Friends Geoff C and Pauline (and their caravan) came to stay for the night at our hosts rural property. Their Chateau caravan was backed carefully up the drive, with Geoff taking care not to get tangled up on the overhanging corners of the roof. With the door of the European caravan on the right side, it needed to be turned around otherwise they would be exiting the van close to the fence. Easy peasy, with a Rhyno caravan mover fitted to the wheel, it was no trouble at all.

We had never seen one of these gizmos in action, and it certainly was a easy way to move the caravan around 180 degrees. Geoff had the control pad in his hands, pressed a few buttons, and the caravan moved easily around, first this way, then that way, until it was positioned exactly where it should be.
Look, no hands
It’s all done with this
These caravan movers are all the rage in UK, we understand, but not so common out here in New Zealand. They certainly save a lot of physical pushing and pulling on the single axle vans, but don’t know how it would work on a tandem axle van like ours.
Pauline decided that she needed a gardening fix and spent an hour or two on her knees pulling out some weeds. Rather her than me – I hate gardening!
