    Mollysmum. I'm a bit confused with your reply to me 'I was just following on from your sweeping statement...' I had never made a comment before you on this discussion so I don't know how you were '...just following on from your sweeping statement...'

    If anybody attends a towing course they learn the rudiments of towing. which includes reversing. 

    Attending one course alone, does not make you a better caravanner. 

    Practice,practice, practice. is what make people proficient. 

    There are plenty of open spaces,:- Industrial estates at the weekend, Car parks at quiet times ETC where the inexperienced Caravanner can hone their manouvering skills to their heart's content. 

    Hitch up the van and spend a couple of hours or so practicing. every so often

    Soon they will be able to carry out those manouvers which they thought they could never do.

    Just a bit of innocent 'old age' confusion with who quoted what by MM EmbarassedLaughing He's usually on the ball so blame the tablets Winking

    Although in his defence, this forum does make it difficult in who posted what, sometimes if you backspace too far a reply will become an extension of the quote Sad

    dwlg .... apologies Embarassed 

    My reply should have been to Brian & Elaine .... I'm on my phone and as Dave suggested, your reply got tied up in the quote lines.

    Sorry Laughing

    I couldn't agree more. Reversing is not a black art. as with most things in life you have to practise, practise practise
