Tough pitch ups!

[Dustydog]

It’s been a long time since I have used two levelling planks and 7 blocks to raise the front steadies and J W. This is a FSP at Honeybridge Dial Post Sussex. A couple of nights at Cousins post Covid bash. Took three wind ups of JW and steadies to achieve this height!

At least it will be a well draining pitch. 😁

Did you need a step ladder to enter and leave the van! Well done for getting it level. Hate pitches that are so sloping. Our van has rear grey water drain outlets; so especially difficult.

Mel, The O/S was two boards out of whack. The rear end where the axles are was ok but then going forward it dropped away dramatically. TBH , not acceptable today but hey ho serves the purpose for us. Just a reminder of what we grew up with !

 

[Thingy]

And you didnt tell em to stick that pitch where the sun dont shine. I would have.

 

[Dustydog]

Needs must Thingy. The position was fine. All the pitches here slope!

 

[Gagakev]

Plenty of elbow grease before you left DD, nice and shiny van!!
And still proud to show the world your original Woosie plaque
in the front window.

 

[Thingy]

DD, I have to say that is really not my idea of a pitch. I am sure its very nice there, but I expect a reasonably level pitch for my money.

 

[Gafferbill]

.......we're behind the times here in Sussex!

Didn't the site provide you with a spade and pickaxe so you could do some levelling?

 

[Thingy]

I think a JCB would be more appropriate.

 

[JezzerB]

Wow stilts come to mind. You won't flood. Impressive.

 

[Beachball]

In Lincolnshire we are on a flat hardstanding service pitch and Astro Turf i bet it nice view enjoy DD

Here for my cousins bash so ok for the weekend. Not one I will return to but it does have a licensed cafe and decent facilities on site. Very quiet.

 

[Thingy]

Very quiet.

It will be, all the others have rolled away

 

[Raywood]

Long time since I had anything like that to do but still have the blocks.

Had to go to a slightly lower height at Wallinford a few years ago with, The Woosies, the motor mover kept slipping on one tyre, to get level laterally, so had to adjust that, got that sorted, then blocks under the JW, , and then to top off the pitching up, I put the awning up inside out.
I was pitched way too close to Dusty Dog, thankfully the local pub was 15 minutes away, for a much needed beer.

 

[Thingy]

Just re-checked Upper Hurst Farm, way this is going you have probably booked us onto an Alp.

That what i am doing having a lager just manage to get the new awning up but it looks great for our first attempt

I didn't realise you had chossen my pitch, It would have been better if Harry , the dog had not stolen the sandwich from the folk by the Thames.
A great mini Woosie fest, Thanks to Gafferbills suggestion. . A good week.

Looking at those photo remind me off a site and it was sloping where the site owner lend me some blocks because my jockey wheel and steadies was the nearly the same height as yours DD i was pleased when we were level again

 

[Dustydog]

BB , My JW was smoking😉
