Reading the latest magazine, and the Technical question/answer page 124, I was delighted to read the response to what units are allowed on sites. So many times I have been reported to the wardens for contravening rules, being in possession of a Turtle 1200 Teardrop Caravan. Here it was in black and white column, as an acceptable option, is teardrop caravans. Woah, I am dancing around my lounge at home, I love you, technical expert. This edition of the magazine will be stored away inside one of my two cubby holes onboard.....

TDJ.. Does this telling tales ever happen on commercial sites or does it only occur on Club sites (CAMC or C&CC)?

So far only Club Sites. On C, CC sites that I have been on, just a few; no problems at all. I would add, one occasion at Crystal Palace, the warden told the complainer in no certain terms; they loved to see me there each year. I heard this from sat on the bench outside the office, eating a lolly...... made me smile as the member walked past

I suppose as most C&CC members have probably progressed from camping they are more tolerant of anything out of the norm.

or maybe campers are just nicer people!!

I’m not sure about being nicer people but C&CC members seem far more willing to smile and say "Good morning" on site than their counterparts on CAMC sites.

I've also seen some very novel units on C&CC sites. The type of thing that would raise eyebrows on a CAMC site.

I'm quite amazed that so many of your find the actions of some wardens and other CC Ltd customers so surprising.

Posted on 29/03/2018 09:32

I have to add, that over the years no warden has ever told me to leave the site. All, that have spoken to me about the complaints have taken the view, lovely to see a teardrop on site.... I quite like our wardens, in general they are some lovely people; I particularly like the wardens Labrador dog, down at new forest centenary park, whom I suspect manages the place, joke
