We have "campers", "campers" and "travelling community".
Campers #1 = "normal" folk who have a caravan that they use at holiday time. This type of "camper" has the habit of using the device very haphazardly. Creating traffic mayhem in their wake. Please see TopGear (Jeremy and co.)
Camper #2 = "normal" folk who bat for the other side. And most likely spend a lot of time in a "proper" tent...
Travelling community = 2 origins:
A. Irish Travellers (Irish: an lucht siúil, meaning 'the walking people'), are a traditionally itinerant ethnic group whose members maintain a set of traditions. Although predominantly English-speaking, many also speak Shelta. They mostly live in Ireland as well as in large communities in the United Kingdom.
B. Indo-Aryan ethnic group, traditionally itinerant, living mostly in Europe and the Americas and originating from the northern Indian subcontinent, from the Rajasthan, Haryana, and Punjab regions of modern-day India.
The travelling communities tend to move about the country, pitching up where ever they find an empty space. And with this 'pitching up' usually comes other misdemeanours that require support from our local authorities and the local Bobby...
RVs are less common in the UK, therefore unsure if they need to carry any such health warnings...
