If you could bring that Dave, that would be great, will check with tirty tree and a tird what his sleeping arrangements are

I'm thirty four now fat boy!

Dave / Nick, if you could bring what you've got I would be grateful. Although my tent would fit in my Ryanair hand luggage allowance I'm pretty sure the poles / pegs could be classed as weapons. I have shared tents / rooms with Paul before and based on experience I think its best everyone sleep at least 50 ft from him.

Taking advice I have booked my pitch and the man at the campsite says it is an advisable thing to do.. There was someone in the office at 7.30 last night and it only cost the phone call to do.

Any spare tents would be appreciated as was planning to sleep in the car. Presume we just bring drink and food and the bbq's are on site?

Sorry for the late ommission but I have to have 2 Extractions and try to get this abcess under control. Gutted Posted ImagePosted ImagePosted Image

Never felt pain like this Jim, The woman on the NHS Direct thingy was berating me for the amount of Painkillers I have taken, keeping Nurofen in business this week with those 200mg Capsules!

At least I cant eat, might lose some weight!
