Ta!

The door to the bunkhouse is only about 50 yds from the campsite, so I guess its possible.
If you are around the Bury area anytime before the bbq give me a shout and I can maybe meet you down there to show you round if that helps.

Bought the tent and all the gear to go with it. How do you power up a 40" TV
screen? Or am I missing the point?

Was going to suggest plugging it into the nearest tree, but thats already reserved for my hair dryer

Looking forward to this.

I have the four days after booked off work too, so going to have a nice long break.

9)AwesomeSarah and Mark (one tent) and Breakky both days please
10)Neo_VR - Camping + breakfast both days

gillywibble · 10-04-2007, 17:40

).

My sentiments entirely

yashicamat · 10-04-2007, 19:25

Hee hee, very tempting but these are rather important! But as this is an "early BBQ" they'll no doubt be a later one . . which I'll DEFINATELY be at!

Promises below:

Yes I will bring huge mushrooms.

I will try and create colossal clouds of smoke.

I will not drink that strange beer.

I will not drive my car through the trees halfway through the night.

sharkrider · 11-04-2007, 18:20

another way to look at this Rob, is that if you don't know your stuff by the Saturday before your exams, there is very little you can do over the weekend

take a study break over the weekend, to let it all sink in

Or.....................come along anyway and do a bit of studying while we're all getting schlozzled

You're making a massive assumption about my willpower there.

ashraf_d · 12-04-2007, 09:15

How about the new Fabia ?
is it good for camping?

I've got a headache thinking about it all
