Whilst we're still a couple of weeks away and everyone has time to order/plan things;
Thought I'd suggest the idea of walkie-talkies again - we mentioned again on the North-East meet how they'd be useful when people got broken up. Sounds like there could be a large turn-out, so they could be handy
(Fingers crossed the weather in 2 weeks is like it is in Manchester today, lovely bright sun and barely a cloud in the sky...)

you suggested this last time, sucker here was the only 1 who took them lol, does any body want to borrow mine?

You would think, but when you don't have a good sat nav that lets you upload directions at the trip it's difficult. Not to mention cruising with the top down and trying to read directions is quite difficult. All while avoiding running off the road or hitting someone else. At least if you don't have a navigator. I'll bring my radio, but I didn't really think anyone in the UK knew what that was...
quite annoyed now.
Phoned Little Acres campsite last week, and was told to ring back today, but was assured there was a lot of space.
Rang today and was told it was packed out.
Well annoyed.
EDIT: And now reserved.
There seems to be an 80yr old man that likes to answer the little acres campsite phone, and apparently he hasn't a clue, so if you get him, ask for the lady
Also, they're now pretty much booked out - there's some dogshow going on the same weekend or something..

guess that means more beer for you and me
I'm trying to book at the moment but not getting any answer :\
They do take a long time to answer....
If you tell them you're with Mr Mellor and the crazy american, she should put you near us, rather than with the dog show lot
And you may have to beg and plead for a spot....
ps - are you going up on the friday or saturday?
I think I'm just going to head up on the Sunday now for the drive. Is anyone else local to me just doing the Sunday drive? Or have I got to find my own way there?
Just to save me looking through the thread again, where and what time is the meeting point for the Sunday?

Can't answer about the times but I *may* just be heading up on the Sunday myself, all depends on if my mate makes it back from Italy in time on Friday night. Will let you know.

not a chance, you drive too fast
Careful mate - just noticed that was your post number 666 :evil: - best not have put the kibosh on the whole event!Tweed said:
I may be day-tripping on Sunday too - send a pm on Sat if you haven't got any better offers and we can work something out.Lucy said:
If any1 cant get booked in,and are planning/wanting to stay over fri/sat nt's,and can get booked somewhere else,near to hand,then do so,and we can all decide when we get there,at what campsite we want to have bbq at on sat nt.
Or,i am sure some ppl may be ok at sharing tent space,if they are on their own,and have room/want to share.
I have a roomy 2/3man tent,so dont mind sharing with 1 other person if need be/other than that beg and plead with them to squeeze u in beside aebous,etc at ltl acres,lol
Hope we get good nujmbers for drives and bbq,etc

Planning on going up on the Friday - still been unable to get anyone to answer this evening too (tried about 4 times) I'll have to give them another go in the morning :\
