Station Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 PLEASE do Llangollen -> Aberystwyth again, the little museum was perfect camping environment and the drive after was brilliant. Even if no Aberystwyth it was still better. rml2345 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnK Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 I think a decision just needs to be made on the dates to be quite honest, for me at least I have no commitments either weekend but I like to take Friday and Monday of shitefest weekend as holidays at work so I can't commit to anything until dates are firmed up and leave is booked. I'm sure it's the same for others. trigger, beko1987 and HMC 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beko1987 Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 Same here. Will arrive Friday lunchtime then take Monday off to recover and make it feel like a proper holiday! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CreepingJesus Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 I withdrew my vote, til I see what shakes out. The weekend following the 16th is no good for me, and I'd rather car camp than drag the feckin massive tent out, or buy a little un.Other than that, I'm easy.

Slappy Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 Ah nuts. Just suggested to my GF that we'd be able to see her rental units as she happens to be from Boston. Alternatively I'm already in westest Wales over that Bank Holiday, but understand if that's out as an option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rml2345 Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 Llangollen was ace and the folks running the museum didn't even complain when we started their van. I'm easy over dates/location anyway, if the bubble car museum are going to be antsy about sleeping in cars the roof of the Volvo is pretty flat so I can pitch the tent on it and claim to be sleeping underneath.In the car.Edited to add; Could we do the Internal Fire museum again? That was bloody brilliant. chaseracer 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Breadvan72 Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 Is there a memorial plaque to help us find it again?  There will be a map attached to the Restraining Order. chaseracer, oldcars, taxi paul and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Twiggy Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 I`ve slept in the car on camp sites from Devon to Scotland, and  no one ever complained........... Anyway, that means I`m out. Langollen sounds OK. Many thanks to The Moog for being brave enough to take this on - much appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Moog Posted February 20, 2017 Author Share Posted February 20, 2017 Poll results suggest 2-4th June.   Therefore that shall be the date. I shall book forwith.  I am sure that if you intend on sleeping in a tent but fall asleep in your car, there won't be a lot said.

M'coli Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 Re car sleeping - bring a tent, pitch it, sleep in the car and if they complain ask them what they would do to get peace when someone is snoring and farting loudly...?

Six-cylinder Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 So to be clear we are going to the Bubble car museum 2-4 June 2017. Great, I have not cancelled my booking for B&B so I am all set. Sorry no camping for me, I would not even sleep in my own field let alone a strange one! Now Mr Moog if you could just let me know what the weather is going to be so I can decide weather to bring a convertible or not! Are we nearly there yet!

taxi paul Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 Bring large tent . Drive car into tent. Turn off engine, this is a must. Sleep in car. No one will ever know. I am certain has long has camping fee is paid no one will say anything. rml2345, The Moog and CreepingJesus 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beko1987 Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 I'm a bit wary tbh. Sorry, but I'm coming a fair way, with no intention of tenting. Even if I buy a £9.99 child's tent and not sleep in it, if the owners do stay on site and kick off about it, and kick me off site, I'm not going to be best pleased, and probably have to drive home.  Even if they do t realise the first night, they might the second.  Unless everyone will do similar, so shitty empty tent next to the car, big airbed inside car and a fuck them attitude. Then I might be interested, cos I'm a wuss when on my own, but with a large number of people doing the same, I can be the fat kid at the back stirring shit up and backing the bigger boys up...

catsinthewelder Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 They can accept us kipping in cars for £8 per person per night or we can all pretend to be sleeping in my teepee for £8 for everyone. beko1987, chaseracer, The Moog and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dollywobbler Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 Six-cylinder - as I'm sadly missing this one, and car camping is a bit of an unknown, would you be happy to host an Autumn mini-Shitefest again? I was disappointed to miss that last year. EDIT - not to detract from the main event, just as last year.

Yes. Last year we managed a couple of low key weekends after Shitefest that worked really well. holbeck, KruJoe, egg and 4 others 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pillock Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 This is the closest shitefest has ever come to my gaff, so it seems rude not to. I shall speak to the person who knows more about my diary than I do, and come back to you. BTW, I've got a shit modern car, I'm tipsy after three shandies, and I snore. Just a heads-up. beko1987, The Moog and mat_the_cat 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Moog Posted February 20, 2017 Author Share Posted February 20, 2017 Now Mr Moog if you could just let me know what the weather is going to be so I can decide weather to bring a convertible or not! Are we nearly there yet!I can do weather forecasts - just not able to ensure that we are all happy campers/car sleepers  Beko - people have previously mentioned being able to do that so I think as long as you are subtle it should be fine.
