I wonder if anyone in Scotland used the same arguments, a "burglar's charter", when our laws were going through. Interesting ..."comments from the DETR suggest that in many areas camping is subject to local bye-laws and indeed that will still be the case..." - I wonder if any have bye-laws that permit wild camping, say those who have national trails in their boundaries. Or would they be more open to a sensible argument than the people who have the whole of the UK to run?

And I've been sneaky about scanning the piece up and posting it without Cameron's permission... just felt it was an important reminder that we've been here before. Any transcription/repro should please credit Cameron McNeish as author and TGO as publisher. No objection at all.

It says a lot. I've taken the liberty of transcribing the scan. I hope neither yourself nor Cameron objects. I'll remove it if you do. Thanks for the history lesson, John. It says a lot.
