I think that's they've migrated into cities more now rather than living out in the countryside. It's probably a commentary on how peoples skills have changed - able to survive better in a familiar environment with identifiable sourced of food rather than fending in the wild.

 

I hadn't thought about it before I wrote that and I don't mean this to be offensive, but there's an interesting parrallel with urbanisation of foxes. Someone could probably get a thesis out of that.

there's a fair few in the city of London, we have a lot of regular one's in the gardens where i work of a night. Also i live opposite a far size woodland which has at least 4 people living rough in it, been there for a fair few years now as well.

Mind you there's a hell of a lot of guy's over there culling deer, wouldn't like to get caught in between them

There is one old guy i see maybie once or twice a year out in the country just walking the lane ive no idea where he's going or where from but he looks well wild defonotly not a town type tramp more like a hermit travaler type.

My sister lives down in dorset by the coast you see a fair few of these old type tramps at this time of year some look like there 100 years old and been walking forever she said they come into town at sertain times of the year

But now you've grown up you reserve that sort of attention for Hunt Sab's, right?

 

 

 

 

" Tramp Sh*t ". Maybe I should go out, find and photograph some of that? Put it up under " Wildlife " and ask what it is?

There s a couple of fella,s poke around my village, been around for ages, they are harmless, and not always pissed.They always comment on the dogs, and are pleasant, and dont ask for anything. I always speak to them.Basically i feel sorry for the poor buggers, and always think " there but for the grace of God, go I".

Dont see any in the country but plenty in places like newcastle competing with the foreigners for change
