October Unofficial THREAD 2

[Nige]

Sorry about the new thread, the old one was getting a bit long & old (for us Microspas users)

Can anyone tell us what is happening (I Know the dates this time!!) & when? Any kind of schedule (for
want of a better word!) etc? What facilities does the camp site have? 230Vac etc?

Etc etc? It's our first time you know!

We're gonna bring plenty of ale & a barbie, an awning for the caravan & (possibly) a big feck off Landie!

Can we have a definitive list of who's attending & what they drive in photo form (the wife doesn't know
what a purple throbbing V8 is!!)

The off road place has a little shower block and toilet facilities. It
isn't a "campsite" you''ll find advertised as such, the camping is a
service K-Quads have just added for their customers.

No site AC power , unless you bring your own.
> Can we have a definitive list of who's attending

No, because my beloved has my laptop with her, while she is working in
the USA this week, as a ruse to encourage me to rebuild the big boxen at
home, which is now done so I can post again. When she gets back, I'll
email you a list - we're up to about 16 vehicles, with their attendants,
so at least 30 folks I should think. Its strongly 101 guys, but there
are a few others.

There is no firm schedule yet. I think I will try and get down early
Friday afternoon.

Friday afternoon-evening: arrive.

Saturday - play on site. Non-players can get into Carmarthen or
Pembrokeshire very easily. Minio-cinema for rugrats, "beer tent" space
made available.

Sunday - Scenic drive to Sunday Lunch (route and menu when available)
More play if desired.

Go home.

I'd consider forgetting the Awning for such a short stay given it's not an
easy site to get to (logistically from up norf), and I'm guessing you
probably haven't done the awning before as it's borrowed and no doubt be
dark when you land.

If fact...forget I said that... but I insist that I should be bladdered
before you start putting it up ;0) (fellow awning sufferer!)

As for vehicle piccys ... we won't be in this...

or this...

You needn't bring the actual barbie apparatus, unless you want to - I've
plans to bring mine, which has a 3 sq.ft. cooking area - ought to be enough.

Actually, saying that, will we have vegetarians? In that case, a second
veggie-only barbie is a nice idea.

must lay in supplies of charcoal though, before they decide it's winter and
stop selling it.

Bring stuff to put ON the barbie, now that would be a good plan.

toasting them!

OOOP NORF?? I was brung up in Bradfords u know innit? Lee, i have never even seen an awning, it's just a

Did anyone mention drinking? NOW we are talking!!

be a tad cold, but I'm hardened to it!

I love meeting new folk, I do it for a job (as you do, but in differing circumstances!!)

Lets have a good old giggle & I need tuition ojn off-roading from all of you chaps!
