All things aside, CamperVanMan's a little too cocksure for me.


I think he's lying. I don't know about what.


He has the arrogance of a smug schoolboy who's stolen some Kola Kubes and knows you can't 'get' him because he's stuffed them down his trousers and will cry 'paedophile' if you challenge him.


It wasn't 'my sister birthday' it was 'my little sister's birthday'. It's manipulative. He's trying to present himself as an angel. He's a bullshitter.


Since he tried to manipulate you with the 'little' the rest of what he says is worthless. He's demonstrated a willingness and capacity to deceive.

>:D< You tell 'em quids!


Also, has anybody who has become chums with TCVM asked him why he doesn't park nearer to/on the premises of his vehicle renting site in London Bridge?! It's a good half an hour/hour drive in rush hour and strikes me as illogical... Especially if he's got to do it every day?!

What an unusual analogy.


Are you speaking from experience?!

AND I notice he hasn't taken me up on the offer. I guess that tells me all I need to know about my neck of the woods. Can't even tempt a(potentially too smug) down on his luck van man. With or without a little sister.

This thread has amazed me firstly Ruby Shoes if I totally agree with where you are coming from but have you read 'The Lady In The Van' by Alan Bennett.


As a child I remember passing this amazing house in Camden (the posh part - Gloucester Terrace) and couldn't work out why a dirty old van was parked in the drive with a scary old lady inside. Years later when 'The Lady In The Van' was in the West End I pieced everything together. Mum confirmed it was Alan Bennett's house.

Not at all - I've never met you so how on earth would I know that! I meant that his attitude to a person living in a van outside his house is not the same as yours has been on this thread. But I don't want to spoil the play by saying much more. I hope you do love it though. I saw it performed with Maggie Smith, it was just genius.
I am now totally intrigued, will let you know how I find it. And FYI, Legalbeagle, I didn't think I'd have to end up saying this, but my initial post stating my disgruntlement over TCVM, well, maybe I was 'over-amplifying' my opinion somewhat. I am not all that bad, actually quite easy-going & open-minded about most things. I'll let you know how the read goes, I'm really looking forward to it now!!!

Well good for you for saying so. Enjoy the play and if it ever gets revived, DEF go and see it!

    • I didn't say wedge it "slightly" open. I meant to wedge it fully open. 
    • I have a rescue Spanish greyhound (galgo) from the charity mentioned above. You can contact Greyhounds in Need or one of the more local Kent greyhound rescue charities. They are fantastic family dogs. They do love walkies 2 or 3 times a day but they actually don't need to be walked too far and then they will happily loaf around on the sofa being very chill. They are brilliant with kids but not recommended if you own a cat as they have a strong prey drive. They also should be kept on the lead in local parks. They prefer to be around other sight-hounds (well my one does) and there are loads of local sighthound owners in Peckham, Crystal Palace etc and a very lively WhatsApp group that is brilliant if you need dog sitting as you can usually find someone to do that for free in return for you looking after the dog at a later date etc.
    • @Jenijenjen I assure you we are always polite and friendly too! Which is why the behaviour we have been receiving is so frustrating. The kids always leave her with a “Thank you have a lovely day”  Our concern is leaving the gate slightly wedged doesn’t stop the action of slamming it open and closed…still leading to damage  
    • If you're talking about who I think you are, I find them more exuberant than rude and usually smiling and polite. But then, I'm usually smiling and polite to them. Can you not wedge open your gate when you're expecting them?
