Re: Halloween Camp: 30th October - 1st November Winter camping beats summer camping hands down for me - nowt better than dark nights and bonfires! Yay summer's nearly over, roll on Autumn!
This camp's a no-can-do for me though, I'll be working on that weekend.

Re: Halloween Camp: 30th October - 1st November Late October and November is a favourite time of year for me. Halloween/Bonfire night, foggy evenings, the smell of decay(leaves) and the expectation of Christmas and New Year(before I get sick of hearing carols)...just Magic.   Sorry, you can get back on topic now

It Just Doesn't Work. Mind you, the Barrel at Bretton is more than a little isolated and exposed at the best of times.

True and True I must be, not just the only Welshman, but also the only 2cv'er that is tee-total and The Barrel is cetainly exposed
