just booked a few weeks at the blackpool south club site .But it now seems that they have altered the arrival time from 12 to 1 o-clock I can go along with that as its a very narrow lane outside so no room to queue with out causeing a traffic jam . My gripe (complaint) is that sites don,t enforce the leave time we have seen people in caravans leaving at 4pm at blackpool and believe it or not 2 leaving southport site at 6.30pm (caravans) you can,t tell if motorhomes are leaving or just nipping out so come on club sites lets have some rules everybody has to stick to in fairness to all members.

No idea ET. It's only a phrase to me, I could have used Purple Book, Green Book, the Good Book, Delia's Cookbook, but I think you get the gist!laughing

 

Edit: Purple and Green will only be relevant to those who may or may not have been Union members in the past........that choice is now denied many, but hey ho, life progresses.......zero contracts, minimum wages, no holiday pay...........

Isn’t it simply a metaphor? 

I very much doubt that any religious implication was intended. After all, that would be against the rules. laughing

It is indeed. Every customer has an equal right to arrive at site after the "No arrivals Before"  time

"I am not sure why with a few exceptions, like the earlier cross channel ferry quoted, anyone should ever be more that 5 mins early."

 

Then again, why would the club bend the rules for a very infrequent user, staying for just 1 night, but not for regular users staying, say, for a week?

But as we now know that was before the WTD was "forced?"on UK business, and site staff worked all hours for little reward,now it is very few sites that the  site staff are even contracted and paid to work the Max 48 hrs ,some are paid to work less than 40hrs which spread over 7 days is not a lot to be "available"as some members expectations would hope for,

Our world is a much better place for more people because a few brave individuals and groups decided to challenge tablets of stone.

I am not Christian. Wonder how many in UK are?

Stone tablets were around long before Christianity was invented.
