We are taking our colour changing lights on holiday with us.

Would like to see someone try and complain about them.

We used our Blue solars in Moreton (C&C Club Site) a few weeks ago. 

If anyone says anything they can only be jealous and have nothing else to moan about.

All these threads about being at peace with one's neighbours is making me think about PIR sensors combined with something a bit brighter - just to highlight my guyropes

All I have this year is some I found thrown away at a campsite last summer.

Once I've lived with my new tent for a while I'll know better where to place the lights ...

I don't get this. Is there something wrong with me? I thought camping was about getting away from it all. Living a simpler life and seeing new surroundings.   

So we go to a field, build a den (tent), surround it with 6ft high panel fencing (windbreaks). Drag a load of stuff electrical to stress us out when it goes wrong (add the stress of not being able to get it all back in the car or box or trailer) put up a myriad of pretty lights and stand back and admire.

If you live in a street with loads of street lights and neighbours with PIR lights constantly coming to blinding light etc etc, surely you want to get away from all that?

Nope I still don't get it.    

But then I'm a stuffy old fart.   I dream of sleeping in pitch black and hearing the owls screech and the night creatures snuffling around.

we don't use them .but a young man said to me last week that .. they thought it was a secret sign that the occupants of the caravan/tent were "swingers"  ..i really don't know if he was joking or what ...i just looked at his face and there was no sign of a smirk ..so if you use them younger people may think your in the club so to speak

Never mind the swinging, I was all set to have a headphone disco in my tent, but I can't fit the disco lights in the car.

In my case I'm a bit paranoid about people driving into my tent - so I thought a row of carefully chosen lights marking the boundary would be as much a help as a hindrance to my neighbours and would only be lit while there was activity ...

As a techie, it's my equivalent of whittling .
