long story, but basically I've booked the caravan on my card, and received the booking form etc from the site. Sian doesn't finish uni in lincoln till about 4pm on friday, and from there its about a 6hour drive without traffic, so the earliest we'd be arriving at the site would about 10ish (assuming there were no delays etc). I contacted the site office and they said they'd need me to be there much earlier than that with my card and the booking form to get the key for the caravan, and been as though there's going to be other people staying in the van then I need to be there earlier to get it set up etc. We thought about Sian maybe coming down on the train later on, but the timetable and cost is shocking, so can't do that!

Gutted :cry:
