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.

I am sure their website is full of people moaning about that? or maybe people just book  and accept it and get on with their holidays? or don't book as they don't like those times and go to a club site?

Just explain to us again how that "reservation fee" for your pitch in Croatia is entirely different to "booking", David! undecided 

On second thoughts, since this thread is about UK Sites,  maybe better not to! wink

Old? Who’s old? Having fun keeps you young. Better that than being a GOG. laughing

I don't believe it!

Actually, a couple of chums are GOG's, they know it and exploit it deliberately, to the great entertainment and teasing of we sober-side types wink

I'm sure it both busy and popular, just wondered if people moaned on their 'forum' about the rules?

Yes JVB

The operative word there is "booked" no doubt when you traveled "over there" you would, like me have just turned up at whatever time within reason your journey dictated and been admitted. If I was to start booking overseas sites I feel sure their paperwork would carry a similar message to yours but the difference seems to be that if I was "naughty enough" to arrive at 11 am "hell would freeze over" before they turned me away.

If that is the rules for the site why would we think it does not apply to us and turn up earlier,,as said so many times it is the few who flout instructions, that make it difficult for staff and by playing on the their good natureundecided

Exactly.

How many Buddhists does it take to change a light bulb?

 

 

 

Only one, but it must really want to change...........
