How about here?

We are easy, looks a clean enough site.

However we will go with the majority

 

whoo hoo... welcome aboard bekyip, BJM, jlo.

You don't have to commit yourselves right now, baybirmingham. We can leave it open and book an extra camping pitch just in case?

Don't need to be that near to Blackpool Congi and we have a few sites book marked that are much cheaper than the £24 one.

We haven't decided on the campsite yet as we needed rough numbers before we contacted them... didn't have any idea at all that so many of you lovely folks would be joining us camping

I'm thinking cheap...with toilets/showers, elecky hookups, hardstanding in case it's a bit muddy.
Will have a quick email of campsites now and check for availability, then let you all know...so watch this space me darlings

 

oooooooooh defo lecky hook up please
dont usually do camping that late on in the year so i will need me heater!!

 

Think I'll need to purchase a heater hehe x

 

Trying to twist Fran's arm that camping in October is a good idea.

Still not slept in my camper this year yet. :-[

 

oh no!! thats wot having a camper is all about

If you want to use your large awning it's an extra £2 per night, or a small awning/toilet tent is an extra £1 a night.

Linda, the owner is happy for us to put up gazebos to sit under as long as we aren't too rowdy We will pay for the communal gazebos

Who will bring a gazebo then? we haven't got one!

We can probably borrow an "event shelter" if you like. It's got no sides though; looks much like this...


(That's not us in the picture, obviously. And I boldly predict that it won't be nearly so warm and sunny at Wilma's party.)
