    Wow that is not good, blink and you miss it.  Which if you consider that a lot of CL's are down country lanes will make it not easy.

    Even in that reduced sized photo, it stands out against the greenery quite well. Good placement is a must.

    Yes, if you stand in front of it. From the road it just looks like another white board. All four of our outfits didn't see it, if we didn't know where it was we wouldn't have spotted it.

    Think I would have missed the sign too. undecided Perhaps it's because we are so used to the old ones.

    Drove past Bladon Chains site yesterday,  old signs still up there.

    With regard to the CL signs, think they will be missed on country roads, hopefully CL owners will be able to put then in the most visable place from the road. Don't like the fact they have done away with "only 5" next to members only.

    Not sure why the new sign was even introduced it is very easily missed  and looks more like a gloomy advert .I'm sure the old one could have been adapted. Another change and not for the better.

    The new sign is 'absolutely fabulous' tongue-out....though we remind C&MC members that if you see the sign below it is a Calor Gas depot, not a new CL!

    Ditto.  Have been to Dorset, Devon and Cornwall for the last 6 weeks, and could spot the bright red on the old sign easily, but the new one not so.  Too wishy washy especially in bright sunshine (yes we did see some).  Don't object to the new design, just the colour choice.  Add a splash of red to make it stand out.  Even the Club sites larger signs are hard to make out.

    I've noticed some CL owners have resorted to putting both old and new signs out.

    Perhaps they were just too lazy to remove the old one.wink

    Seems a sensible idea to me, really. It will aid CL users to get  acquainted with the new signage,

    Went past the Cirencester Club site today and was surprised to see the old logo on some of the signage

    We stayed on a CL recently which only had the old signs - not going to "name and shame" them though, because it as an excellent CL and we intend to return!  smile

    Frankly I will never recognise nor accept the new name or Logo.  It really does not matter in the bigger picture, but having been ignored in the none existent consultation process I cannot accept the new name.

    I fully accept that as a result I must done the cloak of the Dinosaur, but so be it. I am happy to accept that mantle.

    Just back from using two CL'S one still using old sign and the other using both, I know which one stood out more and was easier to spot. winklaughing

    I have no intention of changing the signs for our CL. Unless force comes into it.
