Re: Lakes camping trip post meet discussion etc

anyone recommend any im thinking norfolk (nice roads) or suffolk, but probably a local member to that area would be needed to plan it. or maybe back to the new forest or even hayling island.

Ideally we want somewhere out the way where we can have some sort of camp-fire, music and mayhem.

Smstext may be thinking of Sark in the Channel Islands - that's one that is car free.

I just noticed on that video of mine I almost caught the moment you got onto 3 wheels Sharkrider. If the camera had been a little higher it would have caught it.

Re: Lakes camping trip post meet discussion etc

A few pics of the Briskoda archers.....

Ready for the off....



Little Katie



HC1



HC2





Luke (ruku)



Kyle



The result was somewhat dubious - with Kyle initially claiming a score of 250 in the final round out of a maximum possible 180

His revised "estimate" still gave him a narrow victory.

Kyle can't add though! We worked out if he added properly he would have about 400 or something, haha.

that would be really cool... been withing reasonable driving distance of the ferrys for a couple of years now, but not made it over there yet... I REALLY wanna do the "no speed limits" roads that Clarkson and Co: take the Astons ect

nice bit of history too...

Apologies to all for disappering sat night. Me and swmbo didn't get much sleep on friday (bit noisy for us)

We eneded up having to quickly move to another site on the other side of Keswick.

Good to meet the people who arrived on the friday.
