Reserving the showers - anyone come across this?
The shower block closest to us on our seasonal site has two shower cubicles. On Saturday morning my daughter and I went down there together and there was only one vacant cubicle so I sent my little girl in there while I waited for the other one to come
free.
After a minute or two I couldn't hear any movement from the occupied shower so I tried the door and it was locked. I waited a little while longer and still there was no sound of running water or shuffling around so I peeped under the small gap under the
door and saw that there was no light on either. Now the lights in the cubicles are those that come on automatically when you open the door so I took my caravan key and used the keyring to turn the lock from the outside, opened the door and found that the
cubicle was empty. It was obvious that the shower had been used quite recently because there was condensation in the cubicle and water on the floor.
So I had my shower and went back to the caravan and told my husband about it. He said that he would bet that someone had been and used the shower then locked the door behind them so that someone else in their family could go straight in afterwards without
having to wait. Funnily enough, as I was waiting a lady did come in but when I told her that both cubicles appeared to be occupied she said that she would go to one of the other shower blocks instead. Perhaps the locked shower was meant for her.
