Flashing flag/light poles

I thought Ep was an extended play record 

EP90 was oil one used to keep puting into Land Rover differentials. Extreme Pressure. 

Made me smile Corners. Some of our best ever star watching moments have been on campsites.......but definitely not Club ones, or large ones. I suppose Club has a duty of care to ensure that there is some overnight lighting for those 2-3am calls of nature, so they can be forgiven.

But sitting out in the dark, on a warm clear evening, with no artificial light around is one of those unforgettable things we like to do. Passing satellites, shooting stars, so many pinpricks of light it’s hard to pick out the constellations. It’s become much nicer and easier now that some places are using less intrusive street lighting.

We always have a torch in our tourer, comes from our camping background I suppose. Not a fan of light displays on sites, except at Christmas, but some feel the need for them. We have good blackout curtains and blinds.

Had that pleasure a few years back in my VW Trooper !

Sitting on the van's step, slathered in Jungle Formula I remember, watching the moon rise over the Ben and reflecting in a very still Loch Naver. Feeling that my coffee was cold I thought of brewing another one when I noticed it was 01:30. Decided against it , wiped the gunge off and went to bed before the sun rose

And that's why Altnahara is Brian's favourite Club Site TTDA !!

live and let live,

but why all those night time trips to the toilets? haven't the vast majority of post 1960 outfits got some sort of toilet facility? saves money on torch batteries and keeps door slamming noise to a minimum. That's me done.

We live in a town and we see the night sky.  Despite a bright moon on Sunday I managed to observe Jupiter and a couple of it's moons plus Mars and Saturn obviously better with no lights about but you have to make do with what you've got.

Likewise I've never see anyone want the trees cut down from the roadsides due to the potential strobe effect with the sun which might cause problems with folk with epilepsy

well as you know for me other non club sites do not exist

Yes I can agree with what you are saying, in my younger days I did some wild camping, and I mean real wild camping here, in the Lakes, (Red tarn was the best lovely clear night I remember) and just lying there after dark was absolutely amazing. 

Lovely isn’t it. We found a site in North Norfolk, little CS. No other lights showing, we sat there hours trying to identify constellations. At least until locals turned up lamping for rabbits🙄

I'm not a fan of flag poles, whether decked out with LED lights or not. The fact that I don't shut my blinds until quite late and could find the lights something of a distraction is my problem and I don't expect others to be concerned about it.

I'm sure I do things that irritate the pants of other campers.
