Was out in the car yesterday shopping expecting the rain to come but it never came, so we decided to turn around car, go home, hitch up trailer full of camping gear, packed some clothes, popped into sainsburys and bought some burgers and sausages and some babs and not forgetting the dispossible BBQ and just headed south.

40 mins later found a campsite with still loads of space and just pitched up for the night.

What a glorious night to. Kids had a park to play in and then a few card games till quite late whilst the wife and i consummed lots of cider (well we are Devions 17 )

Then a mad rush to pack away by 10am and home just in time for the F1 racing.

Moral of the story. ITS JUST FAB TO GET AWAY EVEN FOR A NIGHT AND THAT IS THE JOYS OF CAMPING.

All stress free now for a 60 hour week at work   

Just thought i would share that little tale with you and i guess you all have same experiences??

Hello Blimey long time since I seen you about

Glad you had a good trip and the kids enjoyed themselves

Keep an eye on DC bikers you missed a good weekend camping the other week, we are hoping to arrange another one soon.

That was the BIKES4FLIGHT run from Plymouth to Wadebridge and Penzance to Wadebridge in aid of air ambulance, we were all there you should have come up they didn't leave until 11am.
If you have a look on DC you'll see what we get up to when camping Have a word with A_T or Miler on SWB about the next one.
