Caravan Club Facebook advert

I'd go along with the idea of turning off all the lamp posts and bollard lights so we can see the stars again as in days of old.

Is that not why the caravan makers provide huge roof lights anyway?

Once again a suggested page on my fb appeared, so out of interest I clicked on Club page.

Question, who would you like to pitch beside? Copied and pasted from fb site

Who do you want by your side on your next adventure? Add a comment and tag the friend you’d love to pitch up next to.

Is this not false advertising?  It is certainly giving the wrong impression.  This club operates on a first come, first pick of unoccupied pitches - rightly or wrongly that's how it is.  So how can it be suggested that you pitch next to a friend???  This may be possible given all the stars are in alignment, there's an R in the month etc.  BUT it is not a given.  Unlike with the friendly club where you can request this, and if possible - we have managed this several times This club does not even allow the request for any sort of a pitch let alone a couple together.  VERY MISLEADING
 
 Maybe someone could report my post and we could have an official comment about these matters it on this thread?

Duly done, Mr Bakers.

Oh dear, you couldn't make it up could, a night under the stars alongside your friends....in your dreams only. 

Thank you 😆 from the feminine version 😂😂

You most certainly couldn't. 

I wonder what the ASA would have to say about it?

It's just the FB fantasy that creates the impression that this is possible. The reality is you'll be told to arrive at a site at the same time as your friends but you are not guaranteed a pitch together. Much more fun to traipse round the site with your BBQ stuff. 

Why not pitch together.   Here is how it is done.

Get a couple of those "Motor Caravan using this Pitch" signs and go for a wander round to select your pitch.   Stick the signs on the ones you want, bring your outfit to one of them and text your mate the pitch number for the other one.

Setthorns site in the New Forrest has no lighting at all ,and it's great to try and work out the star constellations
