himself hates Austria ( or rather Austrians ) in general. They fine you for farting appareantly. this morning was a classic. we have been a total of 4 busses on this carpark. 2 left yesterday which left us and our original neighbour since last wednesday. This morning a little fourgonette arrived and decided it wanted to park in between the 2 of us ! FFS ? Himself was out the door demanding to know WTF ? " we wanted to hide" was the answer. total fruitloops.
last races today and onto Germany tonight

That really winds me up...acres of room and then some twat wants to park right next to you...it's not like we don't have' UK' clearly displayed on our number plates. Safe onward journey...no farting until you are out of Austria!

It winds me up an all but what you have to do is put them off parking near to you in the first place. Be yobbos. You dont even have to actually be a yobbo. Just leave a guitar on a chair outside the van, a few cans of super strength lager strewn around the place, packet of fags, maybe a rabid dog on a bit of rope tied to the bumper (Doesnt even have to be a real one) and you will have the Aire, wild spot to yourself. I loved Austria though, especially around the Lakes area east of Salzburg.

I tried that at Tarifa,I even had an amplifier next to the guitar but the Spanish twat who arrived took no notice and parked so close I would have been hard pressed to put out an awning. He then shunted backwards and forwards and kept opening the window in his van and I realised he was using my van as a fecking windbreak. The field was bloody mahoosive with tons of space. I made the point of moving away from the knob and parking further away and as the wind was really getting up kept my eyes peeled for a space next to the treeline. I noticed the twat next door looking for a space as well...the challenge was on.
Having been there a few days I knew which vans came and went and when I saw the people returning to their van I shot over there right sharpish. As the van moved out I took the spot and looked over at the twat who was still sitting in his drivers seat. After ten minutes he got out of his van and walked over and knocked on the door. Cheeky twat then asked me to move over so that he could park in next to me...had to tell him to feck off! Bit disappointed in the morning not to find his van on its side.

We did loads of wilding in Austria or do you mean parking is ok but not putting out chairs, fags, booze and the gazebo?

Quite sure. If you are hidden away then you may be alright. But its officially forbidden. Its usually campsite owners who spot camping cars then call police or mountain rescue ( i kid you not)....who then will turn up and move you on. Or fine you. As theyblike to do. We met a few people who had been told to move on...all reported bu the local campsite. Arselochs.

When we were in Spain (Cabo de Gata) we parked on the beach along with about fifty other vans. We being British made sure that we didn't 'camp' despite the fact that the guy next to us had a rattan settee, chairs and table placed upon a large square of carpet. These were housed under his awning that had been boxed in with windbreaks and copious Christmas lights. He had an outside BBQ and a 12v fridge for his beer and a large TV. He wasn't the only one it looked very much like a shanty town on the beach. Guess who gets a fecking knock on the door from the Spanish rozzers? They walked past half a dozen Spanish vans to tell us that we couldn't park there.
