Hmmmm... I need to give this a lot more thought...

As it's 325 miles each way, we thought we'd make a proper holiday of it and book for two weeks... from Saturday 03.05.08 to Saturday 17.05.08, with the Mega Meet in the middle... but the cheapest static available for that period is going to be £556 (£50 deposit now, balance by end of March)!!! Shocked

If we could afford to pay in full straight away, which we simply can't, it would still be £444 for the two weeks!!!  Sad    Add to that about £200 in fuel, to get there and back plus, say, 350 miles for driving around (working on an average of 25mpg over 1,000 miles), it makes it a very expensive trip... and that's before we eat and drink, etc.!! Shocked

I'm looking for Plan B, but it's looking rather doubtful, I'm afraid! Sad
