     Add flashing lights all the way up the pole?

    Honestly, at night Caravan Club sites now resemble the front at Blackpool compared to years ago.  Little chance of seeing stars or watching the Northern Lights with so many bollards, light poles and awning lights burning all night long. Surely those who want to go about after sundown could use a torch ?

    Crannman,  I  believe  that  happened  at  C&MC Site  Altnahara

    The  Warden  had  a  Lattice  type  pole  by  his  m/home  and  a  line  of  twinkly  blue  lights  hanging  from  it,  and  moans  there  were  !! 

    Since  there  were  just  his  m/home  windows  and  the  sole  8"  or  so  square  light  on  the  outside  of  the  office  wall,  and  little  else  to  keep  the  sheep  amused,  I  turned  my  head-lamp  onto  "Strobe"  just  to  keep  'em  all  happy !!wink  Didn't  even  attract  any  more  midgie beasts  than  usual  !!

    "...all..."

    Hardly "all". I couldn’t care less about the flags etc and I’m not alone. Nobody has felt enraged enough to post for over two weeks.

    Lighten up, phil. The whole thing was a wind up.

    Flags occur an many sites in summer. Don't like them personally but HeyHo such is life. I doubt that TW would miss them laughing

    And I expect they’re happy now. Or maybe not. undecided

     

    It’s the playing of Last Post at sundown that gets to me, Corners. Expecting us all to salute while the flags are lowered is asking a bit much I think. surprised

    a curfew on site? could be a good idea? Also like flags on beaches which tell you when it's safe, different dangers on site could be shown by different flags, red flags for kids on bikes, white flags for showers covered in talcum powder, green for grass cutting and perhaps brown (just chosen at random) for any dog deposits?
