Kevin has asked me why the previous owner is featured on my blog when there is a new owner of the park and why should I worry about what happens in the future.
The reason the past treachery is related is to warn prospective customers of the pitfalls of signing agreements which are unfair.When a caravan owner is faced with being robbed of large sums of money it is hard to come to terms with the fact that it is not illegal.When this robbery happens to a vulnerable pensioner on a fixed income it is impossible to ever recover from the attack financially.It is not likely to be forgotten in those circumstances.If you are younger and earning money you will be less likely to worry.How would you feel if it happened to you or your wife's parents or grandparents ?These disputes are being repeated all over the UK and there are always many in progress at any one time.Each individual victim feels isolated but there are numerous reports of victimisation but nothing changes.Parliament was persuaded that the caravan industry was responsible enough to police itself and that legislation was not needed.How wrong has that turned out ?
Perhaps you saw the TV programme a few months ago about the pensioner who was trying to sell her park home.Every time she had an offer the park owner told the buyer that it was in a bad condition.She had a surveyors report proving that it was perfect.Of course the park owner wanted to make more money by selling a new unit on the pitch.
Another fine example of a responsible park owner who could police himself !
Anyway,Kevin, please do not worry as long as you are OK thats all that matters.

If you are really concerned about everyone on every other park in the country, why are you using Binton Bridges - it seems very unfair on the present owners. What is your grudge with them? They have done nothing to you.
sorry but i have to side with kevin, it seems as you have a problem with the past owners of the site and are now causing irreparable damage to the new owners and what they are trying to achieve.
