I keep being pestered to add my out fit to my profile, why?I know how long it is and the width, I also check for any limitations on size at sites which I may visit, it is under 8 meters in length so should fit on most sites, wish they would leave alone cannot sleep at night worring about this.Innocent

now, K, even for a club-lover (and yes you can use that) like me, I can't believe that there is any warden who is so efficient that they actually check your car number plate against their records when you arrive

Actually, it does sometimes happen, Corners. Last year at Cirencester when I arrived I was greeted with "Hello Mr M....."

I said "oh, am I the last arrival today, then?"

No, replied the nice lady warden, "I just saw your car registration!" (And, no, it's not a personalised one!) Happy

Similar to always being asked for the tow car registration number when booking in on site.  I'm not sure what on earth use that is as the tow car rarely stays on site.  If I'm on my own the tow car is needed back at home and I either have my little motor with me or I do without, depending on where I am.

I personaly think it is sensible to take note of the tow car and any other vehicle moving on and off site. Information gathered  can be used as a deterrant against misdemeanour's.We the members have everything to gain and nothing to loose if law abideing.

We changed our tow car after we booked our summer holiday  and when we arrived at the CC site to book in, they actually pointed out to me that the registration was different! As we had only picked our new car up days prior to our holiday I couldn't even tell the wardens what the new reg was!

Similar thing happened this year when we arrived at Clumber. It's easy for the warden to check the reg number against owner as both are listed on their arrivals' print-out.

Not sure what tbe problem is. The information is hardly secret and takes seconds to input. The only thing I would change is the computers habit of assuming I am bringing a different caravan to the one logged into the system and making me go back to that.

And having to put in the same car number every time.
