Please tell me which site this is?

Thanks for the memory jogger. It’s coming back to me now. I suspect it was one of those threads which started off OK but I probably gave up the will to live a page further on.

We are definitely trying to use member's photos more and as mentioned we have re-introduced the CT column in the magazine and this will be a regular feature and I will always try and include a picture from one of our CT members.
With regards to the photos mentioned in this discussion, I have forwarded to the content team and asked them to look at this. Thank you for highlighting this and for your feedback.

Thanks for that Ro. Will you be letting us know what the content team have to say about using American photos in place of British one?

There are equally misleading photographs on the C&MC Facebook pages - including a recent one obviously intending to attract younger people, of young friends, who appeared to have two campervans on the same pitch with no more than a couple of long strides between them.
I don't understand why the club can't just use real photographs of their own sites - even if they have to stage the 'ideal family', 'ideal young couple' or 'ideal retired couple' enjoying the site. This way they could make sure genuine members recognised the sites, and that the sites were real sites showing newcomers what they should expect if they joined.

We were on the C&CC's Sandringham site one year when they were setting up a photo shoot, of a smiley face made up of one-man tents, which then appeared on the front cover of their magazine.....you could spot our caravan in the corner of the photo. Why couldn't the CC do similar?

So if someone starts up playing a guitar on site and the warden has had a member complain, how is it explained away?
I remember that not long ago there was a picture of a family "enjoying"themselves on site by playing cricket with a picture of the caravan or maybe M/Home in the background. Really? Haven't the wardens got enough to cope with? You would think that the people responsible for such idiocies would know from their own caravanning experience that having a cricket ball flying around on pitch may not be ideal. Oh, then again, maybe they don't have any caravanning experience.

The club do take photos on their own club sites, I have had my child my caravan and my car all appear in the club magazine. My car was for a while on the banner of the car insurance leaflet, until I asked for it to be removed. As a Japanese import the club had refused to insure it yet used it, without my permission, to promote their insurance. I think the key thing here is sloppy use of photos. I find the two shared by Boff to be downright misleading, if not actually fraudulent. I hope They are removed promptly.

It could have been pitch 7 at Bladon Chains on our second visit where an older RV type unit was pitched.
On our first visit there was a small Airstream pitched with a lantern hanging from the roll out awning on the same pitch.
'Summertime' softly playing on the sound system, glass of your favourite tipple, barbie cooking away, grass pitch, sheep in the field next to your pitch.
Seems pretty idyllic to a relatively new family member as us.
We did finally get pitch 7 when we went to the Lunar Cinema at Blenheim to see Spectre. LC is an American copy of the drive in movie theatre, of which I believe there is actually only 1 left in the US.
It's a new adventure this caravanning lark.
