Do I need to pack my rock pegs for the Bash?

I got caught out at Southern Softies :oops:

Shouldn't need to as its all grass pitches and good earth there I think, but I'd keep them on board anyway (I do) so as not to be caught out (maybe if the earth is baked by drought etc?)

You hardly even need a hammer just pushed mine in with my boot! I used a hammer on the tie down pegs for the awning as there a bit bigger ;-)

Are you speaking from experience, Geoff? Are you there already?

Mike - I think your Bongo may be bigger than mine. I'm trying to kick the "just in case" habit. I have already concluded that my Bongo shrunk in the night. Having said that, if we go to parts uncharted I take all sorts of "just in case" items so I hope my Bongo grows a bit before our Summer hols :wink:

See you both dreckly, as we say here :D

Don't think you'll need rock pegs Alison, good ground as Mike says.

I will say I tend to use only rock pegs when I'm Bongoing as he doesn't mind the weight (very different matter if I'm cycle camping or hiking) and that way you only need one set of pegs, no Just In Case. :D

Last year I just attatched my awning to Bob.

Once he's laid flat nothing can move him.


:lol:

Cheaper to buy pegs than provide that amount of cider. :lol: :lol: :lol:

Explains why it was so difficult to get into the loo. :D

Yes we are here! Along with about 60-80 others, the ground is quite reasonable, but probably getting harder but not a lot.
