Family HolidaysBack in the 80s when my Dad got made redundant (hello Dad!), he spent all the redundancy money on one of those big motor caravans.
Us kids loved it, apart from when my sister threw up on my sleeping bag, but looking back I'm not so sure my mum did. There was a certain tension every time the big van was even mentioned, let alone driven around France for weeks on end with her still having to cook and do all the washing.
What went wrong, what went right, and how did you survive the shame of having your family with you as a teenager?

Art in the loosLast one, I promise. Camped the family at Hendra near Newquay once. A busy site. Couldn't understand what went on after dark because nearly every morning the site residents were greeted with shit artwork smeared all over the loo cubicle walls. The surprising thing was the sheer quantity because if memory serves me rightly there were at least 10 cubicles and each one had a healthy quantity pasted all over the walls.
