Well done woosies just cracked open a bottle to celebrate

 

[WoodlandsCamper]

Thank you for the congratulations.

Us Woosies are back in the land of reality after having had lunch in London at the Palace. Lady Squirrel was introduced, shook hands and had a conversation with HRH Prince Charles, the Prince of Wales. The Duchess of Cornwall was on the other side of the room, so we didn't meet her. Other celebrities, in addition to us Woosies, included Roy Noble OBE, Felicity Kendal CBE, Patricia Routledge, and Liz Burnley OBE. The canapes included salmon sandwiches the size of Her Majesty's postage stamps.
The cost of using the thrones at the stations was 50p, however the thrones in the palace were free and more luxurious, including the soap and hand cream.
We must have looked very important and regal on the underground as people stood up and offered us their seats. It was either that or they thought we looked old and decrepit.

(Google "Diamond Champions" for the reason for the trip to London)

Hi Lady Di Di
Not sure on Stowfolot yet looks like Lady Gaga will be working the Sunday

But deffo interested in the spring bank Holiday we could perhaps start Sat 25th May and do 3 or 4 nights, what do others think and have we an idea of location?

 

[Mel]

Don't think we will do Stowfolot. Too far to come on a Friday evening; couldn't get until saturday and then back on Monday

. May half term is sort of spoken for as well, so may have to pass on the spring Woosie rally but keep us posted as some wiggle room could open up.

[Dustydog]

We're a "no show" too.It's the big birthday I don't like talking about

.
I' mindful Sir Sproket had a very long journey and poor pitch at our last gathering . I think we should seek out a venue nearer to him.

 

[Sproket]

Thank you Sir Dustydog

Unfortunately we would not be able to make the 25th / 26th of May, but we would be around from Mon the 27th onwards, so the rest of the week is free

"We" won't be doing 2013 either, 300+ miles to us. - And we like to see an area when we're 'burning' that much diesel and seeing as we saw the area fairly well last year, will use the 'diesel' for elsewhere!

But will match up some time in the future.

PS - How "BIG" is that big birthday, Dusty? - -- (Not another one going on the state?)

Hi Sir Gab (WC)
I get free prescriptions, bus pass I think but no OAP. I still get taxed to death and need glasses for reading and driving. I'm considering varifocals because I can't read the speedo and sat nav without removing my driving glasses. I never had this problem a few years ago. Must be age

It's 60

Quote Dusty --- "It's 60 "

Thank God for that Cameron/Osborne can't afford to pay any more of us!!

Here try mine with auto focus

 

[Brum1]

Really think that the venue needs to move to a more central area.

Sir Hugh Rinal
We did Poston Mill at Peterchurch last time. That's fairly central but was a long way for His Royal Woosiness and Sir Sproket.
Any suggestions??

 

[Gabsgrandad]

Midlands area? Northamptonish?
Leeds 140ish , Bournemouth 140ish, Weymouth 160ish, York 150ish, Liverpool 150ish (My Home 130ish)

That's centralish!

 

[Parksy]

Oxon Hall, Shrewsbury is a luxury park operated by Morris Leisure who also operate very well appointed sites at Ludlow and Bridgnorth.
The Shrewsury venue is the best of the three because although none of the sites have bars or restaurants there are 3 pubs within walking distance of Oxon Hall and it's close to the Park and Ride for buses to Shrewsbury and the surrounding areas. Shrewsbury is also the closest to the motorway network, just off the M6 →M54 →A5

 

[Dustydog]

How far is "an easy walking distance"

Looks a pleasant site to me. Count us in.

 

[WoodlandsCamper]

Lady Squirrel and myself have been discussing next year and decided that having been to Stowford this year we will go to a different venue next year. So probably count us in at a Woosie meet (in the Midlands?).
Merry Christmas to all Woosies, and all other posters

, plus the team at PCV magazine.

 

[Gabsgrandad]

Quote Parksy - "Oxon Hall, Shrewsbury is a luxury park operated by Morris Leisure who also operate very well appointed sites at Ludlow and Bridgnorth."

Any of the above 3 would do us (150ish for us). As long as the dates don't clash with anything else we are committed to. We will plan it into a holiday. Makes it worthwhile then.

 

[Dustydog]

120 miles for us. Will His Royal Woosieness make it?
