Yes, showers, sink and stand pipes all there, and I suspect the streams and rivers to be pretty full if the weather forcast is anything to go by :shock:

Is it a leak Alex ?

In a strange turn of events I shall be turning up with a Frontera and a motorhome. I couldnt find my tent and a swift phonecall confirmed what I suspected, my ex girlfriend got it as part of the settlement deal :wink: My brother has a tent but on pulling it out and inspecting it it is rather small for 2 people and smells of socks and Im pretty sure something or things scurried across the patio when I shook it out. So out with the Argos catalogue to have a look for a decent replacement tent and lo and behold my parents suggested I take their motorhome. Its not being used at the moment, has proper beds, a cooker, heating, hot and cold running water and a telly in case we get bored playing draughts. Cracking!

So, next question is, does anyone know if motorhomes/caravans etc are allowed on the campsite? Im thinking they should be, failing that we will park up somewhere nearby.
I also drink Port and I'm not ashamed to say it!

I'm suddenly looking forward to this weekend...

A couple of weeks ago, the heater packed up. Wasn't looking forward to a potentially cold and wet weekend and a car with cold blowers. So, this evening, I popped round to Pete's and back flushed the heater matrix... Blimey, I had to turn the heaters down on the way home.

Just the wheel bearings to do now (and wire up the CB, wire up the spot lights...)

Hmmmm..... Poodle sticks me says. If I dont bring the camper then the back of the car it is then. Lucky were both short. It may be a better option if the routes arent all around Betws-e-Coed.
