I am dismayed at some of the recent correspondence on this topic. We have been members of the C&CC for several eyars and have never regretted it. They are a club that caters for all types of campers. I suspect that the curent direction of the club is govened by thsoe who become members of the National Committee. The only way to have the club you want is to get elected to these committees, speak your mind, and bring about the changes you seek. I have never felt the need to do this either as a camper or using our folding camper. I still regard my subscription as money well spent and will continue as a member as long as I am able.

Hi sweepy
You have not read the whole post you are repeating what at least three others members have said,and I have replied to, so I will consider your post as another waste of bandwith.
No hard feeling
All the best
Rex.
PS I also consider my subscription as well spent, and recommend the C&C Club. But this is constructive criticism on a subject of unfairness.

I would like to state that I do not understand the "class system" where tents are subordinate to other means of camping. I hereby state that tenting is the most pure form of spending time in nature with as little means possible in order to get the camper "back to basics" and learn to appreciate the little things in life as he/she is depending on him/herself far more than the average caravanner or motorhomer is.
That's also way my toes crinch in my wellies when I read all the modcons that seem to have become a absolute necessity with some tenters. To all their own, of course but one can't just plan to soak up a biut of basic nature life between "Hollyoaks", "X-Factor", "Corry" and the Wii...
But then again, that's just my humble opinion.
I read this postings on this site regularly but rarely contribute until now. I whole heartedly agree with Freebird. Myself and my 12 year old son went camping 3 times this year, all to C & C club sites. All were great and well run. We joined the C & C C after having bad experiences last year at two "recommended" privately owned commercial sites. C & CC are the best. I'll let you know when my view changes. We do not want for anything more than a grass pitch, toilets,showers and washing up facilities. We do not need EHU and apart from some absolutely necessary reasons we cannot understand why anyone else does. In these days of climate change I can't think of anything more unnatural than having a tent with an electricity supply.

Hi pceboon. So you are a camper of the old school but you do require a shower,we use a stream or river in summer even today in our old age.you also require a toilet with flush . we use our porta poty now but do prefer a toilet even a thunder box, we use a bowl with water boiled in the kettle to wash up. And even that is up to date as to what real campers do.
I would say you require as much mod cons as most, the EHU is to keep the old and very young warm,to entertain when it rain for a week solid, and keeps our food fresh and healthy.
Now out of the four mod cons the EHU is what I would say is the most essential.
All the best
Rex
PS Do agree with you that the C&C Clubs CS sites are the best
