We're in, thanks Jilly. :D

Might be a thought to leave one weekend free between this and Softies, but others may prefer to go straight on to the next Meet.

We won't need hookup.
Take a torch, toilet roll, and tea bags.

For example, I have a bongo and a base tent, so technically I'm 'car and tent' although it was so cold I slept in the bongo 8). Limited EHU - about 5/6, we use splitters so keep it low. Will confirm price after I've spoken to the landlord. B&B available in the pub. See the website and book direct.

List so far:

BobUK (Ehu) (bongo and tent?)
2 Alan Sooty & Georgie (car and caravan)

13-15tj turns out tone good for us so count me in please. No leckie, no tent, possible awning.

Our friends (upto 4 more vans) are keen as well but work shifts make it hard for them to commit just yet. How is it best to play that one?

That's a shame, why was it noisy? It wasn't a weekend when we were there was it? :oops:
