That's the opposite of 'winter draws on'...

nowt we can do about the weather, we've been camping in snow the last couple of weeks, prefer that to rain though, see you in April

If you do one at the end of May, I may be able to join you - ha ha the pun!

I'll be travelling down the M6 from Scotland on Sunday 26 May (BH) - any chance of that weekend?

How's the 26th May as Tackeroo 5.5 sound?

Who's tempted?

It's the start of the half term so not sure as we may be heading down to Swanage

I need to check the calendar here as well. It's easy for us as we are lazily local

We may be able to make the meet now Hembrancho (Andrew) didn't realise the dates had changed either and said he too might try to come.

Will let you know nearer the time if we'll make it. Keeping my fingers crossed

That's great news fingers crossed!

Yeah, sorry, didn't realise the dates had changed. We have got a couple of things on that weekend also, but might be able to squeeze a brief visit in, maybe overnight on the Saturday. Will confirm closer to the time.

Cheers

Bongoless too but might make a fleeting visit on me bike.....

It's a zero facility site with no loos or power or shop etc. there's no need to book as the ranger comes round and collects the cash, I think it's £15 per night and £3 if you are day parking. I think more people camp now than turn up for the day meet. There's a link at the start of this thread that gives lots of info. You'll need a porta loo etc if you're camping or staying for most of the day. Plenty of vegetation about but lots of people as

thanks for your reply we have a luggable loo I hope this will do is there a place to empty it as I don't fancy driving home with full bucket-

There is an Elsan disposal point, and a tap. But that's all
