I'd love to go wilderness camping like you can in Canada and the US. Trouble is there is very little wilderness in the UK, and that's practically all up in Scotland, where you get bitten raw by the midges. Every sq m of land in England is owned by and known by someone. We don't get so many crystal clear mountain streams to wash and water from.

However, I do put up a tent and live in that - not a caravan. And if you think we're bad, you aughta see the Dutch they've got it down to an exact science, with specialised vehicles and trailers and hi tech eqpt.

Anyways, talk about convenience "camping" - tell me which continent the Winabego comes from, with its swivel lounge seat for the driver, bedrooms, bathrooms, TVs, HiFi, carpets, etc. You rarely see them (or smaller less ostentatious variants) over here or at camp sites (and then it;s the French, Dutch and Germans that have them)
- Whoever said that women are the weaker sex never tried to wrest the bedclothes off one in the middle of the night
- Worry is the interest you pay, in advance, for a loan that you may never need to take out.
