Probably working on the 22nd, if not then the 23rd. Tamworth. So I can't get there before Saturday...at the earliest :Sad:

Once I know what's going on, if it's not too late, I'll see what my options are.

Hope your options let you make it I know one lady who would love to see you :Smile:

Hi Dick, dogs are welcome and there are some wonderful walk along the river bank which would be OK for dogs and is wheelchair friendly, just a 5 min walk from the site. this is what they say about dogs at the show.

Their quote.
Can I Bring my dog? Dogs are allowed on site, but not in the Food, Drink and Lifestyle Festival, children’s rides area or Beer Fest. All dogs must be kept on a lead and you must clear up all fouling.

Thought it may be worth putting here what is on while we are there

On Thursday about 6pm will get together for Coffee & Cake to introduce out Funsters to one another who have yet to meet.

Friday Night: Roman Themed Party Welcome Party - fancy dress, perfect start to get people introduced to Chester's historical background, roaming with the Roman's of Chester. Also a great opportunity to meet fellow Camperfest attendees!!!

Saturday Night: Sky Lattern Festival - We will be releasing latterns into the sky to light up Chester. (Other light artists to be confirmed).

Sunday: Easter Egg Hunt - A chocolate adventure for your children! Playing small games and finding clues will lead them to their chocolate prizes.
Cook in a Camper - Your chance to show Camperfest your best Campervan meal! With a celebrity judge to confirm 2011's winning camper-chef.

Sunday Evening: Leaving Party - A great way to end your Camperfest experience!
To get tickets at £25 and camp with Motorhome fun you need to have paid and have your name down before 15th April.

As I have mentioned after that if you want to stay Monday usually the Roudee Car Park is open and you can stay in the Motorhome there overnight for £1.50p.

You brave things, you! Popular too....

Booking form and cheque sent at the weekend.

As its downhill all the way from here the odds on staying the distance are looking good (Thursday pm to Monday am), but an each way bet would be advisable on that 7 furlong race against Eddie and his electric bike !!!

I have been in touch with the Organisers today and confirm that the first arrival on Thursday is 5pm and the last is 11pm as the ground will not be ready before then. (Thanks Champers):Smile:

Anyone wishing to arrive at Chester earlier in the day here are a coule of idea's

1) You can park on the Greyhound Park, near the cinima as there is no time limit there, and it is free where as on the side of TK Maxx it is limited to 3 hours and a £90 fine for overstaying. The Greyhound Park is a 2min drive on the correct road for the Race Course.


2) You could park on the Sealand Road Park and ride and get the bus into Chester a 10min bus ride. also on the correct road for the race course.


3) The Roudee car park which is across the road from the race course but then not as easy to get to the race course from there at 5pm in the evening.


These are the best options for parking with a Motorhome.

Jims Motorhome Fun badges.

Jims downloadable Fun Rally badges.

These Motorhome Fun Rally badges could be handy for any one who may not have any other Fun Badges to have on thier dash going into the Festival.
Just a thought only if you choose.

Excellent news, I have been in touch with the Festival and can now confirm that we are allowed to camp on the festival site until Tuesday 10am. Much better and makes it even better value.

Hi Carol....I'll be sending off the form in the next day or so.....will be arriving some time on the Saturday and probably heading due south on the Monday.

She might put you on the list when she returns from The Great March Expedition, but I have to say "next day or so" does seem lacking in enthusiasm. I'll put in a good word for you of course, we techies have to stick together.
