Cornwall Caravan park

I stayed on a caravan park on the south coast of England 2 weeks ago and managed to capture some open window action.
I had been slipping out the caravan most evenings/nights after the missus had gone to bed wandering round the park to find action but didn't have any luck at all.
Stayed outside this couples caravan the night before as they were one of the few who would have their window open and were talking fairly loud. I guess after 3 late night (by 2 AM I would give up) I was tired myself and had an early night. But before I went to bed I placed a recorder under the hedge as close to the window of that one caravan as possible. The distance was still about 20 feet. Managed to capture the following.
I stayed outside their window again 2 more nights but that was it. I did capture 2 more sounds from other couples on my memory stick recorders (I came prepared with 3 memory sticks and a hand held) but the sounds are that faint that I have decided not to keep them.
And yes there was a field with cows nearby
Couple in their mid to late thirties. She was not bad looking at all...

I have a smattering of cow. Translation follows:
6:57 "sounds like someone's getting lucky tonight, listen!"
7:40 "GET STUCK IN SON!"
8:32 "encore...?"
9:20 "come back Cynthia, there might be more yet"
The last moo is cut off, but I reckon it was probably the start of Cynthia the cow asking "anything else happening?"
Really good recording, btw! Your first contribution isn't it?

Yes it is. I am not used to being a leecher rather than a poster but sadly with this it is a bit out of ones own control. Now that the sun is shining I place memory sticks outside open windows most evenings but this neighborhood is just shit. Almost only 50+ white people, I am not getting much luck. Not been lucky in hotels either. God is teaching me to accept and deal with disappointments...
Picked up 2 memory sticks I left last night, just now. let's see if that brings any.

Don't be too hard on yourself man. The most any of us can do is upload 'em when we get 'em. Lack of opportunity doesn't automatically make you a leacher here.
Good luck with those sticks outside! Been hoping for something outdoorsy myself from the flats opposite, but no joy yet.

This is a good catch, Master Findu!
I see the Force was with you.
Thank you for your persistence.
I will go to holiday near to Lake Balaton,
hopefully I will catch similar sounds like this.

Scott-uk's translation of 'cow' certainly makes a change background noises from TVs, air-conditioners, passing trains and vehicles. A good effort considering the locality and the distance from the target. I thought he says: 'If it's good enough for you, it's good enough for me", but that might have been one of the cows.

Those caravan parks seem to be a good place for audio voyeurs. Have been on camping sites (tents) without any luck but this weekend I had my second experience with campervans ... sadly again without the chance to record the action.
