Know exactly what you mean feels like your on holiday, ours is in the garden and we are always popping in and out.

We use it as a spare bedroom when the family come, they tend to think they are putting us out sending us out to sleep in the van but in actual fact we love it, any excuse to spend the night in it.

We used to do that with the caravan as it was round the back, unfortunately the motorhome is on the front drive and we get strange looks off the neighbours. Although i did go out to "do some work" the other day with my glass of wine,  didn't get much work done!

I wish ours was on our drive way so that I could sit in it, with 2 teenage girls, 2 border collies, 2 cats and a husband I need somewhere to go and 'hide'!  

I am loving the suggestion someone else made on here about taking a flask and heading off to where it's stored for a few hours........wonder how long it would take them to find me????

That was probably me. I've been up there this afternoon with a can of Coke, a slab of fruit cake and my latest book - didn't sit in it though, it was far too warm, so I got my folding chair, sat outside and pretended I was camping

Thank you one and all, my sanity is restored !!

My neighbour came across and sat with me in our caravan at the weekend bringing a box of choclates with her. So guess I don't have to worry what she thinks anymore

Not enough room on our drive to keep it at home, but if we did I think I would be using it to hide away from the kids with a good book for a couple of hours.
would seem a shame not to use it if it's there.
