I've just had an e-mail from Kinky reminding me about PF next weekend. It suddenly dawned on me that A) I have no ticket, B) I have no tent & C) I have no idea where Snetterton is!

My questions are: Where can I get a good deal on a tent & when is everyone heading there? Friday or Saturday?

What else do I need to bring? Beer is obviously a necessity but in terms of food/cookers?


I'm crap at camping.....!

Oh and are there showers on site or are we just all going to end up looking (and smelling) like bearded hippies?

Hi Mate

We'll be there to set up on Thursday, with a few arriving on the Friday- most arrive on the Saturday however.

The circuit will have breakfast, lunch and dinner available on site and there are showers too!

Be good to see you there

[quote]Well as mentioned b4 in some of my previous posts we naively bought a Rage 8 berth tent off e-bay and then found this site, however tent held out first trip time will tell next weekend in scotland.

we had a few probs ie: couple of the webbing loops came off and mysteriously gained 2 holes on 2nd time of erecting but on the whole not too bad but the quality is pants!!!

I was debating on what feedback to leave and obviously OH wanted me to leave very negative comments, however me being one of those people who gets shouted at over the phone every day I decided to use my diplomatic skills.

seller replied straight away and is sending a brand new outer tent at no cost whatsoever to us.[/quote]

Those 2 second tents are pretty good, my sister took one to a car show last year and had no trouble. Avoid frame tents unless you like spending hours putting it up.
