Yes, we'll have a hook-up please, Jules.

 

[saratogagirl]

I forgot to ask Tam and Kev, do you want one ?

 

[saratogagirl]

Our tent!

We also have a small 3 man tent if anyone wants to borrow it (we're closet campers, really).

Deb (still in garden, still logged on as Matt )

that is well nice Deb, it looks nice and high, we also have a dome tent if anyone wants to borrow, its not very big, but if anyone wants it, you are welcome

Ian has checked the seaweed and the pine cones and says that the weather is going to be just like this, possibly even hotter, maybe we should get some paddling pools LOL

Jules

I am assuming we would need an electric hook up for electric - is that right?

I will ask my tent lender lady tomorrow if she has a spare on we can borrow - if so we will probably go for electric.

Tam, yes you would need a lead, hopefully she will have one she can lend you, let me know and I will phone Gilestone to book another electric site

 

[Boss Hogg]

I assume that the electrical hook up's have a three pin plug - round pins as opposed to normal ones? Hope so as that is what our cable is!

 

[saratogagirl]

checked with Ian and thats right Matt, you have the right one

 

[saratogagirl]

Tam, remember the famous list last year, do we all get to have a look this year ?

Excellent, just need to remember to pack the washing machine and dishwasher now - and of course the hair dryer for yours truly!

Good news about being able to chuck logs on a bbq off the ground as our portable one has legs. Did look at a the stoves today, but am sticking with the old fashioned way!

 

[Boss Hogg]

Oh we also got two free flasks today with our tent purchase. Apparently they'll keep things cold for 24hrs or so - I wonder....

if we have two going with the logs that will be great, we will have the two little stoves again for our bacons and kettles so we should be sorted

what you going to put in there then, pepsi or fanta I bet

 

[Chilly]

We don't need a hook up Jules. We've got an extra tent as well if anyone wants to use that instead of sleeping in the party tent. We bought a new tent recently and this will be its first outing, we haven't even put it up yet as we don't have a garden!

 

[Boss Hogg]

Actually, a nice refreshing mineral water I thought!

 

[wilma-bride]

Jules and Deb, if you both have spare tents, would the two of them be enough to accommodate the 5 of us. If so, then I believe we may be able to join you, if only for two nights (probably Fri and Sat)

 

[saratogagirl]

Great news Joh, to be honest it is so long since we used the tent that neither of us can remember how big it is, I think it was advertised as a three man, it was fine for just Ian and I when we used to use it, the only reason we got a new one is that we started to camp more often, and Ian wanted something that he could stand up in. You are very welcome to it, I think along with Debs the five of you would be OK. I will ask Ian to dig it out this evening, with this lovely weather we are having, I think I will put it over the clothes line to give it a good airing for you.

 

[carolfoy]

woohoo!!!!!

 

[saratogagirl]

woohoo!!!!!

woohoo indeed, we will be taking over the site at this rate

 

[Chilly]

It would be great if you can come as well Joh!

So what do I need to bring with me?
