Booked for Saturday and Sunday so should arrive around midday on Saturday. As for finding each other all I can suggest is to look for a green and red mini or a repmobile - lol. My tent and car are on my profile photos. If you see me driving around aimlessly give me a wave. Don't jump in front of me because my eyes aren't as good as they used to be.

Busy with this and that!!!

Packed, more or less ready to go, and it is a lovely calm sunny dry day, ideal for pitching up.

BTW, judging from the glowing report from those who have just returned from Birchwood, this looks like a gem of a campsite, and shall find out for myself very soon!

TTFN, I am off! Hope to see some of you very soon!!!

When I booked it sounded as if they had plenty of room. Try phoning. I believe they are open for business until quite late and open again in the morning from 0830hrs.

Well, only 3 of us there but we all had a good time. Hope you are not unwell, Fran. Thought you had booked 3 nights. Searched for a repmobile but couldn't find one.
