undisputed 1,664 Posted July 24, 2011 Report Share Posted July 24, 2011 (edited) Don't expect to live somewhere scenic and peaceful. When I was a kid 3 of us put a tenner in the kitty each and bought a derelict caravan,the rivets were popping out of the walls,door was almost dropping off etc We took it to London and parked up on grenade street in Limehouse,right opposite the cop-shop and under the DLR if anyone knows the area,we stayed there for 18 months,built a dog run on the side of the caravan(true story)for the three lurchers,one of us being not as honest as the other two wired the caravan up to the street lights for electricity,once we tired of the street so moved a hundred yards away to rich street,didnt have a happorth of bother in a year and a half except once a van-full of coppers came over to look us over after a sort of fight with a drunken guy,I put an irish accent on and they thought we were a tarmacing gang apart from that no problems We even expanded slightly and got a second caravan for guests,Coney Clucky from this forum used to pop down regular to lamp. Thats a great story mate nearest I came to that was a week in Wanlockhead in an old VW caravanette in the middle of winter. I nearly died of hypothermia and had used all the calor gas for the cooker trying to keep warm at night. I was only 16 at the time and I hated every bloody minute I was there, this was way before mobile phones so I had to tough it out for the week till I got picked up again.

There was a tramp in london in the news a little while ago cos he squatted in a big london mansion for the required period of time then claimed the place as his own. It was worth millions! All the posh c**t neighbours were up in arms about it! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
