Is it right that the Club has Adult Only sites?  My view is this: when you reach retirement age, your own off-spring have flown the nest and your life has moved away from the chaos of child rearing, then I can understand why many members are less than happy to spend their holidays around kids............or can I?  I mean really are you honestly so intolerant of the younger generation that you wish to exclude them completely from the site?  Joking apart I think there is a pretty serious principle at stake here and it relates round exclusion.  How can the Club be happy with a policy of excluding children from some sites?  If you carry on with that line of arguement are the club going to have sites which exclude, say dogs, to provide safe havens for the many which dislike canines?  Or what about, dare I suggest it a site that excludes the over 60's - that is purely for families?  If you follow the current policy this is where it leads you.  Adult only sites are a bad idea for the same reason that banning dogs or the over 60's from sites is a bad idea: it fuels prejudice, and although it is masked as a pleasant and correct policy of the club it is prejudice non the less.  Please Club, try to promote mutual respect and tolerence and change this rediculous policy.  For the record, I have two reasonably well behaved dogs and two reasonably well behaved children.......is that acceptable to the membership?
