Suggestion for non-film buffs

Post by Jillygumbo » Sat Apr 04, 2009 6:19 pm

If anyone else doesn't fancy the idea of watching films, perhaps others may like to join us on a trip to Bewdley Safari Park? I really enjoyed the trip that year [many moons ago] and my OH wants to go.

Will be cool to join up with other bongos and make it a convoy.

Looking to go on the Saturday at around 11 am. If you're interested in joining us, perhaps we could also double up and save fuel costs too, let me know.

Here's some information from the website http://www.wmsp.co.uk/home_opening.php - I'm off to order my tickets through Tesco Clubcard Deals.

Nice idea for wildlife folks, we will only be doing Fri/Sat nights sue to commitments......

so we will dip out of this one.....plus we are not Tesco shoppers so no discounts apply.....will probably do some NT or EH places as members

Nice idea. Hmmmm possible we might come if we are feeling energetic. Mind you is it one of those where monkey rip bits of your motor - worth checking that out just in case. Don't want our beloved Bongos b*ggered about with by monkeys :shock:

I can't remember if there were no monkeys, or if there was a route that you could take to bypass the monkeys - but either way, we had no monkeying about during our last visit - so your Bongo's safe!

Actually that might be spot on for a plane buff like me, and I gather the Cold War exhibition is very good. Good thought Dabs =D>

There are specifically no monkey enclosures you drive through. They've got some wonderful white lions and white tigers.

I've bought my Tesco Clubcard Deal Days Out ticket today - bargain!

This cheeky monkey liked our Bongo

We miss the monkeys at the safari park - but it's still a really good day out.

Not really sure what we've got planned for the bash except lots of chillin'
