I haven't done anything yet :shock: , been busy with work :evil:

Nope, never took it out of the box. But, the salesperson said this tent was super easy to set up; even in windy conditions...

Just looking at the weather forecast and Friday night is forecast as wet and Saturday dry, maybe we need to change the BBQ night?

what sort of time are people going to be eating tomorrow evening?

I know we're arriving later than most and know that there's no way my kids would be waiting til early evening for their dinner!

We're toying with not cooking anything as ours will probably be starving by the time we arrive (depending on traffic) so wondered if anyone can tell us if there is a chip shop or similar around that we could get a quick fix from?

Hehehe! We've got the roofbox on, gonna pack it tonight and then I'll finish off whilst Henry is at school tomorrow - CAN'T WAIT!!! :cool:

There is a chip shop / pizza place on site :yes:

I think we will have to look at the weather on the night and if it looks bad then put the BBQ back to the saturday,

Or would the general consensus be to make the BBQ saturday night :tune:

Come and join our CAMPOUT

Update




Friday night is BBQ night weather permitting, but may well be moved to Saturday night if the weather is bad and there should be enough space between pitches 76,78 and 80 for us all to sit down and observe Waynes BBQing skills (i want to see all those bright coloured bucket barbies on the go) :cool:
As everyone cooks different things at a different pace we decided everyone should cook there own but it was suggested that people bring a bowl for the table (eg i am bringing a bowl of pasta salad)so it is up to you




On the saturday i am going to be doing a bit of fishing (haven't been this year yet), i will be bringing a couple of small rods so if any of the kids want a go i will set them up and they can have a go. :yes:
