    We’ll never forget our unbecoming arrival at a Norfolk site in the company of friends. We needed to reduce our stay by one day, and they wanted to extend by a day.

    The woman owner/ receptionist started entering our details in her log and billing system, before she’d even asked our names. Three times she brushed off my attempts to explain our revised requirements, as an interruption to her concentration. When complete, she handed us the two bills and finally found time to listen to me.

    What followed included several symptoms of a nervous breakdown, blended with rabies, until her husband took over. Have we been back? You guess.

    Was it a club site, jennyc? It so then they've probably got new wardens by now and so the problem should not arise again, therefore no reason not to go back, unless of course there are other things about the site that were not to your liking!!

    No it wasn’t a CMHC club site Nellie, it was an adults only site, which our friends favoured, though we tend towards back to nature facilities. I’m pleased to say that save for very few minor irritations, club wardens have always been helpful in every respect.

    While I’m inclined to assume that some sort of external stress was the cause of the warden’s demeanour, it has also to be remembered that we were paying for the privilege of staying on their site.
