all hardcorestanding
had 1200 litre plastic oil tanks all round the place for toilet disposal which were emptied frequently throughout the weekend.

he supplied big gennys all round too for electric which was only to top your battery up but as usual people were trying to run everything on them and they were tripping out. i can see why he is not offering ehu this year although if you need electric for medical equip he can accomodate you.

was very well run, plenty of entertainment for kids etc and few competitions for adults, ie trailer reversing.
entertainment on at night in the big marquee.
and food supplied several times a day.

the accessories shop had weekend deals on too, with agents there for dometic etc.

We just found out today all about the weekend, and cant wait !!! Free food, Free Entertainment, Free giveaways.......... and meet up with friends from all over the country? Whatever about the Weather this weekend is a must, if only to get everyone on the road again...
and if you haven't been before, you'll be kicking yourself that you missed it.
Hope to see all the old gang from the highways and by-ways
