TLB Summer Camp Hogs Back Brewery - B'stoke Canal Campsite - 26-28 July 2013

You would have thought, but they say they can't take more than capacity nonetheless. Looks at this rate like we'll not be coming

 

I also have a nice brew of elderflower fizz to enjoy too!

 

Looking forward to the mead! Mine went off so am looking forward to trying yours!

 

But if Charles wasn't booked in how was he planning on getting in???

 

Don't know. I suppose he'd have been relying on the possibility of space through someone else dropping out.,problem is, it's a bit far for me to drive on the chance of being able to wing it when I get there.

 

baybirmingham not that I know of I'm afraid. Think I got my wires crossed that Charles was coming.

Sorry mate what with the glorious weather these places get booked sharpish.

 

Now you're talking! I don't know how good I am at making cocktails but I can make them look pretty and I've got drinking them down to a fine art. I might make up the mobile cocktail bar in the Beetle again. It looked so pretty at Beaver Camp.

Not sure what time we'll get there but it'll probably be a couple of hours later than we plan.

 

Be warned if you added wine yeast like i did you will end up Marmitefaced
Its easy drunk and refreshing with a taste of summer but the drunkenness creeps up on you without you noticing

 

Only a few grains to speed up the fizz! It will only be 5 days old so alcohol content will be minimal.

 

That's a bit crappy but I guess if they are at capacity they are at capacity.

It will be interesting to see how a TLB meet pans out on a site at capacity.

 

Some news on stickers - they will almost definetly maybe be available at the weekend! Mind you, they are from a different supplier so will probably be completely from their Winter Camp counterpart.

 

Do you reckon it's just us lot that are making it capacity

That would be awesome

 

That's fine for us cos ours all went off with Colin and his new owner anyway!

 

Apparently it's based upon number of people, not number of vans. I have called again this morning and they have agreed to let me know if they have any cancellations.

 

That doesn't even make sense!!! Vans take up a lot more room than people, what a weird way of working it out

Fingers crossed for you.

 

It's probably insurance or facilities based.

 

it was a MASSIVE site too ... but with the school holidays starting tomorrow I'm not surprised.
there will be a few people who cancel looking at the weather forecast for the weekend.

 

Good point, dur.

Oooo may have to think about bringing the gazebo!

 

The weather looks acceptable for the Farnborough area, but of course that will change.
