This is a question Tramps

Tramps, burn-outs and the homeless insane all go to making life that little bit more interesting.
Gather around the burning oil-drum and tell us your hobo-tales.

Livin' the dream...
Life, I hope, is good for this man. We can only guess as to what circumstances or decisions led him to that life, but as one who has lived the mobile dream, there are a lot of benefits that come with it.

Fresh air (how clean are these canals?) and being exposed to the wonder that is nature always made me smile inside. I hope these sentiments are shared, if not, then please find them enclosed!

There won't be any photos
I took some on Friday evening and then started thinking.

My house is fairly ramshackle. It's had a lot of work done and it needs a lot more work and I pay over £500 a month for the mortgage. How would I feel if someone took pictures of it - without my permission - for the edification and amusement of others?

Our man leads a peaceful, independent and anonymous life which I celebrated in my initial post.

The replies seem to suggest that others applaud this too, and I think it would be very wrong of me to traduce his interpretation of domesticity by making it a figure of fun.

He will live his life, we will live ours and I am vicariously gratified on his behalf that there is a general appreciation of his choice of lifestyle.

On any twist of fate, one day we might find ourselves stuck for options and Canaltramp has made the best of his.

:(
Truly, I feel raped.
I clicked in anticipation of ogling pictures of floaty slum and now, like an election promise, the dream has vanished.
I want my click back >_<
