Should tents be banned or segregated?

[JoshB_]

First time for us using the camper and currently on a MH&CV Club site. Must admit there is a difference vs a “tent field”. As seasoned campers it is the people that ruin it.

But I firmly believe in segregation, but not what you’re in, but who you are. Just cut the field in half and have 2 signs at the gate.

Do you, follow site rules? Like the peace and quiet? Have respect for other campers? Then turn left.
Do you, come camping to congregate in large groups? Have no idea where your children are? Have a large Bluetooth speaker? Then turn right.

Simple.

....and does the right hand turn lead them straight back to the exit road out of there ?

Just give me back my taser and a big box of batteries and I'll sort out the errant tentists.

We do sometimes hang our Hilleberg tarp on the van though.

Makes a great beach shelter too

Sounds much like any Forum gathering I've ever attended (minus the kids).

The forum gathering is sort of an example where the forum members choose to turn right (as per post above not as in their political leanings, that would be a different type of gathering altogether!), and generally they want and choose to be segregated to ensure they are able to play music, have fire pits and be merry late into the night.

Incidentally, just went to the van to get something and it still stinks of smoke!

Other than getting up at 6, this is a great idea.

Here's another annoyance, loud snoring people in tents. Should they be shot or not?

Haha yeah that's a point.

There was someone snoring on a campsite near hadrians wall last year, never heard anything like it. Had me awake all night, luckily he left the next morning.

You sure that wasn't a chainsaw?

I probably shouldn’t kick off this thread again but just seen this near our pitch at this weeks site. Gotta love some rules, not too many mind. Where would we be without rules; France, where would we be with too many rules; Germany

We go to a couple of sites with a load of rules and it makes for a very enjoyable stay if you break the rules people are asked to respect the rules then its a please leave the site if the persist in breaking them

Point of order, France has loads of rules, some un fathomable ones, it’s just that the French choose to ignore them.

Not letting a dog crap everywhere being one of the well ignored ones, that said at least they don’t put in a plastic bag and hang it on a bush.
I’m all for tents and vans mixing all without dogs.

"Keep dogs on a short lead" seems to be one that a lot of people struggle with. Im amazed they are able to even book a campsite if they cant read and understand those few words.

 

[DXX]

Short lead is one thing, personally I don’t care if ‘it’s a rescue’, if it ‘doesn’t normally do that’ or ‘do you mind him here while your eating’.
I just don’t want to walk in the 10% of dog crap that’s left behind after 90% has been picked up.

Quite right, lots of rules that only apply to us; France
