Been away in our MH for the last 2 weeks around England & Scotland proudly wearing my Funster sticker on the windowscreen of the MH.
also waving at loads of fellow Motorhomes traveling in the opposite direction.
When someone never waved back this would reward me of 5 mins of piss taking of me from my Son and Wife :) , but I would not be put off I would still wave on :)
Well tonight we arrived in Ayr and while locking up after parking up a fellow Funster noticed the Funster sticker and came over and introduced himself.
@Brendan thanks for coming over and introducing yourself :) meeting a fellow Funster has put the icing on my cake ^^
P.S as a matter of interest to the people that read this , do you wave at other Motorhomes coming in the opposite direction ?
Help save me from more stick from the Mrs and Son by saying yes :)

A big YES from us!! I wave at all motorhomes and even when we are passing one!!
Have been known to do a one fingered wave under the dash when they don't wave back!!:LOL: Just a silly game we play!
Actually got waved at by the driver and passenger on the A 57 yesterday and it was a French number plate going towards Sheffield!! I was well excited!!as were they!!
We waved a lot in France but A class don't wave back much! Lol:LOL:

When we first started MHing it used to be a betting game with my first wife to see who could guess weather someone would wave or not.
She got suspicious when she was losing more often than not.
You see I worked out that there is a better chance of getting a wave if you wave first. She eventually spotted the surreptitious raising of my right hand (and I narrowly avoided hers!) but by this time the habit was formed.
So yes, I'm a waver:hugs:

Some like to think they are cool and only wave with a finger( not a rude one) therefore keeping 2 hands on the steering wheel at all times for safety reasons!! But I like the excitable wave variety! ( rather like myself!!)

:(I was a waver in my previous MH but now that I gave a PVC it appears people do t want to wave at me!!

When my sister first got her MH she was keen to become a waver, the first vehicle she enthusiastically waved at was a horse box!!!

Yes I've been known to wave at ice cream vans, waitrose tesco etc vans and the worst faux par is waving to a white van man in error! :rolleyes:
That wrong wave can manifest itself into " an adjusting ones hair movement "!!:sneaky:

I don't receive waves, just rather rude hand gestures. Which makes me think 'they must know me;)'

I save and I also get stick from SWMBO

I also find posh motorhomers are less inclined to wave at us lowly vanners in our PVCs
