Thank you Bongobaz, very much appreciated. Just clicked the linky. It's says £50 squid on there :shock: That is a £5.00 more than the other site. No price for children either.

It seems they have availability for Sat 14th August as of tonights check.

I have left a message to see if I can negotiate a group rate and also to find out maximum they can take.

I'll feed back when they call. Fingers crossed and all that .

we'd be up for the camping bit -
I,ve done gorge walking - the swimming bit was fun the height related bits not for me -the woman behind me was singing onward christian soldiers as we went up - and i was grateful i figured if god was going to save her i should stick next to her and he might save me at the same time.

I could be up for white water rafting if anyone fancies an alternative.(cant believe i just said that) or perhaps a nice sedate trip on the canal boats.

You can't sleep in your Bongo? - Is that only if you have a caravan as well or you can't sleep in your Bongo at all? :?

What a bizarre rule, although Donington Park introduced a similar rule to prevent people just sleeping in Transit vans, but a van properly converted for the purpose was ok.

Hi Guys and Galls

Having looked into this as a potential meet further, we as a family feel that it could be quite an expensive weekend. So I would like to bow out of organising this one. Also I have been thick and not realised that there is another meet about to be organised at approximatley the same weekend that I proposed. #-o

I will keep looking for something with activities that is not as expensive as this one.
I have asked it be removed from the Calendar Sincere apologies for any inconvenience caused. :oops:
