Thread: The Land Rover Wave and some blokes....

See what happens As I said in other thread that is typical behavior of a Harley raider who could not afford a Fergurson T20 tractor
I waved so many Defenders that I am suffering of tennis elbow
I guess that is because I drive a Disco with Tasmanian number plates in the big island

I think I know the cause of your problem

I'm not waving at you - look at my fist, it's clenched!

Don't get those either, Ron

BTW, I'm one of those that pull over on single lane roads every now and again to let the vehicles behind, get past.
I'm on holidays and have all the time in the world, those behind maybe on schedules, etc.
This is where a camera on the back of the caravan becomes handy.

Cheers,

I wish more caravanners were like you, Ron. I notice that a pic I saw of your can had the UHF channel on it. That's a good idea. When you move over I can thank you, or if I see a problem I can call you.

Too many caravanners seem to want to speed up when the road opens up thus making it difficult to pass without exceeding the limit then they slow down when it's back to single lane.

Hang on - a lot of bloody caravan-less drivers to the same thing!

Excellent idea that.

This Freelander waves . Only problem I have is I have very slow reflexes (= slow brain) so by the time I realise a LR has waved at me I'm normally in the next subrub and its all too late.

I got a wave from an fellow FL2 driver the other day. Thats the first time I've received a wave back from an FL2 (I've only seen about 4) but the poor lady who was driving looked a bit confused. Probably thinking who the hell is that!

When I lived on Norfolk Island, we all lifted a finger from the steering wheel to passing vehicles - it's an Island tradition. It confused tourists.
