Thanks for making our day! (1 Viewer)

While driving back from a weekend at Bodnant Caravan Park (which I can recommend) we were driving along the A5 between Corwen and Llangollen when a motorhome was approaching from the opposite direction. I lifted my hand to give the customary wave. At the same time the other driver did likewise, then his passenger lifted a giant 2ft wide hand and waved it back to us frantically, giving us a huge smile.

If that was you. A big, thank you. It made us laugh and we smile just talking about it. Sometimes the simple things are the best

Oh brill, my wife waves and includes horse box, vans and the odd caravan in who she waves at. Seldom get a wave back, gets well chuffed when she does.

When we first got our van I have to admit to waving to an ASDA delivery van and a horsebox. No I don't drink and drive

Hubby usually concentrating therefore I wave instead of him as we are new MH’s

 

[Chipster]

We had the same up near Pitlochry a few weeks ago!

A couple of years back when in France, we gave the customary wave to the approaching MH to be greeted by a big green hand fixed to their wiper blade, which they switched on as we approached. Laughed, I nearly p**ed myself.

We have one of these for waving at the other motorhomes

When we had the motorhome, people waved, but now we have a grey camper van they dont!

I wave at every motorhome, camper or self build. It’s mainly the motorhomes that wave back. I enjoy waving at the “stealth “ camper vans ( the Maxfan and solar panels make it hard to be very stealth )

Coming back from Chester last Sunday I must have waved at maybe 7 motorhomes!! Everyone waved back

 

[bobnick]

I like waving to the snide police ANPR vans parked up.

 

[DDJC]

Always wave at motorhomes and PVCs (not VWs campervans obviously). Nearly always get one back.

Has been hard work driving out of Pembrokeshire in the van, hands are knakered through giving the vans coming in a wave, which has got smaller and quicker through the summer, ……..and still they come

 

[SpeedyDux]

I wave but don't get much response as a grey driver in a grey PVC. Not even from other Rapido PVCs! Wassup guys?

In the old VW camper I used to get waves especially from youngsters in cars we were following.

May I gently direct you to the groundbreaking statistical study I did on waving a couple of years ago...:

To wave or not? The results are in....

It’s a perennial question - should you wave to other MoHoers or not? Well, we’ve passed 49 mohos in 7 days in the Highlands and Islands - around half of them in the last 24 hours between Skye, Glen Shiel and through the Great Glen. The rest of the time was very quiet. We waved at all of them...

As with all good science, it needs someone to attempt reprodcue the results please.

I'm particularly interested in someone further investigating the "Belgian Paradox" that my study identified - ie all the Belgians I know are miserable gits, but 100% of Belgian study participants returned the wave.

Now you know how The Queen feels. Rumour has it that she wasn't always waving but just passing comment at The Duke's flatulence

 

[Mrsambulancekidd]

We wave, it was such a good feeling when we were allowed to take our MH out of covid jail.
I have even waved at MH's & campers when I've been gardening at the front, some waved back, then smile when they spotted we had a MH.

Yeah, but how many times have you been out in the car and waved at a motorhome?
I've done it!

 

[old-mo]

I usually wave.... But if I am on the phone or adjusting my sat-nav...
there are a few occasions I don`t..
