I did comment on how well you were going, we only just cought up after finally getting out of the site. I wasen't sure what kind of speed your Foden does. Are the indicators on your caravan meant to come on when breaking?

Well I'm not sure "meant to come on" is the right phrase, but we were aware that they did. However that was as good as we could get them in the rain at 5am on Saturday morning whilst re-wiring after arriving with the lorry to collect the living van only to find we had no brake lights at all! We have traced the cause of the problem now though so they will be fixed for next time out.
