If I failed to arrive on my intended day, I assume that my name would go into the little (but expanding) “black book” as a “no show”, but I wonder what would happen to my booking. At what stage should a warden consider my vacant pitch becomes available for someone else’s use?

I would assume it would be the next day. If you were not in the late arrivals area and had not phoned, your booking could be considered void. Would be interesting to know the official line though.

But of course that would not apply to the responsible people who post on here would it ,as the site would have had a call,the wardens and ex wardens we know,say that there are very few "No,Shows"people will phone to say they cannot come,even after real disasters,including partner deaths ,even on the day!! and its not unusual for the site to be contacted,after serious accidents by the police or hospital to advise

We used to wait till the next morning. If no one on LNA or a phone call then the booking would be "no showed" and therefore all remaining days cancelled.

Admiral I think that is often due to pitches being held back because of weather conditions. If the conditions are suitable they can be released at the last minute. Or as in your case when you phoned.

Not so sure Steve as we only try to book Hardstandings.

That's just what I'd rather expect.
