I think they run a just turn up policy and I've no idea how many vans we could fit on the site (1 acre) my husband seems to think that we should all be ok - the last time I was there there were several campers, converted trucks & buses but on the whole the site was filled with tents!
I'm a newbie to this but I'm sure you've got someones number that you could call if you wanted to ....
Look forward to meeting you,

Lambs Spit roast is on. I think if people just bring salads/ Alcohol.that should do it we can warm ourselves around the coals /wood latter but i think "Dorothy" would be welcome as well

. W e need the atlantic High to move up more for chance at some good weather. Fingers crossed

Dorothy is raring to go

eager to make new friends

& I'll bring a pile of wood to keep her going, if anyone's got any gazebo's we can strap together in case of inclement weather, it may be a good idea.

Hence the name

If you can guess the 3 reasons to justify the name you win a fake Pot Noodle

Only possible connections I can think of are
Dorothy in the Twister movie and twister (tornado) &
Dorothy in YBR.

I know just typical my shift pattern gets in the way of loads of things / meets I missed Looe as well this year - I just cannot win - roll on retirement so I can do what I want to !!!!
I then won't be able to afford to run a vehicle at all - if fossile fuel is still around then and we haven't used it all up.
