Awesome stuff. Pretty direct route for me and lovely A roads at that :sun:

Perfect. There is a campsite right next to Ocknell pond or, as mentiond, free (I think) camping at The Plough Inn. I know where I'll be :beer: :beer: :beer: :beer: :beer: :beer: +1 more for luck :beer:

Camping isn't free but it's in no way expensive. And the beer indeed is very good

I know the beers top notch, been in there a few times

I have a tent and also another fire pit thingy...

Haven't camped since my teens...

Getting too old and used to my comforts.

Might see if there's a nearby 5* hotel??

Walk on the wild side.....it will make your next 5* hotel seem that extra bit nicer

. People just brought their own meat and I did a lot of the cooking

I did a lot of the eating. I did pass on the Barbecued Nachos though. PMSL

too posh to pitch :think:                       

Nuffink posh about me mate... :no:

Hmm back to the forest for a day, could be done and could be interesting.

I'm pretty sure that date will clash with my motor club's annual grass autotest so I'm 99.9% not going to make it.

I'll vouch for that

FYI, spoke to Adam's dad earlier; Caravans are £20/night, pitch your own tent is £10/night.

 

Numbers for those who want either would be good.

 

I'll pop down and see Adam around the third of Jan and clarify the details

Sweet. Me and Zee will be camping.
