That one was near Aberystwyth, last September. We usually used a field up the hill off to the left, about the same height as the farmhouse in the picture. I doubt there would have been any tents left if we had been up there! 
This year we are going somewhere else

Whether it all fits in the Scoob is another matter... perhaps I should follow on in my Clio???

better late than never! 
Finally heard from Graham & Heather, unfortunately they can't make it due to having to finish off the house before baby Craft comes along

Oh yes, I'm being serious about a cake...
It's becoming a bit of tradition with me... make a cake, ice it, and see if it can survive a combination of CW's choice of roads and DaveD's driving!!!
So far I've been pretty successful!
