eeeek! POSTED ON THE WRONG LINK... my heads all over the place :lol: we'll be in s-wales hopefully still .. lol


:( We won't be able to make it now. As some of you know Archie was knocked over by a car and airlifted to Frenchlay hospital. He's broken 2 different bones in the leg and had op to put in a wire which comes out in 6 months time. We've got Archie this weekend so the other two little ones can still go away with their mum. He's doing fine now and coming out tonight :)

All to to and froing to Bristol means that we've not got the finances to get there and can't imagine it would be vey good for Archie right now anyway.

I hope you all have a fabulous time... so jealous as I wanted to go on the boat ride, but we'll definitely be there another time to do it :D

I've emailed Debs my tickets as they were paid for. If there is anyone who wants a free trip... get in there :)

Look forward to seeing all the pics next week :)

Hello - I'm new - and excited - as have just agreed price etc with owner of a Bongo that is soon to be mine! My family and I have stayed in Kennexstone when Hillend in Llangenith is full (in a tent, though) and were really happy with the site - good clean facilities, friendly owners, what more do you want :) If we have our Bongo by then (and let's face it, we should :D :D :D :D :D :D ) then we could be interested in joining you, as it would be lovely to see what others have done with their bongos to get some ideas (ours is unconverted. See, I already think of it as ours!), as long as you don't mind us having a nose in your Bongos! And we do have an early rising 18 month old and 3 year old, just to warn you :?

Hopefully, you'll have it by then :) Look forward to seeing you there. We've got a 3 year old but she won't be with us that weekend.

We have a 3 and (by then) 5 year old so don't worry! Poking around other people's Bongo's is half the fun - hopefully I won't be the only tin-top this time :D We still hope to make it (yet to book....still in Algeria....) but should be able to make it.

Sadly I can't make this one. With a second sprog on the way near then, my wife's not up for it. May be next year.

Hi,
We may be interested - I'll give a call and see if they have space.

Any other families with kids going? Ours are 7 & 10.

OK - we just booked in. They are getting short of hook ups but still have plenty of room "off grid".

If the weather's half decent the kids will want to spend most of the time on the beach with their body boards I expect.

Ours too. Isn't the site a long walk from the beach though? :?
