A good turnout, Gail - thanks for all your hard work on this:thumb:

Made the mistake of reading the weather forecast in the Daily Fail - after last years gales it looks like we will all be under 6 feet of snow, but one mustn't believe what we read in the press, least of all the Mail!

 

[Larby]

Morning Gail and Funsters.

Just looked at tides for the Strood. High tide is at 14:38 with a medium chance of the sea covering the causeway.
May be wise to avoid arriving around ½ hour either side of 14:38.
There may be queues and even worse, salt water !

Can I suggest if you can arrive early a visit to Cudmore Grove at the furthest point of East Mersea is worth a visit.

There is ample parking for Motorhomes with good access and it costs £2 all day. Located at CO5 8UE

Thanks xxx

Now dont go believing all you read according to the 10 day weather forecast we have 4 percent chance of rain no mention of snow

HOWEVER

We have previously had a meet in the SNOW at Mersea Island and it didnt stop anyone having a good time and enjoying themselves. If we do end up with snow I am sure we can rustle up a snow sculpture competition with a prize to the winner

Note to self - steal a wine tanker.......

We will have no negative comments about adverse weather. You must redeem yourself by stealing that wine tanker.

We are 3 miles as the crow flies from St Osyth which is the driest part of the UK. Sun cream at the ready.............................

Oh my goodness - not Jaywick, surely? I used to live in Holland-on-Sea..... the other costa geriatrica

Now live near Stoke by Nayland

We [STRIKE]are[/STRIKE] will be when at Waldegraves, 3 miles as the crow flies from St Osyth which is the driest part of the UK. Sun cream at the ready.............................

Note amendment to sentence above.
I live in Halstead, not Jaywick

 

[DuxDeluxe]

Rather mistyped that one - sigh of relief.......... Halstead is a nice place, our ex neighbour used to have the bathroom shop near the bottom of the hill.

 

[DuxDeluxe]

No link that I can see to this arrival form (whatever that is) - I'm away for the week until Friday so might not be able to complete it anyway

Fingers crossed

Hello! We're noobies - Nick and Cathy - and have just cancelled our plans for this weekend to join you all at our first meet! It's my (Cathy's) birthday on Friday, so will enjoy meeting and celebrating with you all over a few mulled wines! (and depending how many I have, I may even have a bash at the adult karaoke!)

If anyone is a fulltimer or long-termer, then we'd love to pick your brains as we have plans to escape the rat race!!!

We're booked onto Pitch 288 and have confirmed a Hog Roast dinner for us both.

See you then! x

We're meat eaters by the way, so no veggie requests from us! And I saw somewhere in this thread about completing a form, but couldn't see one (??????)

 

[DuxDeluxe]

Nick and Cathy - welcome on board (nice 'van by the way....) and looking forward to meeting with you. Don't leave the sense of humour behind - plenty of laughs and freedom to do whatever on the weekend. We had a great time last year

David, Dawn and mad Jake (with recent haircut)
