Trains used to have a penalty - was it £10? - for pulling that red emergency chain when there was no emergency. Perhaps the CC should put up a notice like that next to its emergency bell.

Not doing this to be last, but I find it a bit strange the op hasn't been back with a better explanation.

I'd love to see them try and enforce that :rofl:

If they tried to implement it I'd be tempted to ring a few at 2am and ask if I can use the dump facilities just to see how the warder thinks he's going to be collecting £100 from me :rofl:

What the.....
Is 9pm late? OMG !
2AM is late
Or may be the warden has had a really bad day and was well pissed off before you rung the bell. But then nobody on fun has a bad day and it's perfect all the time. The weather has been very hot and I bet a lot of tempers have been frayed over the last few days
a lot of us worked with people and knew,no matter how long the shift, how to treat our fellow man.

It was £5 at one time!

We had a ride on the Peak Rail heritage railway a few weeks ago. I can't remember the amount but I think it was less than a fiver. I remember thinking it was ridiculously low for these days and just showed how inflation affected prices over the last 50 or 60 years :)

Let me tell you a story................

I had been on duty all day until 8pm, doing what I do in my usual friendly and helpful way, emptying bins around the site, cleaning the toilets and showers, cutting grass and hedges to keep the site looking good for the comfort of all our customers, even helping some without motor movers to pitch their vans, providing information on local walking routes, bus timetables etc. and even at the end of the day, walking around the site and delivering barrier cards to 'customers' who had 'forgotten' to return to the site office to tell us what pitch they were on, all in a day's work. At 8pm that evening everyone who had booked onto our site had arrived, the computers were closed down ready for the following busy day, the safe was all locked up and the office was secured. Now we could go off duty, prepare, cook and eat our evening meal, the main meal of our very long day. Then we washed up and got our showers before hopefully spending a couple of hours relaxing before going to bed prior to yet another long and busy day. At 9:20pm my mobile phone rang, it was my mother, very distressed, informing me that my father, who suffers with Vascular Dementia, had been rushed into hospital with a suspected stroke. They discovered he had Pneumonia along with several other infections and that he was very seriously ill. Due to his condition he was unable to eat or drink and was far too weak to undergo surgery and that they could do nothing other than to make him comfortable and let nature take its course, he was dying !! At 9:25pm, whilst trying to console my mother and get as much information as I could, the internal Emergency Bell sounded, I told my mother that I was sorry but I had to go as I had to deal with an on-site emergency. When I got to the gate of my compound I saw two people stood at the office door, I shouted across 'Can I help you' to which they responded, "I know it's not an Emergency", to which I responded "Well I hope that it is". Now you know the rest of the story, and yes perhaps I was a little brusque in my manner for which I do regret in hindsight, however, your "I know this isn't an Emergency" and my real time personal Emergency were on different levels of urgency. I know that you could not have known what was going on in my personal life and I appreciate that you were trying to be a Good Samaritan, however, rather than go onto a public website and incite the kind of hatred shown here, you could perhaps have come into the office the following morning and stated your displeasure, at which point, having been able to explain 'my dilemma' you may have had a much more understanding opinion. I have a very pleasant, helpful demeanour, I have in the last month dealt personally with two real 'Emergencies' on site, both out of hours and both requiring urgent attendance of the Ambulance Service. I have helped customers who have locked themselves out of their vehicles and I go out of my way to go that extra mile, however, in one evening you have managed to make me look like an unpleasant ogre. I hope you never have a bad day yourself !!
Sorry about your issues but these people didn't know what was happening in your life. I worked and took care of my late husband with vascular dementia for five years, not a good time. You just HAVE to compartmentalise your life

No I wouldn't use them. I could still drive round ringing the emergency bells though. (y)

Hi.
Time for all wardens of all clubs,to wear the sort of personal camera used by the police,perhaps then,all "Rudeness" real or imagined may stop......
We only have a snip of what transpired,often peoples attitude have a lot

Hi
These landlords, still have no customer skills. In my younger days,a town centre pubs landlord used to ring a bell and shout." Enough,we are closing,lets see your A***'s (Bottoms) tonight and your faces tomorrow " It scared me for life,drove me to drink.
