Tigermouse I like your thinking, I joked yesterday to my mum that I would use my big suitcase on wheels but didn't think about the wheelie holdalls *doh* I'm off to do more googling lol
I've often thought what I would use if the great she-devil ran off with the milkman and I had to go solo possibly without transport...I decided I would use a child's push-chair. I could get a huge amount of kit in it and most public transport accept these vehicles. Plus a lot easier to push rather than a suitcase on wheels.
For peace of mind always keep a big torch, a full tin of deodorant and a lighter that works close to you when bedding down for the night.
then if clocking any intruders with a big torch doesn't work then spray the deodorant in their eyes. if you want to feel safe visiting the loo at night keep the deodorant in a pocket and a lighter in the other hand... instant flamethrower and when up in front of the judge you can tell him you acted on Impulse ;)

Hi Stokiegal...If your looking for a trolly to transport your stuff on public transport try googling fishing trollies...Sturdy two wheeled trollies fihermen use to get their gear to the river/lake..Lightweight and foldable..They are designed to withstand the rigours of uneven ground...And if mine is anything to go by can hold a fair amount of stuff....No good for backpacking(would..I imagine get a bit tiring lugging it about all day) but for house-transport-to site might be what your looking for...

I've been looking at bicycle trailers - the sort you put small children or dogs in - I went to see/touch at a bike shop yesterday and was surprised to find how light they are. You could walk one of those about with stacks of kit in very easily. They are expensive, but I see there are quite a few on auction sites ... if I ever become homeless, that's what I'd be looking at to get about the country with all the home comforts with me!

For some reason, that has really made me laugh. I can picture you with boots and billy cans haging from the pushchair.
It also reminded me of a sweet old tramp who used to be around Croydon when I was a kid. He pushed all his stuff around in an old Silver Cross pram.
Amazing family weekend with old steam engines, classic car displays, market stalls, and full catering and bar. And camping on site - Save £25 by booking in advance.
