another CMHC moan

haganap said:
Arrived at a site on Friday all looking forward to a good few days away. Pulled in, parked peg on to how it should be making sure my door was facing the right way.
Set up, got my hot tub out and filled it with water from the site facilities, took me ages going back and forth with buckets. put a good chlorine dose in and gave it a few hours. Plugged it in to my van so using my electric and heated it up.

got up nice and early on Saturday morning, got me towels ready and jumped in, turned the bubbles on and the guy pitched next to me came over to moan about my dog barking?
what do people expect? I was in the hot tub? how was I suppose to deal with her barking? Nikki should have reacted but as it was 6-30 am she was still asleep.

I mean, I am live and let live but the way the guy was ranting, it was like he would have had the dog shot.

are there any dog only sites out there? places where people actually won't mind my huge Newfoundland barking?

Did you also sit up until really late swilling Fosters and talking loudly to your mates on the phone? Maybe a bit of cr*p music playing through the tinny speaker on your phone as well? Maybe it was the BBQ that tipped the guy? I've also heard folk complain about the smoke from those disposable BBQs that never light properly. There is just no pleasing some people.
 
Thoughts and prayers for the hot tub fire bucket

There isn’t a wrong way.

From CMC rules:
“b. On most pitches, outfits may be pitched nose or tail in.”
 
On a THS at present and there is a van not far from us, (just far enough luckily) that has a number of dogs that bark, one starts they all start and nobody tells them to quiet!
I say a number, we have seen 2 but there are reports that there are at least 5!!!

In an earlier life I lived with a kennel maid in a beautiful location. They bred Newfies and we had 3, never heard em barking, just slobbering, drooling, silly gorgeous dogs, we love em.

Used to take the Newfie and 2 giant Irish wolfhounds in the back of my vauxhall carlton estate, I reckoned on around 25 stone of pure dogs in the boot 👍🏻
 
We are currently on an Aire in Portugal and about 2.30am this morning one of the neighbours came banging on the door, MrsT was fast asleep but luckily I was still up practicing on my Trombone :roflmto:
 
Perhaps next time it would be a good idea to have the dog in the hot tub with you?

I don’t need a clock for 7am, 7 days a week…….the neighbours let their two barking dogs out for a wee. :censored:
 
Was the ‘hot tub’ delivered specially or was it just lying around on the pitch prior to arrival? Any black bags air beds floating around in there keeping you company?

Just got back from Old Oaks, near Glastonbury.
What a wonderful dog friendly site. Almost every unit had at least one dog.
Two enclosed dog walks, both can be offleaded.
My three loved it. Here's a very happy Bernese just to prove it.

Now you're just giving him ideas for his next wsind up by saying he puts it on a trailer and keeps it filled but it causes a few problems if he takes roundabouts too fast.

Many years ago on the forum I posted about nikki taking a shower on the Brussels ring road with the waste open to ensure we kept the grey tank empty for weight issues. I said when I hit the brakes, nikki grabbed the door and it broke. Where can I get a new door...

The replies were hilarious, some suggested I should be locked up, one suggested a motorcyclist could be seriously hurt by sliding on the public hair and soap discharged by leaving the grey open.
But
Good old John Cross motorhomes may he RIp immediately found me a new door in his stock room !!

I think we all need a reminder to lighten things up now and then..
But I suppose taking my hot tub on a trailer might negate the need fill it up each time. I wonder if I could heat it via the 12v whilst towing?
 
You may jest Paul but a few/lot of years ago I was at a British Super Bike meet on the Sunday night, walking round the pits and all the RV’s there was Scott Smart in a steaming blow up hot tub with glass of bubbles and a couple of girls👍

First things first…..do you have the weight capacity to carry a full hot tub? Then, you’ll need baffles to stop it slopping about….. 🤷‍♂️ :ROFLMAO:

As a friend of mine said one day, would you believe it, my neighbours were banging on the door at 3am, it just as well i was still up playing the drums.
 
This has to be a wind-up. Who the hell takes a hot tub on holiday in their MH? ( not to mention a dog!)
