Camping goes back to trendy in the UK.With students and parents tightening their belts in the face of tne global economic crisis,the overseas holiday tourism around the world is suffering a lot.For many young Brits,during uncertain times,cheap,traditional and homemade altenatives are the choice.

A lot of these people are developing a particular taste for camping holidays.The Camping and Caravanning.Club is reporting a 40 percent increase in booking this year,as well as an increase in new membership applications.

Campsites in the UK generally fall into two categories:holiday parks and wild camping.

The holiday parks are usually large,and accept earavans(旅居车)and tents and have many facilities,from swimming pools to laundry services to bars and shops.For example,young people can find much fun in the Wild Boar Inn campsite in Cheshire.northwest England.There’s live music every Saturday,with 60s,70s and 80s-inspired acts for an evening of laughs.These places are good fbr young Britons to get social.And it’s cheap,only around 5 pounds for entry and people can use all the facilities.

For others,the beauty of camping is in enjoying nature and tranquility(宁静),so a wilder camping experience is also attractive. These people choose anywhere remote,with no light or noise po11ution.The campers often choose relatively small campsites.For example,the Highlands of Scotland.and Danmoor in southern England.

When I was a boy, I belonged to the Boy Scouts(童子军),so I used to go camping every summer, and once something happened which I have never been able to explain.

We were camping in a place above a river. After arriving, we all rushed down to the river and had a swim. Standing by the river, we noticed that it was surrounded by cliffs (悬崖).If someone wanted to reach the river at this point, he had to walk past our camp.

Several days later, the scoutmaster had to be away for a day. That afternoon, we had supper early. We were sitting round the fire, eating and talking, when a man walked past and went down towards the river. We all felt that this man looked very strange, but, because each of us was afraid of looking very stupid, no one said anything.

We ate rather slowly, taking as long as possible. After finishing, we collected our plates together so that we could take them to the river where we always washed them.  But no one moved towards the river, we stood looking at each other ashamed. Then all shouting at once, we began talking about the man who had walked past us. We agreed how strange he looked and we wondered what he could be doing by the river. We knew that he could only return by passing through our camp.

An hour passed. Then one of the boys suggested we should creep(悄悄移动)down by the river so that we could see what the man was doing. Moving very slowly and keeping in the shadow, we crept down towards the bank. One boy climbed a tree so that he could see everything clearly. He called to us that there was no one there, so we ran down to the bank, looking everywhere carefully. We could not understand where the man had gone.

When it got dark, we went back to our camp feeling bewildered. We told the scoutmaster what had happened in the evening. Smiling, he doubted that we had seen the man, but finally suggested we go and look again. We did, but there was no one there.

Many years have passed, but I still remember it as if it were yesterday. What did we see? I do not know.
