2012 is going to be a fantastic year for Great Britain, a chance to really appreciate our fantastic country and to celebrate all things British. Two major landmark events will make this the case. The first will be the 2012 London Olympics, the first Olympic Games to be hosted in Britain since the post-Second World War 1948 games. The opening and closing ceremonies will be a fantastic chance for countries around the world to see the best of what Britain has to offer, for the thousands of people coming around the world to experience a British holiday, and for British people themselves to take great pride in our nation, as hopefully we perform as well in London as we did in Beijing in 2008.
The second, perhaps less talked about but in historical terms far more important, event will be the Diamond Jubilee of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II. On February 6th, she will have been Queen for 60 years, an event which will be celebrated with an extra Bank Holiday in June. What is so special about this event is that she will only be the second monarch in British history to have been on the throne for 60 years. The only other monarch also happened to be female, and was of course Queen Victoria who reigned from 1837 until 1901, a total of 63 years. At the moment Queen Elizabeth looks to be in very good health, and so the chances are very high that not only will she reach the 60 year milestone, but that she will overtake Queen Victoria to become Britain’s longest monarch ever.
2012 will therefore be a year of celebrating Britishness, and what better way to do so than by buying a used caravan and instead of going abroad for your holidays, spending some time exploring the great British countryside. There are plenty of used caravans for sale available all over the country at extremely low prices, which are ideal for hitching up to the back of your car and getting out there and see what the country has to offer.
There is nothing more British than a caravan holiday in the British countryside. It gives you the freedom to go where you want, when you want, for as long as you want. It means you can change your plans at the last minute, drive all through the night if you want to, and if you’re tired sleep during the day. It means that your holiday is entirely in your hands. And there is so much to see. From the beauty of Scotland to the incredible scenery in North Wales, and from the idyllic setting of the Lake District to the rugged natural coastline of Cornwall. You don’t have to go far to find a beautiful part of the UK just on your doorstep. And, if you have the time, why not go the whole hog and celebrate 2012 by taking your caravan from one end of the country to the other, to truly appreciate the range of different cultures and places within our own borders. As long as the Mayan prophecy about the world ending at the end of 2012 doesn’t come true then it should be a fantastic year!
