Haven't asked about those possibilities yet but I won't be relying on them being that flexible...

But as of about 3pm this afternoon they still had 4 Caravan Club Certified Location pitches available for the 2 nights in question.

Welcome Ma-Hale and Bin Bongoed, (I have to ask if you are related to Bin Laden), it'll be our first meet, so look forward to seeing every one.

Maybee if we kept moving th Bongos around they couldn't count us?

Paul,

Are they close to the main rally field, or tucked away 'out of sight & out of mind'?

We are doubled booked for a curry evening on the Saturday so can't make it (and it's sold out anyway) so have a good time everyone

Unfortunately, although they are probably no more than 5 meters from where we will be. They are the other side of some trees and bushes. So it's not really that good an idea. And I am not going to ask any of the existing bookings to move there.

But if there is anyone new who are CC members and want to come then they might want to use that as a way in to the meet....

Hello everyone,

Have been to Brokerswood today and we now have 3 extra spaces which officially will be on their own (at the most about 40 metres from the main group but within view) and could have electric if you have extensions.

That is a final total of 20 spaces, it won't get bigger than that!

Or they will (probably) be integrated (squeezed

)within the existing bookings and therefore the electric hookups will have to be manipulated (daisy chained) to cope.

At present that means there are 2 extra spaces available on a first come basis.

Have to take my daughter out

so will be back with more info later

We will be there, don't need hook up so if we're at the end of a field I really don't mind. Thanks for organising.

Am I right in in thinking that there is still one place left?

If so may I have it? Oh and how long an extension lead would I need for leccy?

Can I have it please? Assuming my bongo is ready (landing any time now has to be registered and a few extras added before I can pick it up)
