    Probably sums it it up nicely, no harm in it if it removes the perceived stress from anyone.

     I always get sorted using CLs, affiliated sites, or independent operators, virtually never club sites. I would like to use club sites but there are better alternatives for me that have a modern booking system that confirms my booking, and pitch. Some have online pitch selection using a virtual walk around, its like magic.  And yes, I have to book early as any good site sells out quickly but not 12 months in advance.

    And no, I will not book random dates and slowly fill the missing nights by phoning some chap every week to see if I have been jumped up the queue, my time for booking is limited and my leisure time is limited and very precious and most of all its not the 1960s any more.

    Going by your first paragraph, and especially :

    ...virtually never club sites. I would like to use club sites but there are better alternatives for me that have a modern booking system that confirms my booking, and pitch

    I really don't know what and why you keep posting about not been able to use a club site and how frustrating it is for you? You appear all you have all you want already? Also if you use club site virtually never how do you know members are frustrated with the bookings?

    However it does confirm my first (inverse square) law of CT. Those that use club site the least want the most changes.

    I agree that those who are happy with something, anything, will not generally want any change, but that is not the point of my first law of CT and not at all what I stated anyway, I think you have hastily misinterpreted it.

    My law is, why those that use club sites the the least want the greatest changes. Why?

    If I'm not happy with something I simple don't use it or buy it. Does anyone?. That is certainly blindingly obvious as you would say.

    I simply use or buy something I do like. What I do not do is post (at great length then admit I virtually never use) about changing the thing I don't like into something I do.

    Your reasoning? as to not being able to get available booking slots  why? so go elsewhere , just shows if you mean unavailabe when booking late it seems,  the clubs are doing better than those who have availabilty,  for the few who have to take a less attractive choice

    Your resistance to considering change appears to be clouding your logic

    sorry what change are you referring to? I simply said I buy things I like rather than post about changing things (clubs, products) I don't like into things I do, what change and what logic?

    Because they use the sites the least due to not being able to get available booking slots so many like me just give up and use other alternatives.

    Again you appear to be speaking for them, what is your evidence that this is true? There could be a whole host of other reasons?

    But yes as said above, you appear to wanting something and because you can't get it easily enough you want the system to change to suit you? Never mind your fellow members who perhaps will lose out on weekends. I ask is that fair to them?
