Do they offer free delivery within a 350 mile radius?

Anyway - Who is camping at Tackeroo on Saturday? I don't mean those swanning off to a proper site some miles away, who is actually wild-camping - Just the B*Witched Blingo squadron?

Thanks for the Maps Muz. Ady has been sat with me today trying to look at the best way in to spookyville.

Banging my head against the wall with Multimap.
If we don't appear on the Actual Carpark, will you please come look for me.

I may be very, very lost.

I'm not sure if that's one of the best things I've seen on the internet for a while or if it's just the worse

It's the best way to look and help make up your mind on what you want. Last year we had a couple of visitors who turned up to do just that. Mind you, we can't tell you all the club rules and secret signs until you're a member
Look forward to seeing you there.

I think its a step in the right direction for anyone wishing to make the most of what they have.
Thats what most of us try to achieve anyway.

It's the initiation ceremony that you need to be worried about

Graham your going to frighten them to death

if anyone wants to come with Bongo or Bongoless there welcome to come & look at converted or un converted examples (as mine is) & see which will suit there needs & you might get a cuppa as well (hope me & christine do)
The initiation ceremony will take place at midnight

I'm interested in getting an unconverted bongo in the next few months so this is a great opportunity to talk to people
I shall run away before midnight

be warned, they give you a specific time simply to lull you into a false sense of security, so you can relax knowing nothing is going to happen until that point... and then they pounce while you look unsuspectingly around someone's van...
oh, and it isn't a secret handshake, it's a secret wave
see you sunday
p.s. sometimes we struggle with mobile signals around cannock chase, if you get lost follow signs for one of the visitor centres and ask for directions from there
