Oh yes, there's plenty of the traveling fraternity on site.
But they seem content to enjoy each others company over a can or two of whatever they drink.
I expect about now there will be a bit of bare knuckle entertainment in the beer tent by them................ seriously keep an eye on your gear.

Security gave me a lift to the MH last night after my last gig and said there had been very little problems this year.
Enjoyed it, and much as usual came away remembering all the things I told myself I'd see and didn't. Talked to some really interesting people though.
In an odd way the high point was the service for the late Michael Oliver who started the steam fair and died last year. The finale after the blessing when Quo Vadis sounded her steam whistle and it was picked up by the three of four other showman’s locos nearby, and then I became aware the whole showman’s line had let go, and as the close ones stopped you could hear the steam whistles going off in the play pen and way out in the steam ploughing and beyond Watford Gap. Weather-beaten old men turning to leave openly weeping, me too, spontaneous and very moving.
By the way, hope all you MHF visitors were tuned to Steamfair FM 87.9, Home of the Vintage Hits. I was on 19.30 to 22.30 everday from Saturday to a week Sunday bar one graveyard shift.
I had no problems apart from unmarshalled pitching which was happening on Friday afternoon where people were pitching up anyhow in the gaps left behind by those that departed on Friday.
My neighbours with the twin axled hobby caravan and the 47kg propane who turned up with noisy kids and a noisy generator turned their genny off well before the 11pm curfew and by and large kept their kids under strict control.
There were plenty of open BBQ's going (against the campsite rules) speeding (5mph limit) and blocking access through the rows with windbreaks. This made it difficult to get to the elsan points which were at the side of the field.
