No, it is because they were wild camping that they were disturbed by yobs and had to move the van and according to the courts, why this happened.

Crime does not always seem to occur away from official sites.

AdgeRas that is very sloppy research to support your argument.

Aires are not the same as 'Camp sites'.
and
A bombers 'camp' in the Lake District' is not described as an official site - in fact this example probably supports Ralphs point about the danger of wildcamps!

Well done for finding another 'domestic' murder in a campsite in the USA.

You score 3/10 for research.

Fair comment The Wallace, but Aires and Stellplatz are used very heavily by a huge number of funsters, as their many many photographs on here show.

What is the definition of an 'official site'? Baysbrown Farm, Ambleside, Cumbria | Information, Reviews and Offers | Pitchup.com

It may not be a CC or C&CC club site, but it is likewise not wild camping. They were albeit in a field, but it was part of the camp site.

What does it matter, campsite, aires, wilding.

Dreams can be a very powerful thing and whilst in a dream the dreamer sees it as real life, he/she has no concious knowledge of what they are doing and its only when they are awake that the ramifications of what they have done are realised.

There can be and I'm certain there are events that take place whilst a person is awake that will trigger a dream.

Many years ago we were all sleeping in an army barracks. In the night one guy got up and attacked one of the other lads who was asleep in bed. He nearly killed him and it was only other people waking up that stopped him.

When he was stopped he calmly walked back to his bed and continued his sleep. It was only when we woke him up that he realised what he had done. He honestly had know idea

This could also be a way of getting out of all those debts that I can't pay.

I wasn't in my right mind when I signed the agreement, sir!"

Default Must buy the wife a tent

Must buy the wife a tent ????

A young man who lived in a tent
Had a t**l so long it was bent.
So long was his t**l
It was kept on a spool
And instead of coming, he went!

Would you really buy yor wife a tent...????
