3rd - 6th of May (Mayday Weekend)

We've decided not to go Stanford Hall Mayday weekend but would like to get away for a couple of nights, any suggestions? Is anyone else planning to do anything, if so what are you doing?

 

You could go to eddys/tekenders again. It's only down the road.

 

It'll be stuffed with the SSVC peeps I think.
Stanford seems like a waste of a long weekend...

 

It was the ice cream man that said you'll be back again in a few weeks, the split screen lot camp here every year & convoy up to Stanford hall! Nice chap but my icecream was getting wet so I nodded politely and shuffled back to my van!

We're considering going here www.oakfarmpark.co.uk we went for the day a couple of years back & noticed they had a field for camping & thought it would be great for the kids while we chill...

 

Were going to a campsite in folkingham

 

You are kidding?

 

Not sure what am doing yet,but one place i will be going is here http://www.tramway.co.uk/events/beetle-drive
Its a great weakend and loads for children to do. Went around 5 years ago and it was great seing all vw's drive down to main street.

 

No.

Grandkids are having a little runout there so we are joining them.

 

We went to that last year and met up with some TLBers. Nice day out. It's in September though, not the May bank holiday ...

 

So is there nothing else going on this weekend

 

we're going to wem for the weekend, here http://www.llcp.co.uk/

 

We are going to Southport - but not until the Monday, got Tuesday and Wednesday off

 

I am jealous - you have such a lot on your doorstep Ricky. There might be something similar here, but it would be a weekend of wind whipping the soil off the fens into your pint. Some of the land here is sandy and the good stuff blows away. There's a field 100m from my workshop that looks like a desert. They'll just plough some good stuff up to the surface, then that'll blow away. It's depressing. I need hills and trees.

 

Looks nice Ricky - have you been there before?

 

yes, a few weeks ago, i put a review in the shropshire area on holidays and campsites bernjb56

 

zed yeah you can knock us midlanders but theres loads of places close and i can even make the coast (barmouth/rhyl etc) just on my 100 mile limit, we are going to go to eddies again in a couple of months too just for a lazy weekend - will let you know if anyone fancies it.

 

e
Here you go mate ,lake district always cheers me up ,why not pop us with us sometime?
This could be us

 

guilty confession time - i've NEVER been to the lake district.

 

Unbelivable Ricky mate ,so easy to get to as well from Brum ,just 1 road the M6
