Venue for the test pitch may have to move to another site, as Devizes C&CC apparently is not taking bookings for EHU grass pitch for 1 night only this weekend.

Good job there is another site nearby with good facilities.

I may try Devizes first though.

For future reference if you don't already know...The Three Magpies pub just up the road from Devizes C&CC have EHU grass pitches and I was told by the barmaid that they charge £10 per pitch regardless of number of occupants. Might be worth checking on that though.

Sara, your English is excellent, and no question is stupid.

I have never thought of it before but 'peg out' is a peculiar phrase because it means put the peg in.  When you 'peg out', for example a groundsheet, it means stretch the groundsheet out and put the pegs in to the ground to hold it in place. 'Peg in' means to put the peg in the ground.  Just in case you haven't figured it the 'pegs' are the pins pushed or hammered into the ground used to hold the groundsheet, guy ropes etc.

Keep asking questions, it's the way everyone learns.
