Hogmanay blues

We stayed on the site for 3 nights so that we could take in the New Year Fireballs in Stonehaven. We arrived a little before 12.00 on the Saturday (30th) and were welcomed by very cheerful and polite wardens. After pitching our caravan we decided to settle down to a nice peaceful and restful afternoon in the van. Reclining suitability watching tv seemed like a perfect escape for me, I relaxed and watched some rubbish repeats blissful in my laziness. All was well until the electric went off. Up I got, shoes on and out to check the circuit breakers at the electric post. They all were on so it was back into the van to check the circuit breakers in there. Then I noticed that all the light posts around the site were off, several people were also making a beeline for reception. Shortly afterwards the power was restored, but only for a short period before going off again. And so the cycle continued for the late afternoon and early evening. Before bedtime I went to have a shower only to find the toilet block locked. The next morning the power went off several times, the warden went around the vans on site asking people to be frugal with their power use. During the afternoon I went to use the toilets only to find them locked again. New Year’s Day morning started off very frosty, unfortunately the electricity hand gone off again resulting in us having frost both inside and out on the windows. A happy new year blighted by such an awful experience on this site. Having spoken to other club members who had stayed there the previous Hogmanay the same thing happened then
