Off to Pembrokeshire on Friday (to miss the wedding). A little bit peeved that I was at home for all the sub tropical weather we have been having!! Half my reason for going this weekend was that sods law dictates "The weather will be crap for Easter BH" but now look what happened! Still, I think it is going to be reasonable even if we do have to dodge the odd shower. Still can't wait to go!
We're going to Knight Stainforth near Settle for our second trip out this year. Friday to Monday. And next week we are going Thursday to Sunday to Kirkby Lonsdale.
Dower House Touring Park in Thetford. Off tonight ! First proper trip in our new Icarus 500XL. Hope the pitch is big enough for me to put the extension on !
Dawn, please let us know what Dower House is like when you return - we are off there in July for 3 nights. It looks lovely!

Dower House is a nice site to relax on ( although it is a few years since we have been). Kids went in the pool ( it was June!!), and there are walks in the forest.
Just booked at Hogsdown Farm near Bristol.
Goping to go pick up a little number. Our first canvas tent of our very own (last one was long term loaned off brother in law before we married). This one I won off ebayu and is a lamont frame tent. Saw it and fell in love.
Hogsdown has some good reviews and is close by but will have to use our 6 berth for the overnight with the kids. New tent isn't big enough and is going to be our little love nest for when the kids have respite all at the same time.
Off to Gibralter Farm for 4 days, just finished packing trailer, which aint big enough it seems. First time camping in our bear lake,only had it up in front garden so i feel like a kid at xmas at the moment. Just goin to have another beer now to chill down. Lookin at the forecast it shoulnt rain till wednesday, fingers crossed. Usually use metcheck but their site aint workin so used netweather,hope its accurate. yippee..
Spending the weekend at home through choice. Bliss........ No traffic jams. No pitch wars. No anti-social behaviour. Perfect. First camp of the season next weekend so should be less manic
