Does the Club Mag care what we think ?

Did you get an automatic acknowledgement for both your e-mails? If not it might suggest the mails did not get through or perhaps the recipient might be on holiday and not actioned the Out of Office warning? Were the mails addressed to an individual or just a general e-mail address. If we have this information the CM might be kind enough to pass the information through to the editorial team for you.

 I doubt they'd bite the hand that feeds them

. . . unless it is not feeding them fast enough when they most certainly will.

the 1st email was sent to - magazine@caravanclub.co.uk

.the 2nd email was sent to - enquiries@caravanclub.co.uk

this 2nd email did get a response from Tina Macnaughton ( club email support team ) who said she forwarded it to the magazine for their attention.

I have not received any other response or acknowledgement.

If we were to cut you in half Dave .... would we see 'Caravan Club' ..... like a stick of Blackpool rock?

I've only ever had a reply from the echeleons of the CC when it suits ... and if you then querie the reply of sorts you get the reply of SFA

All I am trying to be helpful to the OP but clearly needed more detail before passing onto the CM to see if she can help get a reply.

Whether what you get back from the Club is what you want to hear is a different matter but we have to accept they may take a different view which doesn't corresponde with your own. I recently sent a photograph for a motorhome service point in Germany which I thought would be idea for use on Club sites and which could probably be installed at much less cost than the planned upgrades. The Club thought differently but at least I tried, that is all any of us can do.

My advice would be do not feed them, leave them at a distant, this is the advice I would give for all wild life.  The people who write this stuff really should know better.  No matter how tame or semi domesticated they appear to be they are annimals of the wild and should be respected as such

Hi DreamMachine,

I’ve spoken to the Magazine Team, and they have informed me that they have received your email, and they thank you for concern.

The Club would never actively encourage young children to play with wild animals, the story was intended to encourage kindness and helpfulness. I’m sorry that this had been misconstrued and that you hadn’t received a reply sooner.

Write your comments here...Well at least that's something - but  an acknowledgement email wouldn't have taken much effort would it !

There was a report in the national press a couple of weeks ago of a mother letting her young son touch a squirrel in a local park because it was soft and sweet looking.However said squirrel and his mates attacked child,and he ended up in A&E . Don't touch just look.
