That works bud,  ta. But no pics or maps of the site??? Do they want people to visit??  And it so close it would be good as Black Hills is shut at the moment and Holymoorside being a little on the small side and more like a pond most of the time, could do quite well.

The desert is a massive place mate there was a lot of illegal 4x4 and bikes going there for years and now they've made something of it.its£25. For the day but I expect their first day will be busy as there are 4x4, quad and bike tracks so lots to see,.I've booked online as it reserves a space for you but you don't pay until you arrive.

Is this the place people were thinking about for a day out between Christmas and New Year ?
I would prefer a full bottle in front of me than a full frontal lobotomy. Seek not excess, God hates he who roams !
