For the past 3 months we've been staying out on a farm in WA. Water is in short supply in the area and the bore water is a light chocolate colour so you don't drink it or wash your clothes in it.
We have an arrangement with the caretaker of the nearest towns CP to go in every 2-3 days and collect scheme water (about 80 litres which we use for drinking and washing our dishes etc in) and wash our clothes (which is the usual pay machine and often used by some of the locals in town).
Today we went in and did our usual thing. There was a caravan pulled in beside the sets of taps that we use to get our water. We were happily filling up the water containers in the back of our ute when the female occupant of the van comes steaming around shouting at us and wanting to know why we turned their 240v power off on the day we were last there. She ranted and raved and being as controlled as we could be with this feral, told her we have been doing this for 3 months now, other RVs have been parked in the same place and never had a problem and why the hell would we want to turn their power off. Then the male waddles around and starts making the same accusations and says hes going to stick a "fuken video camera up to catch us turning off his power" !!
Their tow ute was new but the 'van was about 10 years old, so not sure how long they have vanned for. But I bet they make a lot of friends on their travels with an attitude like this !!! I would not go accusing people of this sort of stuff - I could well have up and smacked both her and him - they didn't know me from soap and I could have been a worse feral then obviously both of them are !!!
Thankfully we are leaving the area this Sunday and hopefully away from cretins like these two.

Sometimes its better to walk away shaking the head wondering what was that all about .
Keep smiling Bruce its not worth it .
My motto is treat others as you want others to treat you.
These people will always encounter problems, caravanning for them must be tough .

Their Their now Bruce,
Calm down son before you give yourself a heart attack. Ask Bev to give you your blood pressure tablets now, and make you a nice cup of red or three.
Go back to the farm and talk to the animals, As the animals you both encounted are feral as you say.
Be happy **** happens. Today is not your day, Xmas next week. You never know what Santa might bring you.
Stay Well,
Jim & Lambie

I would never recommend you driving past their new vehicle in the middle of the night with a water pistol full of Brake Fluid, that would not be nice.

Something just crossed my naughty mind, what if the pair of Ferals were Grey Nomads? The mind boggles.
I mean, registered in this Grey Nomad site.

haha Simmo - at least if they are on this site, they don't have your address to drive past your vehicle LOL
Nah - I didn't let them raise my blood pressure - Bev was the one that got all wound up and felt like hitting them both - and boy, I haven't heard certain words come out of her mouth before after we drove off. In fact, I ignored them and didn't say a thing as I was busy filling the water tanks. The only good thing that came out of it, was presumably all the food in their fridge freezer melted (the van was too old to have a 3 way fridge) and that's probably why they were like they were.
Still didn't excuse their wild accusations and stupid comments.....but it takes all sorts I guess - including ferals like these two

No Jim, I am just your average dreamer, and if I touch a nerve sometimes, I've had a good day.
As I said, "I would never recommend".

I have not seen a 2 way absorption fridge that was built in the last 25 years (at least not in sizes under 200 litres.)
