I really hope we can make it, but we're going to have a very busy month. If I can get back and repacked in time ??? then 100 miles there . Stay 'til monday and then another 100 miles to Lincoln. :-k :-k Couple of days there and home again. I'm sure it would be worth it though! Only thing is , I might have to leave BBQ and marquee with one of you guys. Unless I cancel Lincoln #-o #-o We'll see!!!!!!

So it's good to make things worse as soon as possible!

I have called in my 'owed weekend' and get to come to this one alone =D> =D> .

I figured dragging the hubby and mini along when we have York the following weekend may be a much for them. Anyway, I will have had mini for half term so I will deserve a break :roll:

as regards the lack of leccy hookup,but there`s a lovely little stream that babbles its way through the camping field,and we`ve been known to keep our beer cool by leaving it in the stream :lol: or failing that,a bucket full of icy water from the tap,and we stand the beer/wine in that.are u up for this,do u think?
jamie and sharon
p.s. have your pm`s subsided now?

What a cracking idea :) i won't bother bringing any booze then, i'll fetch mine from the stream as & when required :wink: :wink: :wink: as for PMs yes they have slowed down nicely :)

Groovy. :wink:

Lidl in Ripley, DE5 3DL

Aldi in Alfreton, DE55 4JJ

Also a humongous Sainsbury's at Ripley, DE5 3QP

All only a few miles from the campsite.

As far as I know you don't need to book. :wink:
