I've just realised how local it is (its only 60 odd miles as the crow flies) so i've decided to have a sat nav adventure and I'm going "shortest route" - lets see how long it takes! Sat Nav reckons 1hr20 -I'll believe that when I see it though!

This may be a bit late but....I've sent the big gazebo down with Ray but we may be a bit short of ground pegs.
If anybody has any spares they could bring I'd be much obliged!

I'm day tripping it on Saturday and Sunday. Is there any timings anywhere with what's on during the day on both days - I wouldn't want to miss anything exciting!

Watch out for the speed cameras along the 50mph single carriageway sections of the A303 from Stonehenge westwards
If the traffic jams will let you travel that fast

I hope all you Thursday night campers have proofed your tents. Heavy thunderstorms over Glastonbury and Sparkford tonight according to the weather forecast.
See you tomorrow.

A little rain, and thunder, and lighting. nothing major. Dan has arrived. Lou has had a moth up her skirt but otherwise an uneventful evening

We will be leaving in about 45 mins.
I will be in Lilly-May towing the caravan, Gill will be in her van and Geoff Oakes will be in his Traveller!
Save us a spot!
p.s. I will be coming down the M5, off at J25 onto the A358 and then the A303. This seems to be the best route? Any opinions?

It has been raining heavily for hours !
