Thats my caravan booked for this year,yes I know living up on this wind swept island i should be as hard as nails and be able to camp under the stars,but i aint and i do love a nice comfy bed so i've wimped out again this year and gone for a caravan.

If anyone else is thinking to do the same i would think about it now as they are going fast.

Right wheres that carlton at time to get that gearbox out and replace the crankshaft seal.

I take it you mean you are hiring a static caravan at Billing?
I thought at first you meant you are towing one all the way from the Shetlends, now that would be commitment.

I think Ill be there, probably just Sat till Sun this year though as I havent got enough days available to take off work this year.

Didn't make it last year, but hoping to make it again this year. Quite possibly we could be in a different car to the one in 2009. Be only for the Sunday.

How come the Louts wont be at Billing?
