My 1st national...a few quick questions!

Post by Sparticus »

Hiya this year wil be my 1st national with the young members...

i was wondering:

What kind of facilities are there at the site? Loo's etc

Can we choose where we camp?

AND anyone else heading from Norfolk/Suffolk that want to join myself and some other young members in a convoy?

I assume you will be coming along the A14 in which case you will pass a large Tesco around Kettering.
