Be careful out there, there are things that go bump in the night and folks are never seen again!

Dude, are you serious or joking? And is it really (I mean, legally) illegal to camp there? A couple of my friends are planning to go camping there.

Its essentially unlawful to camp in the FOD, a lot of Rangers there who will move you on.

There are wild Boar and Deer there however you can't chase them.

Your most logical option is to join a bushcraft discussion and get along to camps and meet individuals. Many have authorization to chase and trap any semblance of Rabbit and to search on private land and you'll enhance your range of abilities.

You're not going to get caught camping. And even if you did, they'd just ask you to leave. I believe the rule is different in Scotland however, you're allowed to camp anywhere as long as it's 100 meters or more away from a road, so that might be worth looking into if you don't want the risk.

Man, would you say you are not kidding or kidding? Also, is it truly (I mean, legitimately) unlawful to camp there? Two or three my companions are intending to go setting up camp there.

depends what your doing, one person or a couple in a tent shouldnt get any hassle, especially if you dont make any mess and take your trash home afterwards.

Yes you are right, I highly agreed with you that one who lives alone and have to do all the things alone so he has no time for other extra things.

its the ones who trash the place that gives everyone else a bad name.

not what I said, a camping trip is not the same as living alone.
