I’ll wake up in the morning wearing a fake army camouflage uniform, those creepy tinted spectacles and some hi-viz.
Camo AND Hyviz?
I recently bought a Defender that has been pretty well kitted out (snorkel, sump guard, diff guards, side bars, various bits of checker plate) and my wife suggested I could now assist the local healthcare workers get to work in bad weather. Should I go out and buy some hi viz ppe and flashing lights now, or hide it in the garage at the first sign of snow and deny all knowledge ?

Camo AND Hyviz?You’ve got to be ready to kill or cure at a moments notice. Only an amateur turns up half dressed.

Personally, I think the only thing that separates our society from that of America is that we have free mental healthcare and military firearms are not legal.
Remove those two brakes and half the waddlers in the UK would be wearing stetsons and handguns in a flash.
I’ve shot all my life and most disciplines and what I know for sure is that a particular discipline becomes less about country persuits and more about military orientated completion the number of ‘live with mother’ weirdos goes through the roof. The absolute pinnacle of this was pistol shooting and disciplines such as falling plate. Nutters. The competitions were total waltfests. Conversely, things such as long range rifle generally attracted normal, boring chaps who liked to discuss the effects of different foliage on the long range trajectory of a bullet as opposed to playing soggy biscuit around a .45 reloading machine and ranting about the internal damage they could do to water melons.
I used to love a steel plate shoot, and bowling pins as well. Cheeky bit of Practical Pistol on a saturday morning, however i was only 14 at the time and it was much more fun getting through about a 1000 rounds a week than playing footy in the park.Remove those two brakes and half the waddlers in the UK would be wearing stetsons and handguns in a flash.

Camouflaged campers? It's a bit odd.
It starts with a ‘go bag’ that is hidden upstairs but then gets pride of place in the front porch and then grows into a ‘bug out vehicle’ and then we get the defence/weapon fetish appearing and signs of spending a lot of time watching right wing propaganda videos and conspiracy theories that justify the need for a go bag, bug out vehicle, faraday wBug out vehicles, in the UK.

That is a baffling selection of meaningless jibberrish. It was either penned by a high level, Government official or a subnormal.
On a vaguely separate note, I followed a grey estate car out of Chipping Norton a couple of days ago that had the back end totally covered in battenberg and some writing ting about poodles!!!!!
