Hey star I would be careful with that smiley as the word "camp" certainly has a different connotation in Britain :0)

[DollyCali]

okay.. call me uninformed.. what does "camp" mean in England?

Heck I don't even know all the slang, "in words/phrases" in th e USA anymore

[STARWISE]

Oh .. well here, camp is a place where kids go for a weekend, week, to the whole summer to gain independence, to work together, live in tents, cabins or dorms, learn new sports and skills, recreate in the water, on trails, etc., have a ball, and are supervised in their various pursuits by camp counselors like ilovew (while their parents wonder what they're doing).

There's all kinds of camps, (I would think they have them in the UK as well) for different interests, from music to religion to writing, to all the various sports, etc. It's an American summertime tradition.
