'So lets not get like tin tenters and start with tent snobbery' ... Quote

one Coleman Waterfall .. one Sunncamp trailer tent , one Outwell Minnie , one Outwell Bear lake and now a ........ OMG .. are you ready?
20 year old caravan.

Snobbery is in the eye of the beholder IMO..

Well we used to own this, and used to enjoy standing on the decked veranda looking down on you bums.

Now when I talk to my fellow campers about my static days they all seem to pack up and go home, leaving me a whole field to ourselves.

Camping is camping.. if you have to segregate and judge people for the way they camp you really are not a true camper.
Everyone on here I think would help out if someone on site was having problems no matter what they were camping in.
The noise when it rains , be it a tent , folding camper/trailer tent or a caravan is still fantastic and I have been lucky enough to experience all of these.

We where at Coopers in Edale last night and the only issues we had where the inconsiderate, poorly supervised, DofE loud mouthed prats from St Albans school Hertford.
The weather was the least of our problems.
