Lots of the travelling community heading to Camberley over the next few weeks.
I am told there are 40 Caravans at M&S Car Park currently.
Could get interesting.

Spotted them in M&S last night. M&S usually find a way to move them on sharpish, but I suspect they'll have their work cut out for them if this is the advance party for July.

There was a group on Frimley Green, they were there 1 or 2 nights until they'd had enough. The residents set up some sort of "Ring of steel" around the green according to the press.

I expect the "cancel all leave" cry to be issued to the Boys in Blue any day now

Same rules as for anyone, hopefully. If you misbehave and leave a disgusting and dangerous mess like the travelers did in Heatherside last year - then they should be sent on a one way trip to the sun, otherwise live and let live. I wouldn't live in a caravan and I suspect they wouldn't be all that keen on a house....hippy

Yesterday mornning they had gone. Replaced by their waste. Why use a bin, when you can just move on.

They had some on R4 a few weeks ago bleating about how everyone is racist & how unfair it was & how important it was to preserve their unique way of life.

Didn't seem to understand that stting on the grass is not really an aspiration for most.

They were over at Cookham last week.

Confirmed this morning there were about 40 vans/trucks parked in M&S Camberley.
The rest of the car park was very empty, which for a Saturday morning says it all really.
I didn’t see any sign of them in the store, but I suspect they’ve already done their “shopping” as they’ve been there a couple of days.

Perhaps they've just released a new clothing line?

Last season's 'Mrs M&S':



New 'Miss Gypsy' range:

Cue heavy duty height barriers being put up at the entrance to car parks all over the area...

So, inconveniences and incoming s aside, does anyone else think that the show itself will just be the most hysterically disturbing caterwauling that Camberley theatre has ever held and will descend into a level of carnage not seen since PJ & Duncan played there in the 90s. Whoever took that booking must be working their bloody notice if they haven't left already.

I understand that they turned up, paid in cash and it was only after they had left that it became clear what had been booked.

As that old surrey proverb says "Anyone round here who takes a large cash booking for a venue without checking what will be happening on the night probably deserves the seats to be ripped out when the wrong overly made up umpa-lumpa wins and the audience start to demonstrate their displeasure."
