As far as as I can see plenty of people are having their say on various topics, Brue.
If there’s a subject you don’t like, don’t respond as posting encourages interaction. As David says, if people don’t post responses, the issue will die.

I would be keeping a rather lower profile Malcolm, there is this rule about the use of seasonal pitches and you don't want to lose yours I reckon.....
USE OF OUTFITS ON SITE 4.1 Seasonal and Base Pitches are available for recreational purposes only and not for residential or business purposes.
I know you think you are using it for leisure, being there of course only when you are not working, but somehow I do not think that is the interpretation the Club had in mind when the rule was written!
Other people do use their vans on seasonal pitches as they have to be away working, but I would think they do actually have a genuine residential address elsewhere.

Just had a quick peep at RSPB Loch Garten Video link to see what's eating peanuts in the Northern Reaches. This old man nearly fell off his seat laughing !! A rather slender warden up a ladder and hugging the tree with one arm & trying ( finally with success
) to attach with drawing pins ( Thumb tacks to some of you ) a Christmas message***. Which ever R S P B man it was he needs congratulations from us Members for braving the forest in what appeared to be a lightweight looking jersey and going up a ladder where he seemed to be rather nervously hanging on
!!
*** Sadly in order to read all the message i'll have to look again in the morning 'cos top half of the message isn't visible, it's blanked out by the cameras lighting system !! At least he can go & get a hot drink now-- Job done.

Very heavy frost this morning but by mid morning the sky had clouded over and it was a bit warmer, relatively!!! I decided to get the motorhome out on the side of the house to wash off all the grime from our recent trip to Chatsworth. All looks a bit better now. Gasman arrived at around 1.30pm to service the boiler. Fortunately it passed muster for another year.

I do have a genuine residential address that is shared with my cousin. It is a large three bedroomed detached house with a driveway. That is my official residence and I have a tenancy agreement signed by him.
I do NOT, I repeat NOT do business on my seasonal pitch. My employer is in Lancing and has a premises for me to work from. I'm on their payroll just like other people who use club sites and have a job.
Sorry, Kj but what I'm doing is well within the club rules.

I would beg to differ Brue, I’ve seen it for a very long time. Not forgetting I have no axe to grind either way as I skim over the things of no interest to me without complaining. I’ve also noticed others having a long string of communicative posts without incurring snide comments or sarcastic asides. . . .Why is that I wonder🤔. No one can dominate a thread, when they’ve posted others can post on any subject they like(within T&C’s) if anyone has an issue with a poster they don’t engage with them, constantly carping about someone is unfair & borderline bullying. I would suggest to all-if you have a complaint about someone use the recognised route-not haranguing individuals.

Absolutely right, EasyT. If I'm using my seasonal pitch for days out to visit places, which is what actually happens in our case, that is recreational use, end of story! Sitting inside the caravan watching wildlife from the window, birds, squirrels, foxes etc. can hardly be described as business or residential usage, can it?

You said in a previous post that the banks lend me money through credit cards etc. irresponsibly. Far from it! Their decisions are based on my credit rating and income less expenditure. They can see from my credit report that I have an excellent credit rating. Furthermore, with no rent or mortgage to pay, my disposable income is probably higher than people earning more than £30,000 a year. All payments are met on time and this shows in my record. I'm low risk and this is reflected in their relationship with me.

Me too! I don't complain about other peoples posts even though some of them might be mundane and boring to read, so why should others complain about mine?

Woke to a hard frost this morning, but has got warmer during the day, haven't been up to to much, as been at work. OH took friends car down for MOT passed so she was pleased. Got OH to hand deliver a few cards for me, save me the walk.😄

Our motorhome looked pretty frozen this morning. We had forgotten to drain down the taps and open them so OH has been out and sorted things.
Carol service in our village tonight but not up to going. Are we in for another cold night? Keep warm everyone.

Our caravan was absolutely filthy after our trip to Ferry Meadows we went to collect a few bits from it last weekend but as it was freezing it didn't get a wash, waiting for it to warm up a bit.😉😉

Ours is dirty too, well all bar the front which I hate to see filthy, because we have been away in it for over 2 weeks now and it will only get dirtier before we get home sometime in mid January.

We'll be going away to Baltic Wharf CMC site tomorrow, Thursday 21st December for two weeks. We're hoping it will stay dry whilst we take the awning down and pack it away, ready for use when we get to Bristol.
This will mean another trip back to the house address to swap the Smart car for the Shogun before hitching up to go. So the Smart car will remain parked at the home address for the two weeks that we are away, ready to collect once again when we return.

Just one question! Has anyone tried using their satnav to get to the Baltic Wharf CMC site? Can it be done or will it take me down roads that are unsuitable for towing?
