I know this may sound daft, but this is a genuine question, lol.
The reason I ask is that if someone for arguements sake falls asleep on a park bench, noone is going to try and get the police involved or otherwise remove you. With this in mind, if someone then gets inside a bivvy and gets some shut eye on a long hike without pitching up a tent or starting a fire, does this count as camping, or would people have more or less the same attitude towards you as they do that drunkard who fell asleep on the park bench?
I know I may not have explained this question as well as I could have, but hopefully I've got the gist of what I mean across.
