Now that all the turbulence of last year's name change is over, I really hope that the Club can get the website sorted out

It really is a disgrace !!

It is so S-L-O-W that many a times I just give up ....... the CCC site by comparison is lightening fast and very responsive & a pleasure to use 

As one of the leading caravanning clubs in the UK, the website above all else is what really lets the organisation down

Get on a ferry and you will find campsites are just that (even the road signs portray a tent), never been to one yet that differentiated between tents caravans  MH  or any other form of accommdation,  no need to rejoinwink

AD, we’ve had this conversation before. When I leave the UK it’s to use Hotels for my breaks👍🏻. I fly, I don’t sail.

David why would try to put someone off joining the club,if you are not happy with it then just leave and let the members who enjoy and support the club carry on enjoying their hobby within that.

All this talk about divides ,Ive never come across it in the many years we have been members We just enjoy our hobby and enjoy meeting people regardless of who they are or what they are camping in .Life is very short ,enjoy it.

From a very happy Brian & Jo @Damage Barton site😊

As a member of both clubs why would I want to put him off joining  , it' not me who can' use the sites but buckets with his tent and in that situation he is probably right not to join an organisation that excludes him

Which organization is that then?as tents are accepted on very many cc sites unless it is not feasable

even the ccc have to have restrictions on what LV cannot use all their sites

Yes Tents are allowed on a growing number of CMC sites as are Camping pods and Yurts. This is a forward thinking concept where the CMC can earn much more money from their pitching areas. Also broaden the appeal of campsites for families and young people. ---- Not to the total exclusion of touring vans though, as there will need to be pitches available for those people.

I do wonder why those with Overtherepostitis cannot accept that so many people with LV enjoy the experience of touring over here as well as people enjoy touring over there.

Additionally they seem to have an added complication that insists that when you do go over there it has to be with a LV. Other modes of holidaying over there are simply not to be considered as possible or desirable.

I do wonder why those who have, apparently, spent the last year on a survey researching beautiful places to stay in the UK with superior sites to those run by the club, should be so keen to suggest that "over there" is so much better/braver/mind broadening etc.than using the results of their survey.

Surely they'd have been better off carrying out their survey "over there"? wink

"Over There" -- What does that mean ? sounds like something a " Little Englander" would say about any country which is a home to foreigners.;  Not that I'm suggesting that you personally fall into that category. frownwink
