Hopefully everyone has received the passes in the post and are ready to go.

some of our members are going all 3 days, some are going just 2 days but most are going just on the Sunday. So for the ones that are just going on the Sunday we are going to meet at ASDA Bodmin and ready to leave at 9.00am. We need to be in Boconnoc estate for 9.30am.

If any more are plaining to camp Saturday night can you PM me so we can let the staff know.

Good weather is booked for the Sunday only as that is all Jean would let me pay for >:) so we will just take pot luck with the weather on Friday and Saturday. :genius:

See you all this weekend.

We was but Boconnoc Estate (seeing we are the BEST MINI CLUB IN CORNWALL :genius: ) asked if we would go to the show. So it was put to a vote and it won :)

wheels was also put in the vote and only got 2 votes. Its a shame as I like Wheels but it has got very boring.
