addressed, 'Mum'. With the worst premonition, she opened the env...

Hi all. I am toying with the idea of selling my caravan and tow vehicle and getting into a motor home. Why, because I won't have to hitch/unhitch just drive away. I am not to worried about towing a small car or having a scooter on the rear. I have been looking at Hino Rainbow's and Toyota Coasters. My though...
