    I’m sure M will help you with the maths, JV. You really should stop digging and issue that apology instead.😤

    Some hopes of me getting an apology. From some posters who have got their knives out again ,but I am very patient so can wait until they see they were in the wrong yet again and will try any ways to wriggle out

    "Its is a shame that this thread has been turned into an attempt by some to score points and not reading their own and others posts before the attempt"

    That's a curious interpretation of the last few posts, JVB. You posted with the implications that it was impossible or at least difficult to park up in lay-bys because they were taken up by HGVs. I tried to explain to you that, as far as driving to north Cornwall along the A30 was concerned (which we do frequently) there was no such difficulty.  You could have just accepted that but tried to wriggle out of the fact that what you posted was, shall we be charitable and say,  out of date.

    Shall,  we leave it there or do you wish to continue point scoring (with incorrect information)?

    You are constantly being rude, you attack others for no reason, you accuse others of your own failings and you are in the wrong. Accept it and man up for once!

    As the times you and I differ with the journey as it was when I used it and for you at 8_9am and us midmorning when the HGVs were having their legal breaks would not be the same would it as many HGVs would need breaks by mid morninglaughing

    JK

    First point well made. I am away in the van at the moment and I just don't time to delete several pages of inappropriate posts, maybe someone else will or we will have to close the thread which saves a lot of time!

    On your second point given that it is suggested that the problem is widespread it seems to me that half a dozen people turning up early over a week hardly requires crisis management? What do people say to you when you tell them they are too early to be admitted? We all now want to now what happened to the sixth person who may have been not so understandingsmile

    It just needs managing appropriately, and it seems like it is. No crisis involved in my opinion just a little self inflicted inconvenience for the very few who turn up earlier than stipulated. I’m sure the message is getting across, the number of occurrences will continue to fall and those that are turned away will diminish as a result. 👍 Don’t think it will completely disappear mind as some are just incapable of not trying it on.

    I hope you’re right, Micky, about the few but we hear tales of folk turning up hours early every day. Just look at the pics Corners posted and see PD's post. Whilst not doubting JK, the problem would seem to be much worse than he’s experienced.

    It is not crisis management at all in my view, it is ensuring that people comply with the rules that (and I know I keep on saying this) they agreed to abide by. 

    In my view six in one week is quite a lot, and sounds as if it is happening on more than JK's site so there is definitely a problem. Are you condoning these early arrivals and saying it should be tolerated?

    How the sixth person probably replied reminds me of work when people who broke the rules got annoyed when it was all their responsibility for getting onto bother in the first place. At least with the club they have volunteered to come to a club site? 

    Well done to JK btw.

    Some friends of ours ran a non facilty. Site for several years,after running quite busy  with facilities sites and have said many times,that the members who visited the non facilty site were far more polite and understanding,of,   as then wardens rolls than a large amount of those who used facilty sites ,so I can quite see where JK is coming from,with his comments 

    I witnessed at FM a very irate member strutting his stuff in front of others who had turned up early,ranting about not being able to book in untill the office was manned in about 35 mins?,

    The duty manager waited until he had finished. his tirade  ,then asked if he had his booking confirmation,which he did , it as all said 1300 hrs as the arrival time ,

    He did say later he hoped the member was not a regular as the previous site staff would have let the arrivals on if not more than an hour early at twelve ,when they had cleaned the facilities even if there was only a couple of couples working that was giving the new staff a problem

    However, they are the very ones getting the message, and clearly needing to. Hopefully modifying their behaviour too. If the actions of JK and the others continue hopefully the numbers will fall dramatically as a result.

    Presumably the man doing the shouting was also many minutes early, which makes me wonder what he had to shout about.

    I would think the man doing the shouting was solo trying to return to the site and I dought the revue poster was the only one that was" adviised"as they were in a queue?

    I got the impression he was "in his car", leaving the site for an afternoon out.

    If not reading the rules is an offence then I am guilty as charged.

    Assumptions, impressions, guesses aside, one man’s quiet word could be described as a tirade or polite provider of advice, depends sometimes as to if you are the recipient or the provider or the type of character one is. We really don’t know the circumstances but we do know what time we are told to be tipping up! No discrepancy or confusion about that!

    Whilst you have folk with the attitude of the latest review for Warwick race course site, it’s going to be an uphill struggle.

    Perhaps the club needs to spell out to all members the reasons why it is not acceptable to enter the site gate before 1300.🤷🏻‍♂️

    I think they are doing it’s just that some are hard of understanding! I’m sure for most the message will get through!
