Wild camping is legal

Ah, at least we are agreed that bikers and car drivers can be just as guilty of using our roads to "play", albeit at different speeds.

As for those "rude" horse-riders that you've passed, maybe they were friends of those poor semi-literate policemen that you are so rudely insulting? :):)
 
Some very reasonable points and some more silly negativity on the thread! Thanks to all, anyway.:D

It is patent nonsense to suggest that all horses on the road are only at play: I'm sure the horseguards, cavalry, draymen, timbermen, milkmen, policemen ( sorry, Dave, but I just couldn't leave these "dimwits" out :(), commandos in Afghanistan, racehorses crossing the road ( yes, you may witter on about "cruelty" and "play", but these horses actually earn Great Britain and her RESIDENTS far more in £s IN THIS COUNTRY than any off-shore, tax-dodging ex-speculator BANKERs ever did),
funeral directors, carters of every description, riding schools, etc etc
do NOT consider their work to be mere "play".

In fact, this anti-horse thing seems to be total bollocks! The sort of sh ite that the likes of Monkey, ALF HUCKER, Northener, and Derek, Shtumple, Screevin Flip Flop would come out with in their shlabber.:D

I was going to post up a fine example of a great road race in Cork, but, because I like David, and think he must be Dick Emery re-incarnated,

here's a clip in which his good self and Shtumple show us plebs how life should really be lived:

Obviously, we have a lot to learn and are never going to make the grade. However, should David and Derek ever seize power in this country ( when they return), all I can say is God help us! You ain't got a fkn clue, imo! :)

Oh, btw, here's one featuring all the terrible folk ye'll have to keep in line;

All the best!

Sorry Smaug, Carnage was simply a juvenile attempt at word-play humour!

Taking some of my comments too seriously could be cartastrophic ( from the Greek "katastrephein", meaning "making it up as I go along"!!) :):)
 
Interesting how a bunch of people who on the surface want to be left alone to do what we want have views on how other people should live there lives and want restrict others. I think the average fit horse is probabily faster than my camper :p

Hi Guys

If you read this old news post BBC News - Verges and lay-bys blocked for Appleby Horse Fair you will see that the travellers using Horse Drawn Caravans are permitted to wild Camp on the road side (Signs posted) but those who use motor vehicles have to use designated parking areas.

There are also problems that need to be address of educating some of these travellers about waste disposal, which is to be now addressed. BBC News - Pledge to tackle Appleby Horse Fair disruption

A few service points along our road network would go a long way in eliminating antisocial disposal, even by some on these forums, who allow their waste to foul the carriageway.

Thank you Iveco 4x4 for your reply, and,
as ever, a big thank you to Mr Thompson for giving us the actual legal position.

It is noted that the plans of the puritans to introduce even more bureaucratic restrictions by way of further legal tampering with by-laws etc
would cost a fortune, most of which would have to be borne by those who actually live and work in this country.
Of course, more bureaucracy would put more money into the pockets of the "legal eagles" ( parasites) who are their friends.

Sir David:

I was enquiring about the "Chopin" clip. Didn't you see yourself in it? There again perhaps your imagination is not quite as vivid as that of our other Walter Mitty character, young Derek.

Young Derek:

Isn't it time for your tablet, laddie?
Apoplexy isn't a healthy thing.
Btw, is it still half term or something? Shouldn't you be thinking about getting your homework ready, instead of scouring the internet to find free places on fora where you can dump your "grey and black" puritan's maiden's water?

Just a few pennies a week for membership here and all you can scream about is fkn taxation.

All the very best to you and Dave!

If you are not FlipFlap, then you just joined him on my ignore list. If you have nothing constructive to say then please say nothing.

It's people like you that cause the problems we have in our society.
 
Not that your reference to policeman being semi literate would be offensive to serving police officers on the forum David.

Your choice WVW, but I am sure most people can see through it, perhaps reporting results in a new account and more of the same diatribe

No fireworks from me, I am surprisingly in control of my emotions at the moment, makes a pleasant change :lol-053:
 
Wintonion don't you get fed up with regurgitating the same old drivel over and over again? you say you like a debate!!! but your augments about different topics end up being identical. You have nothing fresh or new to any of your views.

I look forward to and anticipate your cyclic reply of little man in wales with no education, or something as predictable.
 
Surely, part of comprehension of the English language is reading too ? And I never mentioned the word Insult.

Btw it seems your book is perhaps different to the rest of us, perhaps considering the language you use in a post and the limited communication afforded by a forum may result in a reader putting inflection where it wasnt intended........perhaps with your grasp, something you should consider.

I just hope when you are back in the Uk, and you have cause to call the Police to assist you remember to request one that attends your plight that isnt "dim". Worse still French plod should something happen dont treat you has a semi literate French speaking dimwit.

We were looking for a wild campsite that way last year at this time, was amazed by the quantity of wild camping going on. Eventually we stayed in the layby below Wild Boar Fell just over the Settle-to-Carlisle bridge and the next morning saw a stream of horses and carts heading for Appleby down that road. I spoke to one guy leading a horse and toting an air-rifle, which he told me he used to shoot pheasants and rabbits as he went along (in other people's fields, no doubt). The law that says it is illegal to use an airgun with 50ft of a public road obviously doesn't apply to travellers!

Maybe we should send such offenders to "take the black" and man the wall in the far north? Winter is coming!:king:
 
David, assumed ?

Come on you know, Assume makes An ass (of ) U (and ) me.

Seems all of us never cease learning.

BTW Why were the Gendarmes speaking English?. reserve that for home.

You are right no nit picking now
