Title: Anyone camping next Friday night at the mart?
Post by: Anke on September 20, 2013, 08:48:00 pm
As it is a good hour and a half to drive across from here to Lanark, I was hoping to come over on Friday late afternoon get the goats settled in, and sleep in the van with the girls. Anyone else doing this, as I wouldn't want to stay there completely on my own...???

Alex and I are staying, and Avril Garrett as well.


Not sure who else, but I know Brucklay was thinking about it?

We're in the equestrian hotel across the road - hope that doesn't mean we're sleeping in loose boxes  :)

Yes - I'm either tent or car camping - can't see me arriving before 9.00 - that hotel may have a busy bar before bedtime!!

We're going for luxury and taking the caravan. Still worried about it being cold though! And slightly concerned I might not fit everything in that I need to bring....
