New Booking System

Does anyone know what the colours mean, light grey, dark grey, when it’s fully booked etc etc. am trying to book Steamer Quay for the first time and can’t work it out. 

I have been on a few other sites we know and scrolled through the calendars but what the use is it when you have no blooming idea what it all means. When it’s just a light or dark grey empty box what does that mean?

Club HQ, you need a Key, or at least an explanation somewhere how it works. 

Buried deep in the new booking FAQs is a list of consultees inc the executive, committees, site staff etc and I presume they all contributed to the go ahead. Whether this included the membership who actually used the previous booking system on a regular basis and could spot problems and ease of use isn't obvious.

One thing I remember when this forum started is that a few members trialled it.

I think there might have been some better outcomes if a few "ordinary" members had trialled the new system, the type of members who book CLs for instance and multiple holidays on a regular basis. 

However we won't know now and ongoing faults are being picked up after the event.

I think the Club is in the middle of negotiating the lease on Steamer so don't think you will be able to book until something is finalised. That maybe why its blank.  If they agree a lease I think they plan to upgrade the site this winter. As for grey shading I think that is just to help highlight the change of month?

If the site is "live" the days will have a price on them. Looks like a blank grey box means the site is not available?

A pity this info isn't stated on the site itself.

Thank you

So where are these new pastures you know off , that does not require a deposit ? 

It wouldn't surprise me if Grenville and the rest of the execs have a way of circumventing this booking shambles they have authorized . Just can't see them putting up with something as creaky as a rusty gate. 

It might also be that Azorah made his booking before the Club added the surcharge for electricity use?

They are out there, we haven’t paid a deposit to stay on a caravan/touring site of any kind since this Club ended its early venture into deposits, back when you sent a cheque through the post. 

Sorry, not knowing your preferences, likes, dislikes, better for you to do your own searching rather than me suggest somewhere that might have no interest for you😄 If you happily get on with booking system on here, you will have no problems finding some👍

It could be indeed DK, hadn’t thought of that.
