Easter Weekend @ The Golden Swan
Hi Peeps,
Last year a few of us got together at The Golden Swan
http://www.thegoldenswan.co.uk/
Lovely pub with basic camping facilities but in a fabulous
spot for walks along the canal into Pewsey or the other
way to the Barge Inn @ Honeystreet, anyway I've booked
it again this year from Friday 29th March for 3 nights. There
is a toilet block with a shower, but I'm afraid there are no more
hook ups as they have been taken already . If you would
like to join us please contact the pub mentioning my name
Graham Swainston & Bongo club meet.
So far there's around 5 vehicles confirmed.
Here's a few piccys from last year, hopefully the weathers the same

Just need a green light from Mrs B, but I'll be suprised if we're not there.
Last year was fantastic.

Hi, sounds fun.
I'll check with t'other half and hope to join you.
I live in Hove now, but used to live in Market Lavington and work in Devizes, so I know the area quite well.
Never been to the Golden Swan though - looks a good pub

Re: Easter Weekend @ The Golden Swan
I am booking the Saturday and Sunday nights. I might make it Friday, but it is probably going to be too tight on time.
Don't need a hook up. Since last year I have got a new leisure battery anyway. I found the last one was dead when I got here last year and all power turned off with the Bongo. Good thing I packed a torch
It was a great weekend last time and it should be a great one again.

Re: Easter Weekend @ The Golden Swan
As long as the aliens don't abduct your cider it should be a great weekend again... Of course, I wouldn't put it past a few humans abducting some of your cider!crazy uncle gray g wrote:I can feel an alien abduction coming on

I've sent an email to the pub requesting Sunday night on my way home from Devon. Fingers crossed and looking forward to meeting up with you all again.
