Hi. Thanks for your response I'll have a look. I tried to delete this thread without success. I will try again

The lacking in emotional intelligence!!! The phrase... Shut The Front Door!! Why. Why not just say it

I have phrased this question in another way. I would prefer no comments rather than people off loading their negative, frustrated emotions on to this thread, it helps no one but themselves. The question is out of interest because I am in the process of researching the possibility of living in a motor home full time for a few years to save. Just wondering if anyone in this forum has done such a thing and within the law whether it is possible to do. I know travelers do it but I think they have special rights. Thanks in advance

By the way spoiled I am definitely not. Open to understanding I am which, maybe is a quality you should start developing or of course, keep your negative self to yourself Elphinstone's Army Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- > Is this a philosophical question to take us away > from our real lives, as you are answering your own > questions, which seem obvious in today's world. > If you have the means to purchase a boat or motor > home and a means of earning money and the luxury > of choice then you cannot possibly know the > meaning of homelessness or are likely to.

Ok Ok. I was hoping for some intelligent thoughts on the subject of changing a life style in the UK and how possible that is and is not. Do you know how lacking in awareness you sound? Clearly you are not philosophical and have spent too long up your own behind, stuck in your own linear life to take in something someone else might write without viewing it in a negative way and so missing the point!

I'm not talking about building a house on Green Belt and I know there are worse events going on in the world but just how free are we even in the West? Recently I started to Google for information about living on a Narrow boat or living in a motor home as a way to save money for a future deposit by not having to drop my hard earned money into the bottomless hole of rent. While it is possible to spend time in a motor home or a Narrow boat you can not really have a different life style from the norm because you have to have a normal residential address. Unless you have a residential address everything will collapse. You can not insure a car, you can not register with a doctor etc etc. Having read this disappointing news I then suddenly really understood the meaning of homelessness and why once homeless how the system is the barrier to a person sorting themselves out. But not only that, there are few choices unless you have a lot of money to change a life style you are not happy with in this country. In this day and age is that acceptable?

I hold my breath in anticipation... Affordable???
