+John Stead Posted September 3, 2007 Share Posted September 3, 2007 In my diary - if you will accept a day visitor. I sound a great site for those of you hardy enough to camp - hope it goes well. Quote Link to comment
+Us 4 and Jess Posted September 3, 2007 Share Posted September 3, 2007 Are caravans allowed on the site? M Quote Link to comment
+PopUpPirate Posted September 3, 2007 Author Share Posted September 3, 2007 Caravans most definitely welcome! Hookup for all. Looks a cracking site, with pub on site and full facilities. Quote Link to comment
+rutson Posted September 3, 2007 Share Posted September 3, 2007 I'm confused! Fri-Sat is one night, is it the whole weekend? Quote Link to comment
+The Cache Hoppers Posted September 3, 2007 Share Posted September 3, 2007 It's the whole weekend Fri-Sun, 2 nights, 3 days. PUP has updated the listing to clarify. Woohoooo! Brrrrrrr! Where's the fan heater? Quote Link to comment
+PopUpPirate Posted September 3, 2007 Author Share Posted September 3, 2007 http://www.comet.co.uk/cometbrowse/product.do?sku=262854 Got one and it's ace BUT statistically October is as warm as May, therefore warmer than Easter. http://www.metoffice.gov.uk/climate/uk/2006/index.html Check out the caches towards Clitheroe and Pixelation ain't far away Secret Blue Lagoon is a good central point to spread out from, with the nice Cross drivebys around.

+PopUpPirate Posted September 4, 2007 Author Share Posted September 4, 2007 Must state from the outset that after organising Snowdonia, and helping Liane with Shrops, this will be a lot less organised... I'm knacked!!! So it should be a nice relaxing do! Can't promise that I won't pop a few new ones out, but don't expect an Eddies Metal Mission or a Philosophers Stone Quote Link to comment
+HazelS Posted September 4, 2007 Share Posted September 4, 2007 Pixelation ain't far away[/size] Pixels is a dead nice walk - one of my faves ever I think! Quote Link to comment
+PopUpPirate Posted September 6, 2007 Author Share Posted September 6, 2007 Hope you can make it! Short notice on this one as everyone has probably seen - 4 weeks till camp! Gonna drive up to Longridge tonight and check out a day event venue. Fab area, with huge historical significance at Ribchester nearby. Quote Link to comment
+The Great Redmondo Posted September 6, 2007 Share Posted September 6, 2007 Paul can't make this one 'cause he's got gigs booked. Quote Link to comment
+The Cache Hoppers Posted September 6, 2007 Share Posted September 6, 2007 (edited) Paul can't make this one 'cause he's got gigs booked. Edited September 6, 2007 by The Cache Hoppers Quote Link to comment
+HazelS Posted September 6, 2007 Share Posted September 6, 2007 Paul can't make this one 'cause he's got gigs booked. Does that mean you're going to be brave and tow the van up yourself, or are you going to sit at home and wish you were out with us? Quote Link to comment
+The Great Redmondo Posted September 6, 2007 Share Posted September 6, 2007 Does that mean you're going to be brave and tow the van up yourself, or are you going to sit at home and wish you were out with us? Funny that H, 'cause I was thinking that I'm due a few days off. Trouble is then I'll feel bad 'cause Paul wants to come but just can't. Dilemma, dilemma. Quote Link to comment

+PopUpPirate Posted September 11, 2007 Author Share Posted September 11, 2007 5 hidden yesterday, day event info on cache page too. The 5 hidden are in Ribchester, where the day event is. A must-visit location, with loads of visible history. Quote Link to comment
+PopUpPirate Posted September 25, 2007 Author Share Posted September 25, 2007 A couple of people have been requested £45 payment, this is wrong, it should be £35 and this includes hookup and a nice posh site with posh bogs and night entertainment. BARBARA is the person to ask for if you get charged the wrong figure, just an oversight they assure me Tis the weekend after next... getting excited! Quote Link to comment
