It is healthier to be mutton dressed as lamb, than mutton dressed as mutton!

Yep. The forecast is looking really good. Especially for Friday night.

I'm not going to be able to make it yet again :cry:

I hope those of you that get there manage have some excellent skies !

Fay is down there already

She has been put to the right as you go in the gate (I think where the bird in the shower used to be) - NOT near the toilets
Cars can't be left by the tents either, they must be moved to a parking area although it's nearby.

Fay would also like someone to bring her a spare towel (or similar) to soak and cover her cool box which doesn't cool any more.

Have fun chaps, the weather is looking really promising

I take it there are hook-ups in that area?

I should be down at about 6.30-7.00pm.

Just got back from holiday last night.  Planning to come down today, is there any chance of hook up or share of power for me otherwise no point in me coming.  Do you still need a towel Fay or will it be too late by the time I get there?

Carole

Mike

Carole there are plenty of spare hook-ups.

Our visitors stayed longer than expected so I won't be able to make it tonight.

But if it stays clear I'll probably try imaging at home.
