want to make it to the event this week but not completely clear on a few things

the cost of the ticket is £20?
theres a campsite for caravans opposite? which is £10 a night?

are there any tickets left and what days are the event actually run on?

I need to be as precise as possible as im on a stupidly tight budget

fuel id guess from Carmarthen and back would be £120 or so in a defender td5 towing?

Just come.

£20 for three neets camping. Think caravan site, certainly hook up is dearer.

Bloody cheapweekends camping once you've factored juice in.

Ticket is 20 quid for your vehicle, anything you are towing and it's occupants.

If you want an electric hook up you need to pitch on the caravan site in the next field and book with them. Tell them you're with us and you'll pay a reduced rate of 10quid a night.

Tickets are still available and we will be there Fri/Sat/Sun

can one guy not pitch next door and take a 100ft extension cord with him for the tents?

Depends which way you're going. I'll be heading over Thurs evening hopefully and heading up the M5 to Worcester possibly with Fanny and could meet if you're coming on the M4 or M50. Pikey & Minty will be doing a similar route Friday morning.

Just keep an eye out on threads for groups and routes

I'll be going in convoy with Yellow90 hopefully provided me disco actually works for the trip otherwise I'll have to scrounge a lift. I've done this journey quite a few times. I know the route pretty well as I used to go to Uni in Coventry best route is take the A40 to Abergavenny cut north to the M5 via the M50, M42 then M6. 4 hours driving and just shy of 200 miles.

We'll be setting out from Pontypridd at around 6ish on Friday as SWMBO is working

Route will be similar to pauldaf/yellow as in M50, M5, M42, M6 - Will be hoping to find my big arsed Welsh flag and have the bugger flapping off the back of Drover as we do when we is on Scout camps with our group flag - just need to find the Welsh flag and chuck it on me pole.

Hmmm Yorkshire flag then, so we can wave and one can pass flasks of tea when were in a jam.

pontyslapper · May 5, 2014

SWMBO has now told me that shes aiming to finish work at 3ish. So hopefully we might be rolling a bit earlier. She's getting quite excited about it.

yellow90 · May 5, 2014
