all my expensive crap goes in the car with me.

but i have a small cheep radio that i leave playing while im a way. people might just think your sleeping

  As Rex has already said, if you are staying on sites catering just for tents and touring caravans, everyone is in the same boat, so to speak, and therefore are more likely to respect others belongings. 

   It seems to be one of those unspoken rules and etiquette in camping that everyone looks out for each others gear.

  (Just like those other little quirks of camping: like chatting in the washing up area to total strangers about the day's weather and smiling as you pass someone going to the toilet and shower block........could this be an idea for a new thread; What are the unspoken rules or wonderful etiquettes peculiar to camping?)

  Best wishes and wishing for Easter bank holiday to come round again

hi all, we where at blue dolphin park last summer and  my wife was taking to someone who's tent had been robbed. they took all the electrical goods camera's etc. out of their tent. i have read the rest of the forums and everyone is of the same mind set,  lock them away when you go out

I think this just clarifies what Rex has said. Blue Dolphin is a large mixed site. Haven don't tend to be too hot on security and public tend to wander freely. (As we found out when our vehicle was broken into one night!)

If the rules are unspoken how can we discuss them?
