Just opened up this months magazine ,not only the leaflets on the outside we now have a booklet glued in in the middle , total load of rubbish imho we are not over the age where we need these products and if we did I would get them over the Internet  and most importantly this is supposed to  be a magazine about  caravans motor homes etc which is in the leisure industry , Once again greed has over taken some people in the ivory tower , we will not be renewing our subs next year just like so many others ,there are a number of issues which don't work for us now , It a shame this was a good club years ago .

Wanted to like this post but realised I don't like but agree!

I'm a reader of anything but even I'm hard pressed to find things to read. It certainly isn't caravan or motorhome motivated - I learn far more from CT 😂

I wonder if they got the re brand correct. Seems to me the Caravan and Moaner-home Club would have been more appropriate.

Interesting bit page 16.  Bookings for sites open all year.  From 22 Aug you will be able to book for stays between 4 Jan & 15 March 2018.

N1805, that's handy, I didn't spot it. If Baltic Wharf is still open it's a good time to book. Thanks for the reminder and details.

ah, the classic 'cant book your whole New Year break in one go' scenario.....after booking the first bit earlier in the year, you have to wait untill August to book from the 4th Jan onwards....

you couldnt make it up.

please, please, please CC, choose a date thats not slap bang in the middle of a peak holiday week.....

suggestion.....how about some time 'off peak' like (say) 25th Jan?

again, a simple admin change.....

to choose 3rd/4th Jan each year is so blooming annoying....

two bookings, every year to stay for the New Year week.....frown

BB I feel your pain wink but isn't it the 4th Jan because that's when some sites close for the winter undecided I remember going away in January and noticed when I did a  search that although it returned lots of sites a fair number of them closed on the 4th. If the club were to extend the booking to say the 28th as you suggested could there be a possibility that some members could be 'confused' innocent

Perhaps the date for site closures should also be amended to 8th January which would resolve this issue. As BB says, it shows a lack of foresight in the way New Year bookings operate in the real world.
