When is a rule not a rule?

Just got back from Cromer Seacroft site where there are two notices at the entry stating “Sorry no arrivals before 1.00pm”. However on at least two occasions we witnessed people, not only arriving before 1.00pm but being booked in and allowed on site, why do I bother timing my journeys and / or stopping in lay-bys to ensure I arrive after the advertised time when the rule is so blatantly ignored by others (including the wardens who allow it to happen)? 🤬

Exactly. Sainsburys sell at full price and give you a discount for having a card They don't sell at a discounted price and impose an increase if you don't have a card which is, in effect, what CC Ltd does.

No.

The club sells exactly like Sainbury's, if have a (membership) card you get cheaper prices, that simple really.

In fact it's better than Sainburys, as with the club card you get reduced prices on all of its sites, unlike the nectar card which only gives you reduced prices on selected and indeed different prices each week. And of course you can quite easily not pay a penny for that reduced price, or membership, all the time.

But if you find this 'penalty' such a burden why do you pay it? To get a cheaper price perhaps when you stay on club sites, which you do of course? Or to get the advantages of CLs... Doesn't matter what it is you pay the membership fee as there is an advantage to you, not a penalty.

My understanding was that the change from 12 to 1300 hrs admittance was because or COVID and to allow the wardens time to sanitise key fobs, barrier cards etc. Now the COVID regulations are gone, the club should return to a policy of 12 out, 12 in, except for sites with potential traffic issues

The change in access times was supposed to be a temporary measure during COVID. I have not seen anything about reversing this

I've experienced the same as Micky. Non-members quickly become members I think.

Btw, the difference is now £13 p/n.

I reckon at least 80% of non members who stay on club sites join up, and the majority of them keep using our sites. Strange concept to some I know

Where did you get the temporary from?

The end of the day the reasoning is sort of immaterial, the club have decided on a 13.00 earliest arrival time, that's it.
