    As the OP mentions super pitches, I assume one of the sites concerned is Chatsworth. They should probably avoid in the rutting season also.🦌🦌🦌

    The whole concept is rather silly. The club already has sufficient information on permanent noise sources, such as roads, factories planes and trains. To try and cover for all eventualities is ridiculous. Perhaps a read of recent reviews, just before the 72 hour cut off, might help the OP decide wether to go or not. However, any advice is totally subjective, so one persons disruptive noise,  is another's acceptable.

    One site we were on had Wood Pigeons that did a route march on the caravan roof early every morning. Perhaps we should have been warned.😂😉

    At the Burford site about 9am you hear all the monkeys from the neighbouring safari park go wild when the park opens, it is loud. Also roars from the lions at night. 

    Ps The RAF tend to work Mon -Fri also - hope Mr Putin isn't reading this, but by some posts I'm sure he is thoughsmile

    Don’t forget the lions at Longleat. They can be heard early mornings. 

    Putin? He’ll know the pilots’s names and all about pitching regs. 😁

    Kj - if the events are "unexpected" how can the club possibly know of them in advance and inform members? How is the club to know if and when bird scarers are likely to be used? There are lots of loud noises likely to affect any site and the idea that they should all should be specifically mentioned, presumably on the site's entry in the handbook or website is surely fanciful?

    As I asked before, what ever has happened to using one's initiative? If anyone thinks there are events likely to spoil their visit to a particular site, surely the onus is on them to contact the site and clarify the situation?

    For any information to be passed on the club would have to be informed in the first place. I would think the chances of being informed about the deployment of something such as a bird scarer, non existent.

    A few years ago a very large supposedly well organised event, the iron man at Tenby omitted to inform the club that access would be blocked to the site for most of the day. We were held up for 6 hours and the first the warden knew about it, was when I phoned to inform him that ourselves and about 20 others would be arriving together at about 6 pm.

    It's just an aspect of the hobby we all enjoy. There will be things that nobody knows about, get missed or are totally unpredictable. All part of caravanning / MHing, or any other walk of life for that matter.

    I did email the iron man organisers. They said they would try to do better next time.😀

    well actually it's

    To expect the unexpected shows a thoroughly modern intellect

    As you didn't know that quote, it sort of proves itsmile

    I agree with CS and it's nice for him to admit the fact that some arithmetic educators can't count. There's a true saying. "Those who can ----- do,  those who can't -----teach.-"

    --- It's not the first time I've heard that quote on this forum.

    Welcome back to the thread,  K! Any chance of you answering the question about which posts showed disbelief of the OP (I won't hold my breath! wink)

    As for that quote, let's  finish it off ..."... and those who can't teach end up working in the private sector!" laughing

    yes that quote is mostly used by a) real thick people who can't see the illogic in the quote b) those jealous of teachers for whatever reason, c)  failed teachers d) those that are jealous of those with an education.

    It's really easily shown to be absolute rubbish, let me teach you K

    So everything you were ever taught, from your parents showing you how to eat, use a knife and fork, tie your shoelaces, they couldn't do it themselves? Must be true if what you said is true, they taught you those things so by your statement couldn't do any of them, btw I am really sorry you had such parents Kwink 

    Then you were taught things for your job? Again anyone who taught you anything couldn't do it themselves? Your driving instructor couldn't drive? Those courses for towing should be stopped! 

    The best of the best in the RAF become a QFI (look it up) and now you tell that after all these year I was taught by people who couldn't fly?

    It's the same in any profession those that can do a job really well go onto to teach and instruct, and get paid more money as well. 

    Anyway glad to have helped you along K this time.
