Got to laugh at this caravan

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1391807/All-aboard-worlds-tiniest-caravan--6ft-long-towed-mobility-scooter.html

The £5,500 QTvan has been fitted with a full sized bed, a 19in TV, tea making facilities and even bookshelves.


Yannick Read invented the petite home, which is small enough to be taken on the pavement while being towed by a mobility scooter at a top speed of 2mph

    Pmsl, that's fantastic and completely ridiculous hehehe. Bet the telly would make it really lop side weight wise too.

    Cute idea for if you do need a lie down while out, but seriously?

    Ahh that's just tickled me pink :)

    That looks oddly like some of the first class suites on planes, minus the nice lady to make up the bed and tuck you in! ;)
    Gone ... or have I?

    Not suitable for fatties or a tall person, probably only suitable for smurfs.

    Christ almighty can you imagine having to trundle behind that either on the pavement or road.
    *SIGH*

    Thanks for this I needed a laugh :)
    I suffer from depression, agoraphobia and panic attacks.

    On a good day I can get showered, unfortunately they are few and far between at the moment so you better stand downwind of me. :p

    Rather pricey, and if you wanted to go on holiday from London to Scotland you would have to set off 3 weeks before your holiday date to get there on time:rotfl:

    How on earth could you watch the telly whilst in bed? It is at completely the wrong angle for doing so comfortably.
    We made it! All three boys have graduated, it's been hard work but it shows there is a possibility of a chance of normal (ish) life after a diagnosis (or two) of ASD. It's not been the easiest route but I am so glad I ignored everything and everyone and did my own therapies with them.
    Eldests' EDS diagnosis 4.5.10, mine 13.1.11 eekk - now having fun and games as a wheelchair user.

    It might have one of those bracket things on that you pull out and twist around, either that or you could go outside and view it though the window.
