bad night in layby
Hi all
had a really uncomfortable night in my chosen layby right from the start cars with solo male occupants kept parking getting as close as possible to the front ,back and sides of the van even at times blocking the layby.
Now we are what we are agree ? I have no problem with that but I do have a real problem with the way some seem to think it's okay to pester others going about there own business lucky enough for me I'm not overly scared of this type of situation.
But some of these guys are big lads that must work out seven days a week in the gym so a bit of sensibility is needed to handle any given situation that my arise.
What would you do f and gef at them, pull a knife out, or point your air rifle at them or be tactful and polite or just move on and find another spot.
Well I chose this life style of wildcamping and I will have to share the laybys with these short of people just as I must with the HGV drivers I think the best way to defuse any situation that may arise would be to be polite and tactful when giving a response to an a propision that may cause you offence.
That's not to say the way I have said that I would deal with it would be my chosen method! seriously a few years ago I would of jumped in fists flying hell for leather and not been to worried about the outcome.
At the end of the day if your polite it would more than likely be in your favour and rejuse the chance of your vehicle or in my case my home from any revenge attack.
I did take note of all the car registration numbers and have two video cameras running .

on the move down south
1. Hi all having spent the end of may and the start of June on and around rutland water mostly with the wildcamping.co.uk annual meeting.
At the Lyndon top campsite which is a fantastic venue for a meet we had nothing but sunshine and nice sunsets and with over one hundred vans from the wild camping community we also had nothing but fun.
I did however get bogged down and was in need of a tow out which i was very glad of as the weather started to change and the rally field was vevy fast becoming sodden.
While there i visited the buitiful Town of Stamford, Oakham , along with Manton village and the buitiful upper Hambleton.
I have now started to make my move southwards stopping at Corby which was a waste of time really then moving on to market Harborough onto the A6 for Kettering finely stopping in a layby for the night on the A43 a mile short of North Hampton .
Plan for tomorrow is to travel the A43 Stop at Towcester then maybe into Bicester onto the A4095 to Witney then onwards to Cirencester all this might and no doubt change once I get moving.
