CliveH Posted May 31, 2011 Share Posted May 31, 2011 Sorry to hear that Antony - but I have had my fair share of that sort of "hell" - one reason why we went for a seasonal pitch when we found an adults only one we like. Also - having attended an Outward Bound course at the Ullswater centre - I have an abiding love for that area. I was there one January many years ago and a lot of the climbing we did was "alpine" in nature. Wonderful stunning stuff. Very sad that such an area is being trashed by some in the same way as we have experienced elswhere. Very Sad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nowtelse2do Posted May 31, 2011 Share Posted May 31, 2011 What a shame, such a lovely place. IMO the nicest lake in England and some good memories of when the two lads were younger, before our daughter arrived we would take them up Helvellyn and/or catch the boat up to Pooley Bridge and walk them back down the Eastern side of the lake, well we had to tire the little sods out somehow. :D Hope it was just a one off antony.

Guest peter Posted May 31, 2011 Share Posted May 31, 2011 Must have been a private site, as none of the clubs would allow a gypo to bring his truck on the site. Never mind all the other goings on. Are you sure you went in the right entrance and not the local councils travellers (thieves) site by mistake. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
antony1969 Posted June 1, 2011 Author Share Posted June 1, 2011 Was a private site Peter and had Mr Bond been there I am sure his Walter PPK would have been used Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LordThornber Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 Sorry you had a crap stay Antony, it would be our idea of hell. We had a similar stay on a C&CC site once and I know you shouldn't tar all of them with the same brush, but we did and have never used one again.

antony1969 Posted June 2, 2011 Author Share Posted June 2, 2011 Yes site was crap Martyn but as we all probably know the area is fantastic and we even managed to run up Helvellyn in the rain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
