Mad as a March Hare meet 3 - 5 March
The Mad as a March Hare meet at The Golden Swan, Wilcot, near Pewsey, Wilts. The dates are 3-5 March. Friday to Monday.
Pub has up to 10 ehu now and Dave will charge us £6 per person per night plus £2.50 per night ehu. Maximum 10 vans allowed, 'vans' being big ones/caravans. We can have more than 10 by having a "car" and a tent, there's no requirement to sleep in the tent, so a small pup tent will suffice for appearances. Please be prepared to bring a tent.
I'll keep the camping list up together but you'll be responsible to pay Dave in the pub.

Well done Jilly.
Won't vote as we are available all 3 dates so don't want to swing it and affect others, but this is one of our favourites.

Defo interested. Thanks for organising Jilly. Think probably the first weekend in March would be best for me but will confirm asap.

Re: Mad as a March Hare meet
First two weekends are definitely the most popular so far.

Re: Mad as a March Hare meet 3 - 5 March
Hi Jilly, Do we have to let someone know if we want EHU? I see there are now 10 and maximum is 10 vans so guessing we don't but thought I should check and not take it for granted. Caz x
