Flat 4, eating is cheating
I have no idea regarding food etc however at the last scooby camping thing I did, folk had a choice, nip into the villiage and get summat to eat or crack out the stoves and cook in true camping stylie
Thanks for sending details to that chap Charlie
You other chaps looking for a convoy to join, could I ask that you start your own thread. It will attract more attention and you will get more replies. Welcome to the fold by the way
Right then, 5 more sleeps to go Anyone want to cry off yet

Well, now I've sourced a tent I was beginning to wonder about the food thing...especially as I've got no cooking gear. Throwaway bbqs sound good to me, unless it's raining of course.

We are up for for some outdoor adventure
We have small camping gas which we'll bring and can make some teas and coffees (for the morning hang overs )
We were also thinking of bringing some caned food and just heat it up, but can do BBQ as well.

Throw away BBQ's etc are cool, If it all goes Pete Tong, I'm think that there is a boozer nearby so you can have some crisps and Nats Charlie, do you know by chance if there are any facilities on site? I tell you what, I'll get off of my black *** and phone and find out shall I?
Hang on a mo and i'll let ya all know.

WooHoo!!!
OK, Just spoken to Francis and she say the following:
There is a pub about a mile down the road, easy staggering distance
She will cook breakfast for us if we want, in the form of butties. You can have a choice of either Bacon, Sausage, egg or any combination of the three.
BOOK YA BUTTIE WHEN YOU SIGN IN. She would like to know what you want and when in an attempt to reduce waiting times and also so she can defrost the right amount of bacon.
When you book in let her know you are part of the Subaru Crowd and she will direct you to our "Reserved" area (How posh is dat
)
Once in the posh bit, it will be a bit of a free for all as to plots and space, be considerate and try leave a space for Velryba to fall over later in the night
Anymore last minute questions?

Mikey, not so much JUST remembered, more ONLY JUST TOLD about it
I have no idea how Pen puts up with me to be honest must be something to do with...
Well, at least I told you about it and just not bother turning up
Besides, you wouldn't have any camping arrangements if I'd not sorted it out for you

Right you horrible lot
Have had a major session timing a decent route and have had to chop loads out If we are gonna get to do the NYM justice and get to the campsite early enough than we have to be on the case!
Therfore it is 10:00 for 10:30 departure from Woodhall Services! Dont be late or we will leave without you!
I know it is early for some of you, and me! But it will be worth it

btw if anyone wants to revisit the Moors after this 'preview' I can thoroughly recommend it and will be only too happy to point out the numerous highlights (it took me 3 1/2 days last year and I'm still finding more!)
