I really hope we can make it, but we're going to have a very busy month. If I can get back and repacked in time ??? then 100 miles there . Stay 'til monday and then another 100 miles to Lincoln.
Couple of days there and home again. I'm sure it would be worth it though! Only thing is , I might have to leave BBQ and marquee with one of you guys. Unless I cancel Lincoln
We'll see!!!!!!
Things always get better after they are worse
So it's good to make things worse as soon as possible!

I have called in my 'owed weekend' and get to come to this one alone
.
I figured dragging the hubby and mini along when we have York the following weekend may be a much for them. Anyway, I will have had mini for half term so I will deserve a break

Groovy.
Lidl in Ripley, DE5 3DL
Aldi in Alfreton, DE55 4JJ
Also a humongous Sainsbury's at Ripley, DE5 3QP
All only a few miles from the campsite.
As far as I know you don't need to book.
