Re: upwood 2012 xmas.
Home safe and half unpacked. Cheers Dave for another fab weekend We're knackered as per but it's well worth it. Nice to be back in the saddle so to speak and see everyone again. I'm looking forward to seeing some pics - none from us as the camera stayed at home
I've already been checking out Hill of Oaks for availability - looks like the 10th and 11th May could work. They've put the prices up though £24 per night. I've had a look at Fallbarrow Park - that's on the lake side too and thats the same price. Let me know if you think its a bit steep. Cheers for now

Re: upwood 2012 xmas.
thanks to all for a fab weekend,Dave for organisig, Mike for sorting my tyres lovely smooth journey home.
My poor bongo looks all sparse and empty now all camping gear decamped and stored away for winter except cooker kettle and mug -so i thought i would treat her to a wash and very useful pound pressie astonish window cleaner must do what it says on the tin my neighbour was suitably astonished when she arrived home to find me parked in her place cleaning windows in fact i,m astonished too -me cleaning windows.
back to the drudge tomorow but plenty of happy memories from the weekend to keep me going until the next meet.
Di £24 sounds a lot but not when you think in proportion how many £££££ s that went behind the bar so i could bring my own cheap plonk to make up for it

Re: upwood 2012 xmas.
What a great weekend, thanks Dave. Karen, I'm astonished, all that cleaning, what's got into you girl? You'd already done the hub caps
I did find part of the weekend a bit " cheesey" though. Tucking into a bit of Harrogate Blue at the mo, hows the hot cheese Pete?
Pics to follow.

Re: upwood 2012 xmas.
Really sorry I never made it Dave and Co. Had the plasterer in and its looking bad as the cracks he covered seem to be visible as the plaster dries
However,another reason I couldnt make it, is we have an addition to the family who Ive had to look after......hes a little Ewok,Chewbaccas great grandson,who will be my camping buddy when hes a bit bigger......photos soon.
Glad everyone had a great time,looking forward to the pics
