Just had a lovely 5 day stay at the Hebden Bridge site, one of my favourites, although it is a very small site some people still can’t walk around the road to get to the water,waste and toilet dump instead walk across someone else’s pitch. Is it me or particularly in this age of social distancing does this annoy other members.

When ask politely to stop invading my space and maintain social distance they got grumpy.

Still the site is lovely Hebden Bridge just starting to get back to something like normal whilst observing the social distancing rules, unlike my pitch invader.

It's a bit like "why does the chicken cross the road?" Same answer really even if they shouldn't. wink

The answer to your question is simple. It's because they are inconsiderate oiks. Probably always have been and almost certainly always will be.

Life is awash with them.

Didn’t have that much of a problem with it when we had a caravan. However, a lot more prevalent now we have a MH. Presumably because there is much more bare pitch. Basically I believe they are lazy, or just don’t think.

A quick look at the site layout plan for Hebden Bridge plan will show why people from some pitches are cutting across other pitches to get to the only service point . Blame the site designer.

So walking across another person's pitch is ok then ET is it? You would do it would you?

Yes if it’s more convenient. And certainly so on that site layout.
