righto all booked - remember guys there is NO shower or toilet facility on site, only running water. Not sure which garages are nearby that are 24/7 and might have a thunderbox, will do a recce.

I think the old dear on the other end of the phone might be a bit miffed if we dug a hole in the middle of her field and took a dump in it, so be warned please!!

Going out later to drop off a deposit (no, not of the toilet kind!) to her, so if anyone wants a pitch whose name isn't down yet, you'll have to PM me.
