Lakes - We're banned next year!
« on: 29 June 2008, 19:28:11 »

Re the Lakes visit.
Granted we were a bit late on leaving Burns Farm this afternoon - about 4 o'clock, but as we were heading back to the 'van Linda was marching across the fiel to unplug us because we were 'stealing her electric' & apparently we owed her another £8!
I sent a £10 deposit way back, and when I turned up, I said who I was to her daughter(?) who then asked for another £10. As far as I was concerned that was that. To then be screemed at across the field 'cos we apparently then owed more money really p***ed me off.
It's perhaps a good job that we're banned next year, not that I think we'd want to go back, cos Burns Farm seemingly needs to go on communications & organisation course so the left hand knows what the right hand is doing. As far as Linda was aware, we were going to use the field on the other side of the wall from where the 3 caravans & Mark(Chopsdad?) were pitched, but we all pitched where the daughter(?) told us on 3 seperate sections of the site.
Considering the number of paying customers in tents on the 2 or 3 pitches at the opposite end of the site I don't think that Burns Farm did too badly out of the week end despite of us 'stealing' some electric!

Ljay tore the daughter off a strip as well.

They told Chopsdad we were no longer welcome, though the daughter fooked it all up. Dozy bint changed her story every day.

So we could share electric hookups, we squeezed 4 tents in 2 pitches, then she wanted to charge us more as we were parking in another pitch that they thought they could sell. Couldn't get it in to her head we were already saving pitches with 4 tents on 2 pitches.  She was also moaning that tents were getting bigger now. FFS, she's an effing campsite owner.


The incompetitence of the women who run it aside, it was a good weekend.

She seems to think that we short changed her. She started on about Radcap to me ....... for which she was told to 'discuss' it with them & not me! >:(
Daughter(?) wasn't too happy about cars being worked yesterday though either. Not that I think any of the other punters had anything to say about it. No noise being made, all mess cleared up, we weren't encroaching on anyone else's pitches.
Linda will be reading this ...... hopefully.
OH! And she has all our registrations!   :-?

Thats site may have some very intereresting reading on it in a weeks time, please remend me to go back and read it.  :D

Sounds like they couldnt organise a piss up in a brewery from the bits I have read on the forum.

Will she?

Plenty of other sites I expect.

Not universally popular - mind a lot of site pee someone off, this is why I like CLs

Sadly i couldn't attend this one. The first one was great, only marred by being accused of making some one else's noise which she did apologise for later. Seems she failed her O level Commerce given that it could've been an annual earner for her, but given her attitude to paying customers & the lack of an allocated field which was promised maybe it's best to source a friendlier site next year.
   Otherwise i hope you all had a great time.

And why does she need them? Data Protection laws clearly state that she is only allowed to have information required to run the business, and that information must be secured. Not written on several sheets of paper like I know the rest of out details are.

We all paid the amount she asked. If she cannot arrange a piss up in a brewery, that really isn't our issue.

Chopsdad has a plan, and it doesn't involve Burns Farm.

May even be chance of a 'out of season' Lakes meet that does not involve tents  :-X

It will cost them a minimum of a 5 spot per number to find out who owns what from DVLA, as far as I recall, perhaps more....    ;)

They were zoomers last year...  Nice to see they remained consistent....   :y
