... i was told to drive around and pitch up on any empty pitch. this we did after unhooking the car from the motorhome, i was just reversing upto the pitch number a woman came screaming that it was her pitch ...

An Off Topic steer here..but we had something similar, a few years back.

We were booking in/paying up at reception and a couple of car/caravans combos pulled  behind us.

The blokes came in to settle up and I noticed one "missus" went on ahead to save "their" pitch..

Anyway, booking in completed, we got back into our van, trundled around the site, went to swing to reverse onto a pitch, to have this woman appear out of a gap in the hedge, waving her arms, shouting "Oh hello!..we're on that pitch"...

Now, if I hadn't have recognised her from reception and being from a van that was behind us, I would've quite happily just pulled onto another pitch...but, petty as it may seem, I wasn't having someone shouting which one was "their" pitch (seemingly based on nothing more than, she was walking  towards it first?!)and especially when their van was still parked at reception, with hubby still booking in!..

She was none to pleased when I pointed out the above...

(..even though we had the pitch, she was still adamant that they were doing nowt wrong by her acting as some sort of forward scouting party and "saving" their  pitch, before their van was fully on site..it seemed it was just , "..what we always do.." )
