				We're booked for two nights, but we will probably find somewhere else to go for at least another night. I just don't know where yet 

I could go to south wales to meet up with friends, plus I've never really explored Pembrokeshire way so that might be nice.

Ours is silver, but right now actually, it's kind of hard to see the colour as it's sooooo dirty.. must get out there and give her a clean

I wish.. just paid another £40 odd pounds for our gang.. and that's minus one of my girls  
 
However, the fuel price we would normally pay to go to Bristol has been saved as we're doing a Reading half way drop with the Ex for the little ones

				Just thought I'd let you know, we stayed at Wellington Park last weekend (plenty cheaper off season!). Its an excellently kitted out Park. Great facilities (washing/toilets/showers) and the park is lovely. If you have the children, it is seriously good fun for them, with about ten different play areas. A new petting farm has just opened too. I hope for everyones sake the donkey has calmed down by then because he really gave it the full lung treatment at 3am!!

We too have stayed there a few times when we're getting the bongo serviced locally. It's a great place and the pitchs are fab! Have to say, I've not heard the donkey yet :S
