If you are going away somewhere and don't mind meeting up with other Bongo owners or if you've been somewhere & want to tell us about it & stick up your photos, put the details here.

Seriously tempted but as it's the weekend before Looe I'm not entirely convinced that I can cope with two weekends away (or that Isaac can cope with two weekends of late nights during term time) :shock: Also, it will depend on how much the price of diesel has increased by then. Will make a late decision!

Would be nice to see you again and catch up. In the process of trying to see if we can go while panicking and hoping Tink passes her MOT today [-o< [-o< [-o<[/quote]Fingers crossed for Tink. I'm sure she'll be fine. A larger part of my brain is telling me that we can drag ourselves up to Brean for at least one night![/quote]

Listen that part of your brain :) I'll book as soon as I find out if x can pick up my daughter from her D or E :)

OK have been given the go ahead that I can go, despite OH's 60th. Have managed to get 2 whole weeks off work.

Will contact Channel View tomorrow if I can and book for Saturday and Sunday. May manage Friday too but not 100% about that.

Then I'll move on down towards Looe. Perhaps the new Tavistock C&CC club site? Will look into that. Anyone else got anything planned for the in-between?

Then Looe. Then Magic Cove until the Sunday after the Looe weekend. Then a long trek home :cry:

Then back to that damn job! :evil:

We've still not booked but plan on booking it this week :) Bongobaz has booked in already and suggests somewhere on this thread that we give a name so we can all be together... I'll have to look back through the thread to see what that "name" was :lol: :lol:

I've just booked for the Sat and Sun nights. I asked to be near Clark and was told that they would have to move Clark if we wanted to be near them because they wanted to be near the facilities. Someone else has booked a seaview pitch (costs more), so I've just booked and had done with it (non seaview) but I'll come and see you on your seaview pitch :lol:

Would be interested to see who is proposing to camp between this and Looe. I'm doing the same. Was wondering whether to try the new C&CC site at Tavistock? Cheaper for me on me todd you see!

Might be looking for a small space outside a bongo, pup tent size, with maybe enough room for a motorbike :wink: . Not worth booking a spot until i know what the weathers going to be like. And if I can afford the fuel to do both meets :? :wink:

Never mentioned sea view or facilities when i booked think they're making it up as they go perhaps there are more of us than they thought. lets start a list.

I may be able to partly solve this thread ...

I think I was the first to book (seaview), but needed to be near the facilities cos my husband will try to make it for this one, and he has MS ..

does this help??

Looking forward to meeting lots of new chums and praying for decent weather (Silverstone was dire!! :( )

sorry for any confusion that may have arisen
