Best take some waders and a dingy ..

Guys - I really hope the weather picks up .. camping at LMs in the rain is not much fun.

hopefully by the time we arrive tommorrow night after a day of sunshine it will have dried out and made the ground a good firmness for easily putting tent pegs in!

I saw Ranger Rovers being towed out of Beaujesour in 2007. Don't count your chickens...

Hmmm - X5 .. not renouned for it's cross country ability.

In 2007 we escaped from the back of the site down the track that starts in the wood.

Much better than queueing for the entrance. Although the bus going the same way held us up a bit....

I'm under no illusions as to its off road abilitys (especially having 20" alloys and sporty tyres). All i meant was that it's nice and high, hopefully meaning if we are sleeping in it we will stay dry.


I guess i'll find out this time tomorrow.

Edited to add: We were in BSJ in 2007 in the wet boggy part down the bottom (WWR enclosure) and managed really well with two Elise's and a GSXR6.

I was with WWR too. I had to move my Jag out on Sunday morning as I could visably see it sinking in the mud before my eyes!
