Sunday we were camped on the common land south of Nateby, beautiful sunny day, lots of kids paddling in the nearby river, sheep grazing around the half dozen or so MH'S and cars. Quite simply, a stunning location with a happy atmosphere with kids playing and everyone generally having a great time.
And then they came.
Flat bed truck and two transits, off come the quad bikes, scramblers and mopeds. Adults and kids screaming around on the fecking things, kids smashing bottles in the river and swearing and shouting at each other.
We and a few others decided to leave.
We returned mid evening glad to see them gone but what a frigging mess they left, bottles, cans, sweet wrappers, crisp bags you name it. Izzy and I spent an hour clearing the place after them, another camper was collecting broken glass in the river.
On a slightly more comic note, we were eating breakfast outside surrounded by sheep and fell ponies, one pony decided to scratch it's backside on the table, over goes the table along with our breakfasts! Our dog thought she had ddied and gone to heaven - a full English and toast gobbled in no time.
