  2. Me and the governor may have to attend - haven't been to any shows for a good few years and Skeggy is just up the road. Won't have the bus ready unfortunately :(

    This ain't in Skeggy no more o_O I prefer camping in nice places and don't do many shows because they're a rip :rolleyes: but this is now at a great venue and that's why it's now probably the best show going at the moment :) I reckon we'll be in again coz last year was the main event :thumbsup: and no pre book makes it even better

  13. we had to book ferry and its our holiday this year as we are staying for over a week , no one has put much up for this year thats life bud .
     
  14. Thanks for the kind words guys. I have started an official thread for this year. I lost all my email accounts so have been waiting for account re activation. Hope to see you all there again. Cheers T
     
  15. Bit of a dilemma. The two shows I'd intended going to this summer were Skeg and VW Festival at Leeds and I've just realised that they are both on at the same weekend.
    Skeg more basic and friendlier but carp toilet facilities.
    Leeds good facilities but more Max Power than camper.
    Bugger.

    Last year was brilliant, excellent location too. Toilet facilities & the cleanliness of the left a lot to be desired @VIVASKEGVEGAS - hope your paying attention!

    Im sure we're going to head over this year :)
     
  17. I mentioned the s!!t state of the toilets before last years event and they stated they would be improved, so don't hold your breath. Or maybe you should!

    I think should is the operative word ;)
     
  19. Never thought that in my entire life, that I would take a photo of portaloos but sadly, I was so impressed with Harewoods compared with Skegs. This was just a few and didn't include the ones at the camping area or the shower trailer. Going soft in my old age and need creature comforts. Well the Mrs is and I get the grief!
    @VIVASKEGVEGAS this is how it's done.

    PS could be argued that people from Leeds are full of s!!t. Hang on, the Mrs is from Leeds. I'm dead meat.
