Hi Gail, its a bit early for us to say we can come yet. We will keep an eye on the thread and as soon as we can commit we will.

Regards from us three xxx

 

[ourcampersbeentrashed]

Plenty of pitches available just the statics are booking quickly xxxx I have 20 pitches saved for funsters

 

[ourcampersbeentrashed]

Just to let everyone know that I am unable to change the dates on my birthday bash

So if anyone doesnt fancy travelling all the way to the Motorhome Show at Newbury which is the same weekend, you are very welcome to join me.

 

[movan]

Hi Gail, I would love to come but because of my circumstances can't say I will .. and I don't want to take up any of the spaces and then let you down. If it is applicable nearer the time I will ask if there is room....... HOWEVER, I hope you will have a wonderful time there .. talk soon. x

 

[martyn]

Hi Gail,will phone tomorrow to book.Hopefully we won't have any health issues this time.Eileen is still not 100% better,but should be mended by the time this meet comes round,otherwise i'll bring me toolkit and fix her myself.:thumb:

Oooooh

Thank you Waldegraves :thumb::thumb::thumb:

I have just had a telephone call from Waldegraves, they have allocated all their brand new hard standing pitches for my birthday bash. I will be posting the new pitch numbers soon

and.................

Will be putting up a marquee for us, so that if the weather is poorly we have somewhere to meet.

The hardstanding is near the fishing lake and there is a toilet block, with indoor washing up and showers very nearby.

Thank you so much. What a thoughtful gesture.

AND............

pitches remain at £16 per night including dogs or £80 friday to friday

What a result :thumb::thumb::thumb::thumb::thumb:

 

[Philcott]

Well done Gail!

I am waiting on dates from my sister who is travelling over from South Africa next year, before I book anything! So far she's been coming in June, July, August and now maybe April or May!

I enjoyed Waldegraves and hard standing will be such a bonus (was quite pleased with the fact that I got off the other week without having to be pushed or pulled! )

Really pleased for you!

 

[ukbill]

no problem Martyn, we can bring an extra mobility scooter or you can share mine, the distance is nearly the same from the pitches we were on at winter and its in a reasonably straight line too xxxx
