I don't know where to start

By the time Wibble and I arrived on Friday evening, Paul had already had a fight with an RAF Policeman who nearly ran over his dog. The place was brimming with complete and utter chav boy racer w@nkers with security everywhere.

The campsite was horrible, with poor facilities which the chavs made worse by yanking the pipes off the backs of the toilets and smashing the toilet roll holders.

The poor excuses for human beings were driving recklessly everywhere, doing donuts on the grass next to playing children. The constant thump of carp dance music wafted across the field accompanied by the smell of sh!te from the local sewerage works.

There was no electric hook up, despite me requesting it when placing the order. The only electric point was half way down the field and didn't work, but the security guards had a go at me (and my kids) to remove it anyway.

On Saturday evening, the trouble really started. Rival gangs were kicking off and the police had to turn up and remove 200 people. 200! A few people picked their tents up and moved onto our field. They then started arguing with each other and were themselves removed.

Some chavvy ****** passed us with a pitbull terrier that wasn't on a lead which then proceeded to attack Angela's dog. Paul grabbed it's collar and I booted it in the side to get it off. The ****** didn't even apologise but stood there all cocky as though he had done nothing wrong. So I told him to F Off and threatened to kick his head in. He saw sense and left.

My mum got up this morning and walked to the facilities. Some scroat shouted at her to get out the f**king way'. So she told him to F**k Off

I need a weekend away just to recover from it.

Do not, I repeat DO NOT, ever, even consider going to Billing Aquadrome

[expostmanpat]

Poor luv, and you have another rowdy set of ******* to contend with next weekend as well

[sms]

Well what an eventful weekend, thank you everyone for turning up and sorry that it was as bad as it was, even the morning go karting i think cancelled itself out as we all tried to get off the site fast and this site had been recommended by a fellow briskodian months ago when i was trying to find somewhere for us.

Yes there was bare knuckle fighting, kids pulling the toilets apart, ch@v's racing around, displaying etc yet all security could be bothered with was chatting up girls as the cars displayed or come tell us to put the dogs on the lead, the same lead that when the dog wasI on it got attacked and couldnt get away. I think Gilly you (or whoever kicked out at the dog as the light got knocked out) got me a good un on my arm, but beleive me even through i am an animal lover i would have more than happily killed the dog last night.

Since getting home I have had a couple hours more sleep as i stayed up all night last night in case the dog deteriorated or if there was anymore trouble and like i posted this morning there was still trouble throughout the night. but by 4.30am it had gone quiet.

We (well swmbo did as she knew i was still wound up with the way things had gone) went into reception to complain, the people in front left the site last night and booked into the local travel lodge and were getting their money from the travel lodge refunded. We were offered a free night whenever we want it (no thanks) but no refund as we had stayed on the site (not much choice when you over the drink drive limit).

They are aware of the problems and were apologetic, reminding them that brisky has about 100k members (even through not all active) plus all the people most of us know and that we wont hesitate to letting everyone know how bad it was.

Certainly a different contrast to when myself, swmbo and mini text were there a month ago, just glad my daughter wasnt there as she is quite sensitive and i think that that would have scarred her for life.

Thank you again to you all, especially Gilly for helping me get the dog off and for politely in no uncertain words telling the pitbull owner exactly what to do Also thank you to Hanah who pulled me away from security just as i was about to tell the stupid female officer that perhaps she should be on a lead.

All in all in the small knit group we were in we as a group had a wonderful time, but the outside community at biling can all go rot in hell.

The next camp is being organised by my partner at a place i mentioned last week near white horse hill, Wantage. The small family campsite is excellent and cheap (£6 per adult £3 per child) and is in a very quiet place and is well away from ch@vs, loud cr@p and performing monkeys, eh ch@vs. Those on the camp have seen the pics and i need to get organised a date and make sure it wont clash with sharkriders plans. I will sort out a drive out as there are some brilliant roads around that way to drive

Once again I feel so guilty that the weekend ended how it did, i know it wasnt my fault but i feel it really put a dampener on things when we all got to sit there and keep watching over our backs.

Thanks also to gilly (again) for the great cooking and the great expressions of concentration on your face cooking the food (followed by the nap afterwards)

[sms]

oh and as promised (and so funny now) the thread that was used for planning the meet http://briskoda.net/south-central-meets/camping-meet-feeler-june-2009-a/123714/#post1450719 did it sound the same as the event guys

[expostmanpat]

Well done Paul, you managed to more than double our membership in one swoop

Sorry it didn't quite work out as planned, from your post do I understand your pooch was injured :( Hope its not serious.

[PumpeDuse]

I am sorry you have had a bad experience at Billing, sounds like standards have dropped, it has been a over 4 years since I have been, and never a sniff of trouble, but things can change over time. Billing was suggested because they cater for car club meets. Probably another thing to do with the credit crunch, because all the ch4v scum aren't going abroad due to cost, and going camping instead. I am a keen camper, and even in Cumbria on farmers sites I have noticed undesirables camping and spoiling everybody elses enjoyment.

June Ignition Xtreme

A new Modified Car Show for 2009 right here at Billing Aquadrome.

http://www.ignitionxtreme.com/

At least they cancelled the burnout competition,

did anyone attend the miss extreme comp at the Dance, Trance & Drum n Bass Mashup?

Might explain your troubles

Although had you advertised the fact that the Furious Angels pole dancing troop where performing on the Saturday night I think more people would have made the effort :P

the event they had there we wandered through (for free) according to security it wasnt very sucessful and certainly wasnt sucessful as max power which got banned last year

[sms]

in fact just think tesco's car park in some major town on a saturday night, plus a trailer with a few flashing lights and a few market stalls, basically it.

[sinister sheep]

OMG!!!

What more is there to say, company aside it was a bloody disaster, had i not been 1/2 way to the loos when frodo was attacked it might of been me being thrown off site!! had i been there at the time that scrotes dog decided to get mine the smug little owner would be be very dead by now. my poor little doggy, i think he is more than glad to be home.

well i have to thank every one for putting up with the disater known as our camping trip. and how sorry we are that every one had to endure so much of a disaster, when previous trip was so different and relaxed, cant be sorry enough for putting any one else through this weekend, glad the little doggy was ok and didnt get got by the nasty dog, thanks gilly for superb cooking, thanks to every one who made me laugh to the point of tears at some jokes. the "kids" dare i call them that were totally pure and class! thanks for sharkrider for allowing me to drive and every one who entertained the ball mad insanity that i call frodo!

weekend of the 12th september if anyone is interested??

here is a thread i did start last week http://briskoda.net/off-topic-chit-chat/been-camping-again/149576/?highlight=uffington+camp

[expostmanpat]

Sorry Paul, we will have to pass, in the south of France that weekend :P

[sinister sheep]

My rather to the point email too the events organiser for ignition.

To whom this may concern.

I have felt the need to contact you about the show that was held in Billing Aquadrome. The event totally ruined my families and friends weekend. Although we were far enough away from the event so we were not disturbed by the loud music it self, which we would of expected at this event, what has caused up the most problems was the lack of control the event held over the people whom had come to see the event. There was numerous people openly drinking alcohol and using illegal drugs whilst in control of their cars on the roads through the camp site, which is still deemed as public highway so the same rules apply to those in the site to those who are driving off the site, and then there was 3 people in the front of cars, forgive me if I am wrong but I am in the understanding, that the front of a car was for the driver and A passenger, and letting children under 10 in control of a car! well that one beats me! then there was the speeding around the camp site, which is clearly marked around the site as 5mph at all times. which under no means was withheld.

Through the night of saturday there was riots, fighting, people threatening with weapons, the public amenities were also trashed, people throwing up all over, blocking the toilets, smashing up toilet roll holders, taking the toilet roll, smearing faeces across wall, creating unusable facilities for those of us who needed the facilities with in the time of this trouble. It is in our understanding that over 100 people who were attending this show were escorted from the site due to the level of disruption and the level of violence that occurred. WHILST the campsite does have security, last night they were stretched to limits and when we needed them we were unable to get assistance, as some ones dog attacked mine and this cause a problem where we were then camped and being threatened buy the dogs owner were unable to get the help we were in need of. Did it not come to thought to make sure that this event also came with security from your event organisers to ensure that things were able to be dealt with leaving those of us not involved in the event to be able to know that if we were in trouble we could also be able to be safe as well.

I am in total and utter shock that the event was able to get so out of control and innocent people were in fear of being attacked, and had their breaks totally ruined by lack of control, organisation and ability to realise the trouble occurring before it was out of control! My husband stayed up all throught the night, keeping a eye on our family and friends due to the trouble over spilling more and more on to the field we camped in, and was still highly active and volitile at 04:30am this morning,and him being the only driver with our family group has then had made the journey home tired, exhausted and left feeling at complete loss over our break being ruined.

I hope that your company, take my complaint into thought and take it seriously. It is totally disgusting that this has happened. You need to take your own security into thought when putting on events of this scale. and maybe book out the whole site so innocent people do not get thrown in with this total mess again!

I look forward to your answer to my complaint

Regards

Mrs Morton

[sharkrider]
