gemmaze Posted July 12, 2020 Report Share Posted July 12, 2020 (edited) Learn how to tell people to f off darling when they come around looking through windows and also learn how to box and puch your weight in case plan A dont go down well. If they are living nearby go and put your face up against their windows and see how they like it, living a travelling lifstyle requires a no nonsense attitude for at least fifty peercent of the time unfortunately. Naturally some people will not like this approach and thats fine they are welcome to enjoy plan A or B or simply walk on if they are not able to be respectful of other peoples property.

I could hardly believe this is dragging on, so many hurtful and negative comments. I think it is outrageous, and really little to do with boating , a lot to do with ranting by some very unpleasant people. Well frankly you have added nothing of any value yourself either! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
