     We are a hardy lot in the UK.How is camping so popular?I don't think it's just a question of saving money quiet a few of us actually like it. Of course there
     are alot of never agains but that is not surprising really. There are plenty of camp sites open all year due to demand! I am not to sure I can say the same
     for our neighbours. On the two camp sites we have visited we have been the only tent.Plenty of caravans and campers mostly Dutch and German plenty of room for
     tents which will arrive in the school holidays,but no campers

     We had a new experience yesterday at the station in Pisa.Its was busy boarding the train and being polite Brits we hung back and let everyone on first. Just
     as we started to board more people arrived and a young girl of school age pushed infront of me.I thought to myself ignorant little person but being the polite
     Brit didn't say it.We were happy to stand in the area between carriages and there was room in the corner but as I tried to make my way through my path was
     blocked by another two young girls.I wasn't suspicious just thinking, kids. I did manage to push through to the space and then a young lad asked is this the
     train to ?? and on being told no five of them got off. Jackie joined me in the corner . My man bag was unzipped,as was Jackie's bag. My phone was still
     there in the main compartment, and by a stroke of luck the zip where I have two credit cards and about 100 euros had lost its puller and it was a two handed
     operation to open. Saved by cheap low quality goods ha ha . Jackie's camera was still there but she thought she was a few tissues short. Joking aside this
     could have been serious if we were carrying passports and wallets.  Fagin is alive and well and training them well as for us it was a question of being let
     lightly and I doubt I would be so chirpy if it had ended differently.
