Woosie Club

[Gagakev]

We await a proclamation on this matter from His Worthiness - King Copterman.

Think Lady Mel hit it on the head a few post back, when she duly pointed out that copterman (love that one) has had alot of responsibility over the last few years and I think it was declared that every woosie (A committee) could contribute and chuck some ideas around and see what we come up with.
I mentioned Norfolk, Gafferbill Lake district, indeed yourself around the M6.
So any more contributions folks?

 

[DaveA1]

North Norfolk or The Lakes would be my favourites.

 

[Hutch]

just reading this so can i ask if you picked a site with a rally field would you need to have an exception certificate with insurance or whatever its called to use the rally field? As there are a few sites that have rally fields dotted about the uk

Hello Chatter, I have been out of the Woosie loop for a bit, My apologies to all. Over the last few years, most of the Woosies have requested to have a site, that has some fully serviced pitches, also normal pitches.
We have found several great places, but recently some sites have not wanted to have more than 3 vans in a group. Luckily for the last Woosie fest Dusty Dog found a good site in Yorkshire and with Mel's Silver talking we managed to get the full site, next to a pub. Dates and venues are always a pain to arrange.
A Spring meet up will be great, Dave A1has suggested over his way. Melton Mowbury. But maybe towards Gloucestershire.

 

[Hutch]

Myself I would love to go back up to that site just below the lakes, Ingelton, good pub not too far away. That is if Anseo would be willing to come down,

Tariff 2023 Touring Caravan Site

www.thornbrookbarn.co.uk

We are open for any dates preferably not bank holidays but still ok with them.

Not a bad pint either. I'm open to any dates, apart from bank holidays. Trouble is Spring and early summer is peppered with them.

Hi Hutch,

I know how difficult it is to arrange meets to suit everyone (as said before - it is not possible).

Ingleton and area is doable for me if that helps your Kingliness in his endeavours to achieve the impossible.

If you do go to Ingleton there will be great changes to the site, before we left last time there was a major construction of new pitches etc. underway.

Awras Hutch.

That Thornbrook site looks very nice. Shall we assume that anyone interested declares themselves and becomes part of the organisation committee!
We would be interested.
If we want to avoid school hols and bank hols the Spring options ( Thursday to Monday; although many of us do longer) are:
20-24 April
11-15 May
18-22 May

Unless anyone is keen for March or June. Otherwise an Autumn meet?

Interested any date. At the moment.

 

[Mel]

When is the Coronation holiday?

8th May

 

[Dustydog]

We have the builders here for next 8-10 weeks then Coronation weekend is my big 70 bash. We planned to go way north shortly thereafter. Sutherland is the target with stops by Harrogate and Belford near Lindisfarne on the way up. September all month is free.
whilst FSP are desirable they are not a deal breaker for us. When were you all thinking of date wise. We can juggle things after 6 th May

Cant make a decision until the end of the month but I would favour the 18-22 May, only as it would be our wedding anniversary!!!
But as usual we will go with the majority, any of the two May dates would suit us better.

8th May

Thanks

 

[Beachball]

Just come back after a nice stay in Cumbria for a week it was very relaxing break

 

[Hutch]

Just had interest from Chris, on the Forum about our Secret clubbing There is no Secret. , Chris , you might see that Dusty dog, and Kev, have as, senior Knights of the round table a BAR in their tags, that's Bought a Round, very rare,
Dave A1,( Sir Ducktail) came along to his first Woosie fest an his contribution to the Jacobs table was astounding.
I am looking for a site for us all to meet up after May. With the help of the other Woosies, but anyone else is welcome.

Two incidents this weekend may qualify me for Woosie membership. Saturday, I took my caravan out of the storage and forgot to lift the jockey wheel.
Today, had the n/s front wheel off the car to check something with the brakes. Arriving back after a five mile test drive, I suddenly wondered what I had done with my locking wheel nut key. After frantically searching for it I suddenly spotted it… still attached to my locking wheel nut on the wheel, by sheer miracle it had stayed right there where I left it. At least I remembered to torque the wheel nuts up though! Or did I ? Might double check before I leave for work tomorrow!

 

[Grey13]

Keeping an eye. May is not bad for us. Do you mean this site?

 

[Mel]

I am struggling now until Sept. May is busy Booked an all inclusive non Caravanning holiday for June, then taking the kids camping end July then it is school hols.
But please, those who can meet up should.
Glad Chris is on board
Mel

 

[Dustydog]

It’s my big milestone in May and we will be away all month. At the moment we nothing booked for September. Happy to go wherever. North , you can’t beat the Lindisfarne area.
Lakes fine , South and West coast ok but maybe too far south for most. So you guys choose. Earlier rather than later for good weather.

 

[Hutch]

I think Mid country would probably be best as more central for everyone or maybe Welsh Wales, I don't think we have been there, Dusty when does your Scottish tour start. ?

 

[Gafferbill]

.......I'm right out of the loop for at least a couple of months
Lots of hospital visits coming up for me to deal with a problem and hopefully get it sorted.
