Leaf blowing
We watched a warden wandering around the site this morning with her petrol leaf blower. There wasn't a leaf in sight, there's barely a leaf on any tree. The only things she blew were a few bits of stray gravel & a puddle. What a complete waste of time, effort & resources. No wonder the toilet block had to be shut at 10 to make time for such important tasks.

was 10 the normal time?

well if it shuts at 10 every day (and assuming they don't blow leaves every day) then your statement:
No wonder the toilet block had to be shut at 10 to make time for such important tasks
is a little misleading? The timing is another matter, do most want to shower at that time? I'm usually out and about by then.
personally if the site is of the usual quality and the toilets/showers are clean, I just leave the wardens to get on with it and run the site their way while I enjoy my holiday.

Really? Have you done a survey to come to that conclusion? I'd have thought, though I certainly have no evidence, that "most" would want to shower either earlier than 10 unless they're just having a lazy day on site, or, like me, later in the afternoon after being out walking all day.
Edit - just noticed your smiley to so maybe I took your comment too literally!

When I'm 'on holiday' I want to take my time in the morning .... walk the dog etc .... not shower to an early time table. I'd suggest that 10 is to early for most, especially when there are only 2 showers in each of the nearby shower block.
The wardens should be running the site to suit the majority of us .... not them, the waste of time leaf blowing was just the icing on the leaf-less cake.

Regardless of who wants a shower or when they want it, isn't it a bit of a waste of money to be blowing non-existent leaves around? It's usually quite noisy too, especially if you're trying to relax on site. Does nobody use a brush and shovel these days?

Leaf blowing - surely really only needed in the autumn so they can be blown into one place and gathered together. I’ve never understood why the wash blocks need cleaning in a morning. Surely they’re less busy in the afternoon?
I appreciate there are arrivals then but with the number of wardens on some sites it shouldn’t make a difference. But then, why do wardens need to clean the loos? I’ve said this before to use local labour for cleaning and reduce the number of wardens on site. Would certainly help the local economy at sites.

I've seen the blowers used to keep all the hard standing stones in the pitch.
what is this tread about, toilet cleaning times or what?

Then the school children would not feel that they need to strike about something that there tree hugging parents have indoctrinated into them and the whole world would be a better place (I dont think so !!!)

this is a wind up thread, First about using a blower, then non existant leaves (on a non existant site?), then shower cleaning times, now emmisions.
MM - you still go to work I believe, just enjoy your holiday rather worrying about this stiff. It will over very soon. Have a good one.
