Me and the bf brought a caravan, as we have 4 chidren between us, we thought it be a nice thing for us to do as no more kiddies for us, so we ordered our baby, Sprite musketeer td, anyway i wanted to give a name to the caravan and we have called her liberty (means freedom). what do you call your caravan if you give them a name?

We don't normally name things, but when we're away on holiday and fancy a little rest in the afternoon, we'll head back to camp to siesta.  So our tent is now affectionately known as Esther (let's go and see Esther )

People & pets have names. Caravans & cars do not in our house. That doesn't have a name either.
