Its very easy to use CY. It is organised into sections if that is what you want.  Otherwise you get a list of the threads that are active on any particular day if you want to follow or comment on them.  Nice friendly crowd.

I'm on the verge of jumping ship as well. I had a quick look at Caravan Chat yesterday and see quite a few 'exiles' there. A preliminary examination suggests that there is just a straight list of topics rather than organised in sections which doesn't seem very useful. Can anyone familiar with it reassure me as to its usability?

Hope you get home safely soon Kj.

Glad your son has found another house to rent Helen. Fingers crossed for his house and his new job.

Another shift in the Visitor Centre this morning. Much busier than last week so really interesting and good fun. Also a school party with their teacher. They were all really polite nice children.

Sounds like you are enjoying volunteering in the visitor centre  Millie. We are hoping to get away towards the end of the month, Ferry Meadows site looks like a possibility at the moment.

I can't see what everyone is having problems with, apart from being slightly slower, I have found CT ok.The CL search however is not as good, and lots of problems with reviews etc. Have managed to use it well enough to enable me to book a couple for our summer holidays though.

I don't tend to use forums that much, but have taken a general look at some others and haven't been that impressed with any of them.undecided I don't think everyone "jumping ship" is going make things improve any quicker.Perhaps my son who has just got a job with the co-op bank digital team to make their website easier to navigate and use should have applied to work for the CC! wink

Without CT I expect problems with the new web site would have emerged much more slowly. But until the CL and rally section are improved and even the poor old story section gets a look in (so much lost on there!) It won't get my seal of approval. But this isn't a comparison with other forums because it's the main CC web site that needs sorting and CT appears to be running OK for many of us.

Exactly, sort out what matters first and although this Forum is integrated I'm happy to muddle along with it alongside the others I share time with smile

I fell off my chair laughing!

There I was waiting for my car to be MOT'd and an elderly gent came into the garage, well agitated - he could hear an unusual noise whilst driving his car and could it be investigated?

Manager went out for a drive with him and that was the last I saw of the gent.

The noise was caused by a nodding meerkat on his dashboard.laughing

Thank you so much for this post it made me laugh out loud, as did my husband when I read it out to him. It's really brightened my day. Just feeling a little blue today, no idea why apart from grey and raining weather and things that need to be sorted but not in the to mood to do 🙄.

The day started out dull, but the sun has finally broken through the clouds, I'm feeling warmer already.

Had a good sleep last night, but still not totally recovered from 18 hours of rattling on UK roads!  If I was having to make this trip again, I would spend the day in London and book a bunk each way.  However, it was an interesting experience.  Never seen such a small toilet compartment anywhere before!

Might it have been more comfortable if you had gone by train?
