Quantock New Year Meet

Post by the janner vanner » Wed Dec 22, 2010 10:06 pm

I have just been looking at the long range weather forecast and it looks as if we are going to have our bash, as from Tuesday on the temp is on the way up and the big freeze is over, so see yea all there.
Don't forget to bring with you logs or fire wood for the brazier, spuds to bake on the brazier, extra food for the New Years Eve bash and your own booze.
Lets make it one to remember.

If it's the same as are's, 1 switch for 12 volt, turn that on when on the move. 1switch for 240volt, turn that on when you get to site and plug in. There's a round dail for temp. All the other dail's are for gas, if you have no electric. Hope this help's :wink:

We'll be there, not arriving till New Year Eve I'm afraid as we moved house on the 23rd Dec and are still trying to find stuff in the removals boxes.
Karen (aka BurnhamBunch) is doing a curry and rice to bring along for New Year Eve, better bring extra chillies if you like it really hot. :shock:
See you all there. :D

Finally the snows going at crowcombe, bad news is it's raining.
There is a really good farm shop in the trading estate by the railway station in bishops lydeard if you want to get some food, the quiche is really good , tasty and the portions are massive.
If you want any more info about the area just ask.

Looking forward to seeing everyone tomorrow. I've bought the logs for Dorothy and will buy the quiche tomorrow morning when I do my food shopping.

Bongo hoovered but still dirty. Will I have time to wash it? Brrrr! It's a bit cold for that!

Bongo packed with everyone except bedding, clothes and food.

Washing dog's bed today :roll:

Had a good day shopping in Go Outdoors on Boxing Day morning: got about £200 worth of stuff for £100. Made myself put loads back on the shelf!

Still recovering from the lurgi, not sure when/if I'll make it up there, woudn't want to give anyone what I've just been through the last couple of days =; apart from the fact I'm still feeling pretty ropey. Maybe see you in a couple of days [-o<
