Looks like the Meal is sorted then for saturday night. :D

What time are people getting down there tomorrow? I need to let the owner know the time the earliest person will be there as she wants to send a guy down to show us where to camp.

The field has got a lot of "marshy" areas apparently and she does NOT want cars driving on the grass. Also, for your own sake, you might get stuck. There is however no need to drive on the grass as gravel tracks run through the field. So, what the owner wants is for you to drive down a gravel track and leave your car on it, pitching your tent up beside your car on the grass. That way you can have your car right next to your tent but there is no need to drive onto the grass which will churn it up (no doughnuts please Chris).

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