Andy, just noticed your previous request for Gazebos. I have two, though not the robust 'EAZY-UPS', I'm afraid, but a goodish size. Big enough for us to shelter from the sweltering sun.... or rain

Cheers Mark..That would be great if you could bring one.........Just need to get a banner made now saying who we are.......There is a shop in Chepstow that can do this I believe...Will just check with Mate to make sure he is OK with me getting one made....

Have two Andy, though don't really match. One square and big enough to drive a car under, which'll be good for a banner, the other a hexagon. Good luck with the banner

Unfortunately, I have to drop out. I've been informed by "The Boss" that we shall instead be staying in a castle in Morpeth that weekend. Oh well, roll on 2013.

1,000bhp 100mph J.C.B.digger! That's nuts!!

Looks to be a really great family day out. I'm looking forward to the F1 hovercraft.

I'm assuming the 18 44ton arctics aren't sharing our track!?
