The part I call my pitch was the part by the towing hitch where I was standing with the dog.....

I've never really understood the etiquette behind "walking on someone else's pitch"!

In May I was on a site with a side gate which gave access to a footpath, but it simply wasn't possible to get to/from it without walking across someone else's pitch - the site owners had left no gap.

So what to do? On the basis that the one thing worse than walking across someone's pitch is to gawp in their van while doing so, it was always "head down and no eye contact" for me.

I must admit my wife is a serial gawper and looks at what other people have as a layout and looks for ideas. Also looks how other people are spending their leisure, waves and smiles and makes conversation. From the hundreds of times we have been away its only been a couple of people made a nasty remark. The only time I have been heads down no eye contact is when its chucking it down and I am going for a shower etc (which has been most of this year).
