I'm really good at using a keyboard, I can only say mummy, daddy, no and Autobianchi Bianchina Panoramica.  And I wet the bed.

[tapir]

I'm up for this in May

 

[maxxo]

So as it's a 3 day event is it just on site camping or is there any hotels nearby that are reccomended being at least mediocre?

[trigger]

It's just a field but it is camping, £5 a night for tents, I'll check but caravans will probably be around the same price, best bet for hotels would be one of the Holiday Inn/Travelodge or Premier inns in Ipswich, all will be around 15-20mins from the field.

oooh camping sounds fun! i shall do that

Does the landlady of the Rose have any objection to people kipping in their cars?  Obvs the intention is that I'll drive home in the evening and back down the following morning, but if I end up accidentally* having a drink I might need to sleep in whatever I've come down in.

[3VOM]

Probably yes for this

[bub2006]

The distance is doable on the trike which has got me thinking. I may be tempted to get a hotel room though due to being in a tent will knacker my back up and I dont have a trailer tent any more. Could make a bivvy in the erde trailer I've got though ?

Price of Ipswich South Premier Inn has just gone down for the Saturday night.

I've just booked Friday and Saturday night for £60.50 (non refundable), so I'm screwed if I can't make it, but really £30 a night for a reasonable bed is pretty good!

Breakfast is £9.50 extra a night, but you can obviously just choose to have that at the time if you want it.

I notice Suffolk food hall is nearby and does some (not cheap) breakfast options too: https://suffolkfoodhall.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/A5-menu-October.pd

There is also the cookhouse restaurant on that site that does the full English etc https://suffolkfoodhall.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/Breakfast-Franchise-font-2019-July.pdf

is hotel or whatever booking something you must do well in advanced?

or can it be done closer to the date?

I cant do tenting, so looks like I will have to book some sort of accommodations to make this

but im reluctant to do anything right now, as im not 100% where I will stand with REV, I really hope I can have her ready by May

but im just not 100% sure sadly, so I dont want to book something only to find out I cant make it, or the situation changes in someway (say if someone else puts me up in their boat or something! not the first time thats happened )

No, there'll probably be space even up to the night before in a Premier Inn, I'm just aware that it wouldn't get much (or any) cheaper than it is now. I'm sure there will be some local Airbnb options too.

ah good to know  

(hopefully things dont come down to a last minute thing the night before but you never know!)

[BorniteIdentity]

The location isn’t ideal for hotel stays, sadly. It’s about 8 miles from Ipswich along B roads and you’ll almost definitely have to arrive under your own steam.

I will see you all at some stage that weekend but am unsure of my movements as yet. 

[Amishtat]

If we haven't moved by then I'll be up for this. Only about forty minutes away (currently) so rude not to really

Thanks for that. Booked. I assume we will be treated to a Scottish High Calorie Breakfast Buffet (taste the corners) on one of the mornings.

[Eyersey1234]

Sorry I won't be able to attend this time, Mrs Eyersey and I are in Dover about a week later and finances won't allow both. 

[DarrenKC53]

I'm new here, but hopefully I can come along on one of the days as I'm not far from Ipswich
