Caravan advice

[BBD]

Does anyone have any top tips for life in the caravan of freedom?

How often to empty the 'grey water'?
How long to stay on a good pitch before moving on?
Internet access in an Avondale 5 berth?
Overthrowing the slave cow system on a tight budget?

Never eat free range beef. It's a trick.

The best tip I've got is sell the caravan and use the proceeds to stay in a hotel.

Not sure about the Caravan of Freedom, but if a mere fraction of the population were to take the advice of the Housemartins you might find that a 5-berth is too small to serve as the Caravan of Love.

Subtracting the 1 in 2000 live-births, which is the lower-bound estimate of the number of inter-sex individuals who are genetically neither woman nor man, I think that you will need to go for the Avondale 7.511 Billion-berth with standing room.

I imagine this will be extraordinarily difficult to manoeuvre round the Lake District and give you serious grey-water issues if remaining on any given camp-site for more than a week.

Surely buying a caravan from a dealer and then setting up on a campsite misses the point? Far better to buy an old second hand one from some bloke in the pub and set up in a layby somewhere. With a clever extension set for your grey waste pipes, you could probably send it all straight down a drain.

Caravans area for corporate running dogs. Only a nest made out of cardboard boxes and tarps can really set you free. Ideally, it should be located in the bushes on a central reservation of a busy dual carriageway like yon bloke who lived like that on the Wolverhampton ring road for years.

Seems like we even need the feckin' Poles to show us how to do opting out from a live of contended Cow-dom properly.

[Lord Lucan]

Stop at the next pikey site you see and go and ask the experts.

are they members of the caravan club?

If you decide to follow LL's advice, could you please advertise it on here first. I'd quite like to watch this. The tinkers around here are a bit sensitive about being described as freeloaders who operate outside the system, and are quite insistent that the council provide them with pitches with all mod cons, including electricity, water, sewerage and rubbish collection. They're also not shy about sending their kids to school or using the NHS.

Celebrity Love Caravan?

11 former non-celebrities and Linda Lusardi spend 5 weeks in a 1961 Eriba Puck just off the Dudley Southern By-Pass while Paddy Kielty tries to keep the bemused audience interested by showing them pictures of what Linda's tits used to look like.
