Steamer Quay refurb removal of non EHU pitches

Yes, this surcharge is certainly a surcharge...and at £15 it's Draconian...

hence, Draconian Surcharge😉

anyway, we've moved way off the removal of non EHU pitches at SQ, where the new refurb will mean price increases at about a level similar to the above Draconian Surcharge😉

Draconian is a subjective term. However, it is not a penalty. That was my point👍.

All EHU at SQ - bring it on🤣🤣🤣

I agree, as long as user are given the choice of not using EHU at a fair and appropriately reduced rate.

If you don’t pay it(optional) I’d suggest we are just not re draconian👍🏻

Of course it's a surcharge and has two objects, either encourage anyone staying more than a few days to join (as I did) or discourage non members  when they are a condition of the lease.

Well you could drive a few yards down the road at SQ and park up for £10, river views included.

My understanding is that all pitches will be serviced. So presumably there will be no choice other than to pay the SP supplement if one wishes to stay there. What is that - £4 / £5 per night??? I cannot see that we will be returning there.

...and added to the 'difference' (a number the club can come up with) between the current non EHU pitches and their typical HS pitch. Can't check on SQ at the moment as no prices showing.

I think SP are £4.90 (or so) more than, presumably, a normal HS.

Where would this leave an updated SQ serviced pitch?

...has to be at least £10 more than the current non EHU level and with 40 out of 43 pitches currently grass, no doubt there'll be a hike for that...possibly £12-£15 more? (Draconian?)

considering the location, town easily walkable, I imagine they'll be set similarly to places like Broadway, which is currently £52.20 for a summertime SP....ouch!
