Yeah, but every time you go off to enjoy a nice relaxing weekend at a meet you get dragged up some 3,000 foot high mountain by a glamorous granny, a human whippet and a big black dog!

Especially if he hasn't changed his clothes all year...

I just hope he washes them occasionally!

Yeah they're quite obnoxious really, but life would be dull without its little challenges

A great thread, love all the pics. Can't believe I missed the stripey tent of Vals, I dread to think how many tents you must have!

I realy hope to come along to one of the meets next year, its just difficult with work as I work every other weekend. However, as a single mum with kids it would be great for me to meet up with other people, and actually have some adults to talk to for once!

Another vote for an up north trip. Try Bobbybees Caravan Site, don't panic, they have several fields with tents in. Almost anything goes there, so you rabel should be ok. No mountains to climb though. Great post, really enjoyed the pictures

If you came there, I could bring all the tents I have for sale

I think I am about to have some major life changing events in the next few months, including moving to two new homes, both on land and water.   The catalist for this is outside my control, so it's fingers crossed.

All the best to you all and for a great 2012 camping season with plenty of dry weather. bob

Canvas tent, paraffin light, petrol stove. Heaven
I'd rather be kayaking.
Spent up, not pent up, just had my new tent up.

really enjoyed the photos, and survived this years meet at Hopleys, it was great to meet everybody and see all the different tents, and thanks to everybody for makeing me feel very welcome.

Looking forward to next years get together's and going to try my tent without the inner, having seen the Izzmir's I think it should go up quicker, its only a small tent but id used 50 pegs.

Hi Fiona!  It was great to meet you at the weekend!  That was the best fun a fantastic gang of people could have in a foggy field EVER!!!

The new photos are on the 'Hopley's Return' thread over on the Central Meet-ups Board.

Hope to see you again next year.

Hehe, it's 'Ruthie'... or just plain 'Ruth'!   (I probably wasn't speaking too clearly after the wine, the mulled cider and the Bailey's! )

Glad you enjoyed the spuds!  Look forward to meeting up again.

Hehehehehehehe!   Not the last time I looked in the mirror, purplebean!

Maybe it's not very feminine to be an admirer of owls??  When we were at the meet at Hopleys over the weekend, someone was introduced to Hedgehugger and nearly fell over in surprise, as she had always thought Hh was a fella too!

It's the funniest thing about message boards - unless we choose a gender-obvious username, we could be either!  I suppose it says a lot about the gender-neutral way most of us post.
