MAROONED!!!!!!!!!!

Torrential rain all night and most of the day,  to such an extent that we were standing in 3” of water around the MH. Our host was so sure the pitch didn’t get waterlogged and we, like fools,  believed her. There are 2 golden rules of camping never to be broken  - don't park under trees as it drips for hours after the rain has stopped and secondly never park at the bottom of a hill. We broke the latter ,- never again!

The site owner was very complacent about the fact that we were marooned, so we just had to wait until the flood subsided.

My mind was made up - MOVE PITCH ASAP!

Next day we plotted our exit strategy by walking the route the MH would take, judging the squelch factor of the ground.

Di stood at the optimal point of our route, I drove straight at her feeding revs on the engine as I picked up speed. She dived out of the way and the MH splashed through the soggy area to a high much drier high point! 

Spirit levels out, this is where we stay,  but it was quite a bit off level,  front to back and across axle. Nothing else for it, it had to be a 3 levelling block job. After a bit of messing around it was level enough,  so I coupled up to the mains electric - NOTHING,  a dead socket!  Options, 1 - move to another pitch even less level or 2- find the site owner to investigate the fault on the post.

Our illustrious site owner is not a happy person, even if you can find her, so I expected a less than joyous welcome! As it happened, I found her husband, who was even more miserable than his wife!

He reset the trip switch inside the site electric box, then pronounced that our MH was too close to the entrance and needed to move about a yard. Needless to say that was not our opinion! 

He left, we moved, Di was fuming!
