Right, agreed on Sunday before anyone says they can't do it :)

Shall we meet on Saturday night and camp over somewhere, or do a 'there and back' in a day?

EDIT: On the basis that the roads will be quiet by the evening

cheers

Teehee...

So where will we camp? Anyone got a field / lawn / etc in the Exeter area? You could probably camp at my place, but it's a bit of a drive from Exeter.

cheers

The offer has been made at a certain place, but I really don't think I have authority to allow lots of us to appear ;) You lot got access to tents? It's well cheap to go to a proper campsite, and is a good laff. Me and Foggy can keep the choons going (well, Foggy will have to take over when we need some illumination ;)) Well worth a go, theres loads of cool places round there.

Ohhh, taken a while to get back for all those peugots quips.... How about somewhere a bit more beachy... and make it a sandy one, my kites want an outing.

Second thoughts... that means down by Foggy, compounding the orig problem. Well, somewhere beachy anyway!

Oohh its so tempting to edit ;) Moderator Powah :P

Hmm.. beach could be fun, although a plan really needs to be formed quickly! I don't mind where around the area it is if I'll drive on Saturday evening anyway...

We need to be careful - most campsites won't allow groups of young men. Still, at ~£13/night, it's cheap enough. I'd expect everywhere to be booked btw. Can I get someone to make a few calls about bookings?

Attendees so far...
Me
Chris
Steve
Andy
MJ
Edit: Pete
...any more?
Can we have a tally of who is planning to camp? I have a tent...

cheers

I was trying to find something a tad further away from where you and Kate normally are, which is why I said that Taunton one. Other than that, I'll ask her as she knows the area, and update later.

Where me and Kate normally are? She told you?! :shock: (Got to direct the attention away from the ENTIRE UK Tbricks crew boffing my Mrs...)

Can I put someone else in charge of camping...please? :)

So...I take it we're doing the steam rally on the Sunday?

Pettaw and MJ (and Pete?)...we need to know ASAP if you're intending to camp on Saturday night, as we're (probably) booking tomorrow. Post, PM, email, IM...whatever...let us know :)

cheers
