Thanks. Can you start a conversation with me containing your surname please? Then I can remove you from the list if Warners have not already done so.

Really grateful as it means we do not hang around waiting for someone that's never going to show up.

Thanks ... Robin

Can we please be parked on the hardstanding, reason is we need to use the mobility scooter. You parked us there last year, which was really excellent.

 

[Wightman]

Just booked and hopefully arriving before noon on Thursday - traffic dependant and how many times we get lost

If we are in the same location we can. However until we get there, we rarely know the precise layout. Please remind the marshals on arrival.

[meanders]

Just had the final list through from Warners. Now 46 of us. Small in number but of great value.

 

[lfrancklow]

Les and Chris booked . Arriving Thursday all being well.

Dont forget the Bristol Clean Air (TAX) zone is now active.
Forget entering if over 3500kg as its £100 a day and under its £9 each day!
Even if you avoid the area it will cost you more in extra fuel and the avoidance routes will be busier, so either way it will cost.

Hi All

So we'll be travelling up from Lymington area on 6th and need to overnight (free!!?) in safe layby please

Our route is A362/A361 so somewhere around Warminster would be good - we have dog so somewhere safe for her to walk/exercise would be brilliant - i.e. not somewhere directly beside main road

All recommendations greatly received and see you all on 7th

We are gentle with everyone ..... To begin with anyway!


......



Just kidding. There's no dancing or meeting around the flagpole, funny handshakes, or other initiation ceremonies. When we park you up, make the effort to introduce yourself to your neighbours and you will be just fine. Unfortunately at Shepton we will not have Jim with his tea tent, so limited opportunity for meeting up as a group of Funsters. You will be most welcome though.

Lee Fryer may be able to make a recommendation but bumping this for you anyway. However, you might get a better response by posting a new thread in the 'Local Knowledge' area of the forum with 'Overnight stopping point in the Warminster area; or similar as the title. Funster's not attending Shepton probably will ignore the thread.

Think Ive booked arriving thursday.

If you start a private conversation with me and send your surname and postcode, I will be able to confirm if you are on the list Warners have sent me. If you click on the Meanders name under my avatar on the left, then 'start conversation' is one of the options, Please do not put your details on this thread.

Just seen the show guide. We are in the same place as the last couple of years albeit probably with less allocated space. The guide is that. We get the actual space shown on arrival. At least we are not in the grand ring. Last year it was a mud bath for those in there.

Have we got the "tractor boys/girls" on standby then ?

Hopefully might dry out a bit this coming week, but return to unsettled conditions next weekend, especially Sunday not looking good at this stage.

I do not know of any parking in that area, as it is only a 2 hr run for me from Eastleigh, I go straight there

 

[meanders]

We had no issues with anyone in Fun getting off last year if I remember correctly. Those in the grand ring had a nightmare though. Entry is through one of two narrow gateways both of which were quickly churned up. At least one Autotrail hit one of the posts while sliding sideways.

We are not in there though, so again, expect no issues even if it is wet.
