So we are looking at weekend 29th nov 6thdec 13th dec It would then probably too late and have to be after xmas.
Things always get better after they are worse
So it's good to make things worse as soon as possible!

Re: midlands day meet?
any of those should be ok for us.2 adults,3 kids one dog.day meet will do us if no-one else wants to stay over.i guess stratford is about our limit for a day meet but would go further if staying over.

Re: midlands day meet?
Hi!
Sorry about introducing some confusion a few days ago - put it down to an age related weakness.
Can I suggest for a day meet now or later the following:
Snibston Discovery Park near Coalville North West of Leicester.
http://www.leics.gov.uk/museums/snibston
or
Crich Tramway Village outside Matlock
http://www.tramway.co.uk/
We would like to join in the fun almost anytime except the weekend 29th/30th November.

Hi,
We have been to Crich Many many times, but a bit too far for us on a day meet. We also have a few people with dogs to consider. So many places you can't take them.
We are leaving it a bit late now and I cant do 7th. We will however get it sorted. I,m sure.
cheers anna

hi,
thanks to `not so old`doing a great job of making enquiries about possible bongo friendly locations,it looks like it could be sunday 30th november for a day meet if anyone`s interested?somewhere around stratford/warwick or somewhere like that should be good,so if anyone can make that date/general location,it`d be great,the more the merrier.we were thinking about a stopover from the saturday,but that depends on location and who wants to do it.
please let us know.
thanks
sharon

Hi again Sharon,
You are very welcome and I am still checking,but due to the season and dogs allowed it is difficult. I will however persevere to find it. unless of course someone comes up with a better location first.If as we discussed,all else fails I think Dodwell caravan site for anyone who wants to stay over £17 for 2 people per night with electric + £1 each children over 4 tel- 01789 204957 Yes its expensive,but it's stratford! Must check that they will take just one night though. The close on 30/11/2008(Only campsite option)about 8 miles from stratford.
Sunday parking at swans nest Lane (by park and river adjacent to shakespear theatre)
Options- Lunch, Butterfly and jungle farm, riverside walking, playground for children ,picnic if in the unlikelyhood it is warm enough. shopping etc. Car parking is about £1 1hr £3 4hrs £4.50 10hrs according to web. Street map showing parking http://www.stratford-upon-avon.co.uk/soamapl.htm.
Hope some more will join us- looking forward to it and meeting you all
Cheers Anna
