You didn't have one of those trouble making Omega's did you?  ;)

I had gone before the trouble........ ;D ;D ;D

You were seen snaeking in the office with a fooking big wooden spoon just before you left.   ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

You told me you were not going, so it was you hiding behind that desk.... ;D ;D ;D

We took a look at that the other year when we stayed at the small site behind the pub.... dont likeh uge sites in all honesty. The pub owuld be an ideal location if it were a smaller meet and leccy wasnt required

Didn't know there was one behind. You talking about the pub just uphill from coniston hall, can't remember the name now, the ship rings a bell.

If there was ever a meet near Blackpool I know of a farm site near Garstang where we could take over as much as needed. The owner is really easy going & would work out some kind of deal for us. Site capacity is about 100 caravans and it's arranged in a big 'U' shape. Shower facilies are primative at the moment but a new building is being put up this year with a large drinking games room.

Re the Lakes visit.
Granted we were a bit late on leaving Burns Farm this afternoon - about 4 o'clock, but as we were heading back to the 'van Linda was marching across the fiel to unplug us because we were 'stealing her electric' & apparently we owed her another £8!
I sent a £10 deposit way back, and when I turned up, I said who I was to her daughter(?) who then asked for another £10. As far as I was concerned that was that. To then be screemed at across the field 'cos we apparently then owed more money really p***ed me off.
It's perhaps a good job that we're banned next year, not that I think we'd want to go back, cos Burns Farm seemingly needs to go on communications & organisation course so the left hand knows what the right hand is doing. As far as Linda was aware, we were going to use the field on the other side of the wall from where the 3 caravans & Mark(Chopsdad?) were pitched, but we all pitched where the daughter(?) told us on 3 seperate sections of the site.
Considering the number of paying customers in tents on the 2 or 3 pitches at the opposite end of the site I don't think that Burns Farm did too badly out of the week end despite of us 'stealing' some electric!
hi dont worry about it i live in that neck off the woods and good friends of mine run a campsite at the other end of bassenthwaite lake and you would be more than welcome,he also runs a garage and bodyshop on the same land.so if any repairs need done its on hand,i hope this helps,bighuck :y

Don't know about linking up to Photobucket but I could've linked a bucket of something to her. It was the way she screamed at SWMBO demanding another £8 ..... as though we should've scrutinised her bloody website for charges etc. We paid what we'd been told to pay & had no need to look at her site as all the info I needed ie where I was going, had been posted here at some time or other.

Mother and daughter make a scary pair!
I did seem to get the blame for every thing:
the leccy tripping out,
the difference between the amount of people who booked and turned up,
the lack of info from our 'group leader' (chopsdad),
the lack of parking space,
the ladies being constantly full of duke of edinburgh students.

considering we paid nearly 60 quid for our pitch i think i had a right to be pissed off!
she wanted to charge us another 14 quid to park our cars near our tent! She had crammed 4 tents in 3 pitches and not taken parking into account!
I also missed out on the bbq as she wouldnt allow us to use the same spot on the second night and we had 4 small children asleep in our tent!

Missed the opportunity to share my views with the mother though!
