Glad you're coming Debs, it wouldn't have been the same without you

I didn't actually see what was going on as I wanted to see how many would be in for the meet. I'll call tomorrow and see if we can get group discount and ask them the best way to go about booking in a group of us.
Debs... eeeek, we don't have pixie outfits for the boys... got fairy one for Cara
Also.. we have a friend who has a gliding club near by and we're going to ask if he can get guests in as a favour if they want to try.

Sure they will.. fairies and witches if in pink mix well together. I was wondering if Tink (Tinkerbell) could get in.. she is a fairy after all and has fairy dust sprinkles on her

We've booked in for this now. They are holding 7 further places until the end of tomorrow. They apparently are getting bookings in very quickly so were only prepared to hold the places until tomorrow.
If you call and book, if you mention the name 'Carlton' she has saved the 7 pitches near each other.
There contact number is:-
Tel: 0118 9326 444
Have to say, it wasn't cheap for us, but that could be that we are 7 all together and 3 of us classed as adults and you have to pay for camper and then extra for the children.

Out of curiosity (which shouldn't make a difference as we do want to come)
(and just to prepare myself) how much is it

I ended up paying £83 for two nights based on premium pitch, two adults and three kids. It's not cheap, but it is a nice place, nice facilities and I guess we're paying for what they say is "free" access to the country park. Have to make use of the Country Park at that price!
Hope the others will still come

Couldn't understand what she was waffling on about not being able to ride bikes in the park until it's closed - anyone know what that's all about?

Think it's can't ride bikes in the actual country park cause of the animals, but can ride around the campsite ...

I read this on the website
For safety reasons:
Only Children's bicycles with stabilisers are allowed
I also read this
Hook up points are clearly numbered and deliver
a maximum of 1.5Kw (6amps). Please ensure
that you do not exceed this.
omg and they've got a petting barn

best not go there
