    I was intrigued so I consulted Mr Google, this is Harry Worth, He was around in the 60's. I'd never seen Him either.

    No worrieslaughing I was intrigued & would've checked it out, I must've missed His shows because they aired until 1970, 1970 I can remembercool

    It only works one way though.  If I get tired of it and follow them back and return the complement, they don't like it either!

    I think the just two lazy to walk around . Put a electric fence around the pitch that might stop the lazy ignorant sods

    We have been to three different sites whilst away for four weeks and have experienced cut through on two sites and the only reason we didn't exoerience it on the third site is because we had a hedge across the back of our pitch. I don't think there is a solution apart from putting hedging around each pitch.

    The way the site st Looe was laid out, it was impossible to not walk next to a pitch short of walking as you'd drive ..... & nobody would have done that. The solution is ..... don't  let worry you.

    This problem is the reason that some people feel it necessary to delineate their territory with windbreakers. We experienced worse than people cutting through on foot some years who at the Dorset Steam Fair. When we were pitching we couldn't understand the people opposite us tying a rope across between caravans. Then when the first 4x4 cut through between us and the caravan next door we realised! It rained heavily over the next couple of days and the ground became a quagmire. Everywhere these nutters could drive, they did just that.

    Respecting people's space is, as far as I'm concerned, the number one rule of caravanning! If they become friends, fine, then you'll be invited in, if not, show some respect and give people their space. We have always taught our kids that a wide berth around a pitch is the order off the day and they always respected it.
