Non electric pitches are £11 per night instead of £14, so their booking form states.
If you get cold at night Crazy's got Scrumpy + I've got JD ( only for Bongo Meets

)
that'll keep anyone warm or so pist they think the're warm
Looking more like a real Hoot

, not to be missed

I'm hoping that given the time of year it won't be too busy and I can decide near to the time. It's not far from me and I'd love to come and join you, if only for the scrumpy! Does sound like fun though. I'll see.

Do you have to be a member of the Caravan Club? It seems to say that on the website.

I went the last 2 years & I wasn't a CC member, there are a few CL pitches in the shrubbery, that may be what's confusing the issue?

As Kirsty has said there is an area for CC members but the main site is open to all, feel free to join us
Also joining us will be Tony and Pam who a few of you met at the Bridport meet,
more the merrier come on down, just book direct with the camp and mention the Bongo club

Hope you find it warmer than we did last weekend:
It got down to -5.4 outside and -2.4 inside the van overnight

Had a good evening in the Kicking Donkey, though
Not sure this duck was too impressed. The lake was completely frozen over:

Sad news to hear about the Tough Northerners campsite and it's problems with the fire damage,
but remember if you dont fancy camping without a hook up this early in the season,
there's no need to miss out on your planned weekend away,
take a look at the Brokerswood link as this is still happening, and everyone is more than welcome
Just book direct with the camp, mentioning the magic word BONGO

Sorry looking at the link Paul put up I dont think its working try this

Shouldn't be. Give the site a call as Crazy says and get them to add you to the Bongo List.
Looking forward to seeing you there

Just looked at the Tough Northerners thread ('cos were booked there).
The fire only seems to have affected the hookups, and the landlord has offered free camping, to those on the original list, if we still want to go.
As well as being tough I think one or two know a good deal when they see it. (Tight) Us included, we'll be up north 'cos we booked before this one was arranged.
Love Brokerswood, have a great time.

Hey no problem Bob, have a great time,
I was just giving options to the less hardy peeps who would still like a weekend away,
but with a few home comforts just like Old Crazy
Once again have a lovely weekend we'll catch up at another meet
