Imagine my surprise when I noticed the march edition of the magaziine carries absolutely no mention of the Leisure vechicle survey, which apparently 40,000 of us spent 20,000 hours completing.  Surely by now the Caravan club have finished flogging off the
data to the highest bidder, whoops not sure what happened there.  I meant to say completed their in depth analysis of the replies.  To allow us punters a peek or is that too much to ask?

 Perhaps it has had to be held over to allow space for another press release from the Meeks and that Vogue Williams who she?  Opened the Manchester show.  I am told her lecture on making sure your toilet cassette was free from solids was a classic. 

Atn mods please feel free to move this to the "fun and trivia " section which appears to be where the survey is heading.

    I was expecting them by now and do wonder if the results are not what was wanted and have been lost somewhere.

    I was expecting them by now too. Maybe the survey has been outsourced to an agency who haven't completed the analysis yet? Or maybe not.....

    Or too busy selling insurance and foreign travel.

    Or, they have run it past their legal department and are now watering down the outcomes for fear of litigation from manufacturers who might be exposed.

    They might have found cracks in the data?

    They might have been annoyed because they received all the wrong answers.

    If they publish the answers they got then there is no basis for any action against the club. Practical Caravan have done it for several years and I do not think any action has been taken against them. The club have the advantage of a far larger number of
    replies so should have far better statistics.

    I would have thought if the Cc are worried about the legal implications of publishing the results.  Unless there is direct evidence that the results have been manipulated. There is nothing to worry about.

     My free legal advice would be for the caravan club to grow a pair.
