Last year I think we went for 11am to give us a 2.5hr drive until lunch and then a similar drive to the campsite giving a 5.30 ish arrival and thus plenty of time to set up tents in daylight before heading off for Noshingtons and Fermented Vegetable Juice.

Hi Janis,

Southport would be a pretty huge detour. There may be a few more people travelling from the Birmingham area, if you could get down there...?

cheers
