if we all pool resources we could do a nice brekkie for us all, don't forget the hot water for tea/coffee!!!

I have already packed my stove and the frying pan and the kettle, so mine will also be available. It is only a single ring, but as it is for only me it is plenty big enough.

I'll pack my double burner as well (plus a couple of extra frying pans, fire extinguishes and brown sauce)

And never fear Steamboat phil's tea urn is always near

Bob, sizzling bacon will have you wide awake now matter how far away you are (plus my special veggie pan for those not inlcined to bacon--veggie sausages taste better as well)

Sounds like Masterchef Mayhem at the Campsite Sunday Morning

I'm leaving for Israel in a couple of hours, so the thought of a bacon butty in a weeks time should keep me going

Guy Bagley · « **Reply #207 on:** May 19, 2010, 02:07:11 pm »

SteamboatPhil · « **Reply #208 on:** May 19, 2010, 02:45:24 pm »

I think we will make a fair dent in it, as far as I can count (or that I know of) at least 10

Hi, All

Can anyone help, I have sent several e-mail's to Martin but no reply he may not be getting my mail
so I am asking anyone that can advise on below.

I am down to attend wicksteed park as a trader: modelboatbits

I have never attended this event so I was wondering about the camping facility.

Is the campsite close to where I have been allocated my traders pitch?

Also do I have to book the camping through wicksteed park website directly?

If you could kindly advise on these point's or any other information about the event
that would be great, I am really looking forward to it, Just need the good weather.

Many Thank's

Steve

I've just been on the phone to Martin, he's up to his eyes at the mo sorting out the traders' stuff

modelboatbits · « **Reply #214 on:** May 19, 2010, 07:53:24 pm »

That's great

Just had e-mail from martin, I was just having a small age related panic as I am new to this event and hope to fully have a great weekend.

Can't wait.

STEVE

Hi Steve

You book the campsite through Wicksteed it is £15.00 per night, tell them it is for the Mayhem weekend as I understand it is quite busy that weekend. The campsite is about 5 minutes walk from the lake, most of us put our boats in our cars so we get really lazy and drive. If you want to unload you gear you can park very close to the lake to do that, but the park do not like cars left there as there is a railway that runs along side the lake so it will have to be moved. There is a car parking area about 1 minute from where you can unload, so your van/car is within easy reach. The lake has a good path all the way around, so moving gear is fairly easy, do not forget your gazebo/marquee. I am getting there early on the Friday, the park are ok with us getting there early to set up so if you want to that will be ok. there is no charge for entry or parking if you are camping there

I will PM you my phone number if there is anything else you want to know give me a ring.

That's a great help, I will give you a call if only to say hello but the detail given so far is great for me.

P.S. They don't throw newbies into the lake or make them pay the first round in the pub or anythin else do they
