Yep, we're going - we just love it.  The last couple of years has been a bit of drive though....especially last year with loads of snow and minus 15 degrees over the mountains......brrrrrrrrr.     Usually go on the Monday but gonna be tuesday this year  ;D
Did you ever stop to think, and forget to start again !!

£12 to get in this year, but you can re-coup the difference if you take a flask and sandwiches.

I'm always tempted to but a carcass from the auction, but no room in the freezers at the moment.

 My OH has packed 3 freezers with plums, apples and blackcurrents ::)  Fine if your a friut bat, but I'd like a few joints in there as well.
