    How many more times are you going to go on & on & on about so called block bookers fatbelly. You have no idea who’s booked what.

    Put your toys back in your pram and accept that others were more successful than you, simple as that.

     I'm with you fatbelly, the system is crap when it comes to trying to book a honeypot site. I wouldn't call them block bookers, speculators is a better word. There will be cancelations for sure and those that want full weeks are unlikely to be get them.

    Thanks Peedee,

    I think a lot of proper members will agree with us, but with the abuse and name calling thats done by some on this forum they're afraid to speak their mind.

    We've been planning a 3 week tour of the Lakes and Peaks for ages. Just come off the booking site and all booked (June/July) no problems at all. (3 sites booked).

    You did not manage to get your weekend at Rowntree. Does that mean you will have to stay home until next year? 

    How you claim the knowledge that it is down to other members who book and don't use the booking I have no idea. I also have no idea if all pitches were released for booking but I suppose that you know the answer to that as well.

    Logged in at 8am! That's dedication, BB. Were you actually trying to book CAMC sites? ("With your reputation" as that guy on The Fast Show used to say!) wink

    i logged in at 8:00 but didnt get a slot till 8:40, all the time refreshing the screen and hitting the 'book' button.

    Must be the way you hold your mouth BB wink 

    I have found that the system works with more fluidity year on year. I started trying at 8.15 and my 10 bookings done and dusted within 30 mins.

    Am I seeing this wrong or are all the grievances about Rowntree Park bookings with maybe an occasional one about Baltic Wharf or Chatsworth which doesn't seem to have booked up as fast this year. We decided to avoid York except for winter a couple of  years ago and try alternatives and it works. No problem booking a week in February and early March last September but you have to take the risk of cancellation or evacuation if it floods!

    Real or otherwise it will be interesting to see if this and MichaelT's similar post can provoke a reaction from club staff. At least it should prove whether there is any real staff interest in this forum.

    Why should they rise to the bait as it is obviously posted in jest.

    Anyway, back to the OP. It's now well into frenzy day (13:25) and I notice that Chatsworth has got plenty of full week/weekend availability throughout almost the whole of June, July & August. smile

    I don't see it as name calling fatbelly, more like members who don't want to see change and will resist it zealously.

    My guess is you will have no trouble with a mid week booking.
