TOILET BLOCK CLEANING

[BOING]

why oh why does the caravan club always choose to close there toilet blocks between 10am and 12.30 pm.are we simply unable to have a lie in on our holidays.

would we all not prefer a time of say 2pm until 4pm when most people are off site.

your thoughts please,thank you

The wardens have enough work to do as it is, and closing the blocks between 10 and 12 ish isnt that much of a problem, and if it is not open when we would like it,we use the vans facilities until it is open again.

I suppose that the new arrivals will be rolling in from 12 noon and the wardens will have to be ready to get them booked in. Plus the new arrivals are likely to need the loo before they have set up their own in the caravan.

It's all down to balance. while I still wake at 6am (being a shift worker) she who shall be obeyed prefers 10am. Realistically all those splashing in the bird bath (toilet block)between 6am and 10 am are then going to get the facility pretty dirty and the floor quite wet, which then present's a health and safety risk. Not forgetting that when you arrive on site from mid-day onwards the first impression counts and that usually means nicely clipped grass and a splotless toilet block.

So unfortunately the warden and his team are often running round like the preverbial and consequently have to choose a timing plan that covers 95% of general demand.

Now me being a process technician (posh for trouble shooter and problem solver, if I'd audited the frequencey of use I'd probably of found that rush hour is 7-30 to 9am, with a steady ramp up of people visiting and then a tail off to 10am, when the dust busters jump in.

I personally tend to either want to be first for a shower or leave it to the evening so the a sweaty hiker isn't hiked out to the awning at bed time. Or even worse trampled by the stampeed of cavemen at rush hour.

Realistically though, I just chill have a bud and relax,leave the mobile and laptop behind and use the sun dial for my alarm clock.

Cheers.

It is a job that needs an awful lot of patience. At least give them the right to choose when they do it. AND if any Warden is a member. Thanks for helping to make my holiday.

It doesn't matter what time they clean, there will always be someone inconvenienced.

Brown Moor, the CC site in Hawes has a seperate Shower/WC for use when cleaning is taking place, for those that can't wait.

Shower/WC blocks are heavily used from 7-10am, each morning. During that time supplies run out and the facilities get dirty because some caravanners think it's the wardens job to clean up after them.

If they were cleaned during the afternoon, the facilities would remain dirty or unusable for 4 hours.

In any case, the wardens have to mow the grass every afternoon to wake up any caravanners having an afternoon nap - the wardens can't win can they?
