Now answer me this question: Why do caravans have pseudo-names that sound like 'Conference suites' in golf-clubs and provincial hotels?

Did it have a proper, proper ironic caravan name? You know the kinda' thing... Caravan names by their very nature, are names only a bloke with a gold-plated 3-iron and a plastic front-door could not have a chuckle with.
It seems with caravans the name is everything. As I trotted across the caravan site to unload the heaven scent contents of my chemical khazi, I saw all of these. I mean. tell me these aren't awesome. The Excellency The Kingdom The Royale Buccaneer Ambassador Diplomat Pursuit Regency Laser Crusader Stellar Explorer Breeze Conqueror Challenger Bermuda And of course... The Champagne. Then it came to me, the mind behind these was a misjudged and flawed-genius. (Now the An%l test) Try prefixing 'An%l' before any caravan name. If it works, and you'll see that not all do, you'll can grasp why, where it doesn't, a caravan is a poor seller. Some of these names are just perfect. Anyone got more?

From another post about towing capacities, we have the 'charisma'.
Doubt me? http://www.volvoforums.org.uk/showthread.php?t=267523 Forgive me: I nearly spat out my tea. I love caravan names. Someone, somewhere is always having an wry smirk. We're to understand this one has... 'charisma'. FFS. Even the OP tacitly admits the joke. He was the one careful to use a small 'c'. You be the judge.
