I have been caravaning for many years of life but have only recently joined the caravan club. My reasons for joining were that on all of the public sites I have visited the frequent appearence of the stupid flags flying high above the site really infuriates me. I really found this annoying so I decided that I should join a exclusive club such as the caravan club to avoid them.

The thing that has angered me enough to write this post is that when I made my first visit to a CC site i was appauled when I saw 6 of these retched flags on poles upon arrival. I immediatly went to the main office on the site to enquire about the flags that I was lead to believe were forbidden on these sites by some of my companions. I spoke to manager about the flags and he informed me that there was no such restriction on the CC sites.

This brings me to the point of my rant, although i am only a recent edition to the club I still feel passionately about making the atmosphere and environment on site the best it can possibly be. In my opinion these flags that people fly high above their pitch are a shameless waste of money. There have been two occassions over the past few days on this sight where I have been awoken in the middle of the night by the extremely irritating sound of the flags flapping in the wind.

I strongly feel that these pathetic flags should be irradicated from all of the CC sites, it would make them a much better place.
