    Fort Purbrook as previous years.

    Arrive Fri 31st Jan - Depart 2nd Feb 2014.

    Even this year with all the rain I think people had a good time and we get more people every year.

    Don't be put off by the cold/snow/rain - there is a function room we can use.

    Attractions include:
    • the now annual flint throwing competition
    • Dawson's tunnel tour
    • fraping Roger
    • Golf ball drinking game
    • Maybe the return of the Wiseman's Crappy Cocktail Casino
    • Huge amounts of other great stuff
    I think we'll preorder breakfast next year.

    All wood will be provided by Ginger's VW, chopped and ready for burning.

    Toilets, basins (some even with hot water), and water - no hookup.

    Dogs and kids welcome.

    No generators.

    £10 a night per unit - please paypal charlychoo16@gmail.com.

    Fort Purbrook, Portsdown Hill Road, Cosham, Portsmouth, PO6 1BJ.

  2. Breakfast was a disaster. but I got 2 for the price of one and Baggy got nothing because he was busy doing his makeup.

    Dont forget about the other attractions - golf ball drinking game and the fraping of Rog

    I know everyone's welcome to this TLB winter camp, but by having it on the South coast, for many people it's a long way in the middle of winter for a weekend. Yes, yes, I've read it's convenient for the organisers. Perhaps you could consider a venue more in the geographical centre of the country? Or rename it TLB Southern Winter Camp or just Winter Camp.

    Ditto TLB Summer Camp

  9. I drive 100 miles to get there.. So it's not easy for me.. and it wasn't only me that drove over two hours to get there.


    Wherever it is someone will always live closer

    i drove a 1000 mile round trip, also for most of the northern camps i have to drive several hundred miles. you cant cater for everyone, the wilmas organise plenty of outings up north and anyone else can too

  13. I'll be back. It was a good laugh. More homebrew!!
     
  14. Yep I'm down South still took me 2.5 hrs to get there, Autumn camp is more Northern and Tatton etc but they are a bit far for me.

    Could always arrange a North winter camp as well?
