As I said Steve, you are more than welcome to bring your dogs providing they are (fairly) well behaved. There is plenty of room, no roads, sheep will be well away, and my 3 dogs will sort them out if they get a bit over boisterous Rolling with laughter

Oh Don't worry Mark, they are exceptionally well behaved. I dare say they can take care of themselves in the canine pecking order also from what I have seen when meeting over zealous dogs. Rolling with laughter

But of course they will obey your dogs as that is their home. Bow down ===================================

I know I have attended these trips before but it hasnt reduced my excitement that it is just round the corner.

Party monkey and I have been exchanging emails on it and have even set up a camp chair of envy competition between ourselves which can be seen on Facebook haha Embarassed

Lishlandy Thrown of choice: King Kokoda chair purchased from Brendan T'up North

Party Monkey Stool of discomfort: Cosco lounger with sun umbrella.

Defender is going in for a service tomorrow and some warranty work (standard). I keep ripping the rubber on the Fire and Ice style side steps, plus my first bit of corrosion! woohoo Big Cry ===================================

I guess it will depend on what stage folk signed up but about a month ago (email on home PC so can't check exact date at the mo) , JST had sent an email out with coords for the venue.

@Lish, the only stool of discomfort I can forsee will be related to what I may eat, not what I sit on. Mr. Green Thumbs Up A good job I did invest in the Costco specials too as this weekend just gone, PM Junior managed to bust one of our REALLY cheap and cheerful camp chairs. Jon - 110 td5 [sold]. Currently Defenderless.

Rolling with laughter Rolling with laughter Brilliant! We wont worry about hearing screams from the WC facilities then.

May i borrow your long lost hand held CB radio again? i Havent had a chance to wire my one into the new defender yet and yours was great last time. It has remained firmly in my behind-the-seat pocket since the last Wales trip Very Happy.

Mark, How far away are the 'facilities' from the camp area? Her heiness is already worried about it....as per usual. Bow down ===================================

Time wise the facilities are close.

assuming a sub 9s 100m sprint......... Shocked

A month or so ago an email did go out to those registered at the time with the location to enable pre-event route build up planning. Cheers

Sounds familiar. I told her there was a Ganges style river next to the campsite. Leak, dump, wash... Whistle Mr. Green
