our forecast was abysmal - we have had 2 days of sunshine now in cornwall

they invariably get it wrong

Hope you have a lovely camping trip!!  Hope it stays fair!!

I never tell my kid when we are going, saves the disappointment!!

Sorry to hear about the car... Pheasants are bloomin crazy things!

Braved the conditions last weekend in Staxton near Scarborough till wednesday.

Arrived on Friday to rain and struggled to get the tent up, Very windy for mosst of the holiday through the nights and on Tuesday we were about to admit defeat due to the winds but then realised we would probably be in a worse situation trying to take the tent down in 40-50 mph gusts ( very large tent) so hung out and survived. Rained again when due to take the tent down.

Did have some nice weather in between though mainly in the afternoons

I guess we were lucky one tent arrived , lasted a day and then wind snapped one of their poles and off to home it was for them.
