We're currently at Oxford C&CC site, visiting family.
During the winter, the outdated facilities block is being demolished, and a new block being constructed, together with a number of motorhome hardstandings, and a dedicated motorhome service point.
Talking to the wardens, they're going to have a closedown party on the 29th of October. The site closes at 12pm (midday) on the 30th October, and is reopening sometime in February 2010. Anyone else fancy joining in? We're booked in from the 27th October.
Apparently, it's been scheduled and cancelled twice, due to local problems with planning and such. It's definitely going ahead now. And yes, although the wardens do their best, and they're very clean, the block looks very tired.
Thanks for the info Gerald. I thought it had already closed. Can't make the party, but it gives us the chance to get a weekend in before closure.
Gerry
Are United at home that weekend? Will have to check the fixture list

As far as I know, the only motorhoming Oxford United supporter in Bognor.
Gerald : I'll put it in my planner - the 2 days we were at the C&CC last week on our way home it rained very heavily and our experience of Oxford was limited to standing in the covered market watching the various stalls start to flood.
We had mixed weather there - we just got our awning tent down yesterday before the heavens opened, with hail bouncing off our roof. We also had some lovely sunny weather too.
Mike - Oxford are playing Altrincham at home on Saturday the 31st
I have booked us in GeraldandAnnie. Looking forward to seeing you and your lovely dog there Hopefully Gypsy will be recovered and able to walk a bit further than of late
I hope they are putting in a MH emptying point - we were there a couple of years ago and the block was sad then but no MH emptying point caused problems for a lot of people! The wardens were trying their best but it was an uphill battle! They were even lending out wheeled wastemaster type units so that MH owners could empty their grey water!
The cycle route from the site into Oxford or up the river or canal is superb - it is certainly a city for bikes as the bike parks show near the main facilities like the railway station!
Hope the brush up works well - it is long overdue and the provision of hardstandings will get round the problems that we (and others) encountered when we were there in a very wet period - the pitches often have small lips up onto the roadways - many people were spinning and digging in on those sudden rises!
