+House Of Boo Posted April 14, 2008 Share Posted April 14, 2008 Hello Geocampers!! Just a quick note to confirm that COC is happening this year from Friday 6th June to Sunday 8th June 2008 in the Corfe Castle area. The campsite has been sorted and the finer details tweeked. Hopefully a page will go live this week giving full details! So, as is the annual tradition, lets start praying for sunshine!!

+House Of Boo Posted May 15, 2008 Author Share Posted May 15, 2008 Just a quick note to advise that people should have to pay a £15.00 deposit - no one should be asked for a £5.00 booking fee. If anyone has been charged this £5.00 they should be able to get a refund (i.e. ask to take it off the final bill). If anyone else (apart from the Phillimore Clan) have had to pay this fee please can you contact me and let me know. Cheers!! So what is the general concensus - is the campsite going to be overrun by cowboys or overrun by indians - or will there be an equal split?? Quote Link to comment
+Alibags Posted May 15, 2008 Share Posted May 15, 2008 should have to pay £15, should NOT have to pay £5?! I am all confused. Nowt new there then. Anyhow, I have booked my place and nobody mentioned anything about money at all. Injuns, by the way!! Quote Link to comment
+keehotee Posted May 15, 2008 Share Posted May 15, 2008 So what is the general concensus - is the campsite going to be overrun by cowboys or overrun by indians - or will there be an equal split??

+BareClawz Posted May 21, 2008 Share Posted May 21, 2008 I will now definately be picking up another 17 poles. Just got to get them peeled and ready now. So there is a very good chance I'll be there plus one other too. Clawz Quote Link to comment
