DOZY, great news about that - very easy for me to get to!
I have been to the Surrey Quays Decathlon (impressive) but on the tube but Colindale is quick and easy by car - that could however be a bit unfortunate for my bank account!

Your satellite of Liverpool must be close to me.

I met my husband in Colindale - we worked together there for BT many moons ago.

Approx 15- 20 mins in car for me. I told the boss man last night, he looked scared and just managed to squeak out "but we don't need anything do we ?"

hahahahahahahahahahahaha!!!!!

Living down here in the west country  we haven't got anything like that!

Near me is Stowford  where we buy a few bits from the shop. Also got  aYeomans 45 mins away but only a small shop, last year they did a exhibition in  alocal field but not this year. Trelawny does a exhibition, but it's not very good. :-(

Hi
Just a shout for your local family run camping shops... I know they have to stand on their own two feet re prices etc but most are very good on price and offer the sort of products you only get in a shop where the owner runs it.

That's great news. I'm always saying we have to travel so far for a good camp shop.

I can't wait now either!!

Agreed with the local camping shops

go outdoors, yeomans, etc aren't half as good as Jacksons of Arley for choice, helpfulness etc.  A lot cheaper at Jacksons as well

the only thing they don't stock is outwells

agree with you there - we always check out our local! (30 mile round trip) camping shop & today we bought the Vango Icarus 500 footprint for #20 which is the cheapest we've found, even cheaper than fleabay!!

I agree there's probably cheaper and more choice of tents elsewhere, but when you just want a browse or a couple of new bits and pieces  it's going to be great not to have to travel miles.
