Not too deep this time but a bit wet all the same and a shame for the staff as there will be cleaning up to do.

You can still get into the site but not via Gravel hill that we usually use so you have to go the long way around (only a mile) but you have to walk that way as well, might be back down tomorrow 👍

We should have been there this week. Were phoned on Thursday morning to explain so we had to look elsewhere. It’s the 3rd time in 4 years this has happened to us, always same week in October. Love the site and always helpful. Will try next year.

Shame was looking at a mini meet there this weekend to do a bit of fishing ourselves but decided with the biblical rains we had last week it would have been a no go . They do have some fantastic volunteers to help with clear ups and their charity shops are still collecting stuff for sale which we donate to regularly

We maybe looking at doing meet ups there in the future to .. 😉

So Martin, an impromptu water meet, all you need is Lenny with his paddle board. We had to divert away, ended up on the Morris leisure site by the park and ride. Always have good times there and the staff are excellent. Been to some of the best Funster meets there

Bit of a long trek, currently sitting in a beach bar in Portugal.
A pic of Mi is easier on the eyes than me.
