Ghosty Posted August 27, 2017 Share Posted August 27, 2017 It'd be an idea. I suspect us campers will be having a mini-convoy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heidel_Kakao Posted August 27, 2017 Share Posted August 27, 2017 Yeah if anyone feels like meeting up at the campsite for convoying purposes that could work. chaseracer 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conrad D. Conelrad Posted August 27, 2017 Share Posted August 27, 2017 Campsite seems to be in-between me and the show, so I'm up for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Squire_Dawson Posted August 28, 2017 Share Posted August 28, 2017 I will go to the cafe if that is the plan. Cos I can never resist a cooked breakfast. If anybody is without chod and wants to come I have room in the car and will be leaving from central Manchester on the morning. strangeangel 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dollywobbler Posted August 28, 2017 Share Posted August 28, 2017 If anybody is without chod and wants to come I have room in the car and will be leaving from central Manchester on the morning. That's a fair offer. Each ticket is for two people isn't it? I'd be happy to give a lift to anyone who finds themselves 'without shite.' strangeangel 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

strangeangel Posted August 29, 2017 Share Posted August 29, 2017 On looking again at my plans, I think I'll just head straight there after the Wales match in Cardiff on Saturday night - hardly seems worth going home! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dollywobbler Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 I'll try posting this in the correct thread... Right. Planets are aligning and I'm going to be working in Cheshire on Saturday, so that means I'm a definite for camping. Where are we at with that? Is there still capacity within our group or do I need to ring up and make my own booking? Heidel_Kakao 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heidel_Kakao Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 Is there still capacity within our group or do I need to ring up and make my own booking? Ring and make your own booking, based on last year I would be very surprised if they are fully booked. Let us know if you get charged £15 or £20 out of interest.

mat_the_cat Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 I could bring a welder. If we going to make use of 'free' electricity then we may as well draw a decent current... andy18s, davidfowler2000, dollywobbler and 6 others 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dollywobbler Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 But do we need a conversion lead? I'm guessing they're not just 240v sockets sitting in a field. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghosty Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 I think they come with that funny circular blue plug with a flap on it. You can't really have a three pin plug just sitting in a field for people to plug extension leads into! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that happens what time is the meet at the cafe, opening hours say 8:30-2pm which is quite a big window to guess at Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
