OK Peeps,

How does Hollands Wood campsite sound?

Check it out at http://www.forestholidays.co.uk/camping__caravanning/england/new_forest/hollands_wood.aspx

No electric but nice toilet and shower blocks. Also has a field next door, in the forest so the animals are walking in with the tents and a nice stream nearby if you fancy a splash about.

VX1 and I are looking to leave Reading at about 2pm on Friday 22nd August and travel to Basingstoke, pick up the M3 and then M27 to Lyndhurst. If anyone is on the way, you could join us as we pass.

Thanks
Mike

But we will be there for the nights of at least 22nd and 23rd.....won't we.

Marti, reckon we should meet at the services on the M27, immediately after the M3, of which the name escapes me. Will you be able to meet us there at about 4.30pm?
Paul, can we move the leave time until about 3.30pm as my wife has to work until 3pm?

Thanks
Mike

Shouldn't be to much of a problem. I will more than likely leave a bit earlier than that as I only do about 60 mph, but I can meet you at the services the first one on the M27?
I just realised Mike that its not the bank holiday weekend, thats the following weekend.

Paul :y

Paul,

Check your calendar. Monday 25th August IS Bank Holiday Monday.

I don't mind following you at 60, the speed limit is only 70 :)

So I would be looking to do Fri, Sat and Sun night :)

Title: Changed to Oxfordshire Meet
Post by: VX1 on 20 July 2008, 22:12:17
Ok everyone I have changed the venue to Banbury Site details will follow very soon. This has changed due to not much of interest to the south coast meet. We would like to get some members from the Midlands area to make it a good weekend. The date is the same but different venue. All welcome and all OOFERS. Come for the day or the weekend time to relax and have some fun.

Hi Paul,

I think maybe the problem is that it is the middle of the holiday season.  I would certainly be up for a trip to the New Forest, but not on a bank holiday weekend.

Probably also worth posting in the General area to catch peoples attention who may not look here?

In the meantime there's always Max's :) :)

Cheers,
Ian
