Yeah,he had a YT video titled "Can we park our Hymer here?" or something very close to that. There was a picture of Gold Hill in Shaftesbury(the one in the old Hovis advert),with his van photoshopped in. The video had sod all to do with parking the van there,and when I commented to that effect and that the photo was portraying us all in a bad light, he changed the title to something else. I don't waste my time with vanlifers on YT anymore,more fun doing it yourself.

25k views. I doubt he'll get anything but you and the others are right. YouTube is awash with bollox like this and these cringey gleeful "vanlife" vids. They make me puke. 🤣

It was nice to watch back in the day when you were following someone documenting a route or visiting somewhere interesting but now their all trying to make living out of it.
 
You don’t need to go online for poor advice.
I am currently questioning someone who wrote an article on Mull and informed the readers of MMM that wild camping was banned on Mull. I have been WC on Mull for forty years most of them in a tent with no problems. I had my second reply to Mr Baxter published in last months copy. And this in a magazine sold to members of our community. This guy clearly has issues with responsible WC.
 
I watched one of his vids as there was something in it that interested me, watch a few minutes of a second one and decided not to bother watching anymore, and that includes the link on this thread.
 
The campsite next to the cruise line terminal in Venice was €69 per night for 3 adults and a dog. To be fair it was front line next to the water. Every facility including a pool .restaurant and bar plus a shop.. it was their most costly pitch with other a lot cheaper.
We stopped the uk club membership a few years back.

Bristol campsite is a small campsite situated next the docks area were the Brunel museum is. The C&MC are only there on a short lease basis as the site is due to be developed for housing. We were there four years ago and it was much cheaper than this. From memory I think it was about £35 a night. I am genuinely shocked at these ridiculous prices, even more shocked that anyone is paying them.
 
I have been a member of CAMC Club for about 14 years and in that time have spent about 4 nights on their sites and 3 nights on CL’s.

However we have saved £1,000’s on a new car (genuine saving) and £100’s on ferries such as Dover - Calais for under £90 later this week, and Cairnryan - Belfast for £405 in September

How much has the membership cost you in all that time?

I would estimate about £700 over the 14 years. This years renewal is due on 1st August for £63 but I saved more that that on 3 ferry bookings already.

We also got a genuine discount of about £6000 on a brand new car a few years ago so we have covered the subscriptions many times over.
