Fair looking forward to getting out in campervan and meeting up with friends old and new once the virus has gone

Whether it's somewhere close or far

I think it's going to be a very messy time aswell especially if the old camper friends have got owt to do with it

Roll on

And your go to place will be? I am missing the Lake District so much. Always enjoyed it, but appreciate it even more now.

With your plans after this lockdown you will need to find a quiet spot

At our first meet there was 30 couples some in tents some in campers/motorhomes and a couple in caravans and what a mad weekend it turned out to be lol

I thought I would be able to do some wild camping, but the guidelines say that even though we can drive as far as we want for how ever long, we have to return home that evening

I wonder how they deal/treat people who live in vans all the time?

I have seen a few video blogs on youtube about it, looks like they are having to keep moving to different spots or find private land to stay on.

I dont see the issue in staying overnight if we adhere to the guidelines. I dont understand the rational in saying we can go where we like for how long, but dont stay overnight

But what i dont understand is, we can drive there...and stay there all day...just not overnight. If its about spreading the virus, why allow us to go there to start with.

Anyway..i dont mean to nag on about it...just frustrated and want to get out there and enjoy the camper

The irony is of course most units are self sufficant our motorhome has everything we need for a weekend away just needs food. Every licensed campsite has a 5 metre rule due to fire safety social distancing would not be a problem.

That is where self control and common sense come into play. A busy campsite is no different from a busy supermarket.
