Well this is my “truck” with its “trailer”. The car (a 4x4, but with not much
ground clearance) has about 14,000 miles on it, although it’s nearly 3 years
old; I bought it about 6 weeks ago. The caravan has less than 500 miles on it,
bought at about the same time. We are using the pair of vehicles to spend more
time relaxing in the countryside. This is a field in Northamptonshire, near
the Grand Union canal, at a village called Stoke Bruerne.
