Sunday - Showers (and more wind )

How boggy's the tent pitching area?

Its not Boggy

The grounds just soft and a bit waterlogged but by the looks of things this won't matter after friday night as it will be frozen solid by then.

and yep your right i will be sleeping in my own bed i'm not daft enough to go camping in january when there's so many empty B&Bs in the area

Like i've said if it gets bad theres always the barn and if it goes polar then there's always the floor of the restaurant

Bikes ready for the road just have to throw some bits in the panniers.

That is a good price, but I've got to tighten my belt in this current economic climate so it's for me.
