I'm going to Kelling Mark.
Was going to Dymchurch if you remember - but it got cancelled.

Depends... I'm supposed to be on a hot air balloon ride if the weather holds.

Due to getting older this week I'm at home drinking beer this weekend and finishing me chicken coop.

Yeah it looks crap. Good job there is a pub on the campsite.

It certainly does look awful.  I might not bother to go all that way and all that effort packing/driving/unpacking/pitching for crap weather.

Chris, thank you for the invitation, I would say that your pub is a lot closer than the campsite bar is to our pitches! But do you have a steam railway nearby?   ;)

Carole, where is your sense of adventure  :)   Roy and I are planning to travel up to Kelling on Thursday morning, we are ignoring all weather forecasts and will make the best of it whatever the conditions.(In addition to the scope I will be packing hot water bottles, full wet weather gear and sunglasses!) It will be much more fun than going to work  :D

Hi Sue,

It is one thing getting unexpected bad weather and another going knowing it in advance, not my idea of "adventure". 
After the wind of Last April and then the horrible rain and wind at Salisbury in October I think I have had my fair share of rotten camping weather this year without adding yet another to it. 

I will watch the weather forecasts and make a decision before Thursday.
