Hogging taps

We've run our CL for nearly 14 years and have never seen guests hog a tap as you describe.

I have come across it once but cannot remember what kind of site it was. I took my water and reconnected it. Not difficult and no real hardship for me.

This was the very reason why I put water on every pitch, so that folks don't have to trail water about and have their showers in peace. Not an expensive or hard job to do with UPVC piping and connections.

You're spoiling 'em. You'll be offering silk underwear in lieu of hair shirts next.

Back in ‘simpler times’ you rolled onto a CL and pitched anywhere you fancied within the space available. Now we are getting fussy about being close enough to services to connect up.

What size are you Cyberyacht, got some empty chicken feed bags I could maybe resize !.

Seen  many  a  farm  worker  in  a  fertilizer  "Waterproof"  ==  just  crop  the  corner  for  arms  and  clip  a  hole  for  head  and  keep  them  thar  paid  staff  graftin'  by  'eck  !!

Then  the  Vanners  will  be  clamouring for  their  own  samples  ==  that  will  take  their  minds  off  the  taps  &  who  is  Hogging  them.

Is it acceptable/permitted to connected a splitter to the tap and leave your water pipe connected to one side of the connector, leaving the other side available for others to use?

That wouldn't bother me, I expect an outlet to be available where I can turn a tap and water emerges and that would allow it. It's not the extra 10 seconds involved when someone hogs it completely, but my annoyance at their selfishness that would have me leaving it on the ground.

But in all honesty, I have yet to come across it.

Never come across anyone doing this.  OK I suppose if only you and one other on the site, but if only one shared tap and more than 2 vans, I think you could be thought of as taking advantage unfairly.

(As in....you have done it but nobody else can)

Is it so difficult just to connect up the hose when you actually want to use it?  Or do as most do and take the water container to the tap? 

If you want, or need, a serviced pitch, there are CLs that provide this.
