OK All, I have been doing a little work into this and i was going to push ahead with it this year- but based on the ammount of notice I've decided to shelve the idea of this year and instead aim for next year. I'll add it (or shopuld i say i will ask one of the moderator team) into the April 2011 thread
Dates roughly for next years Easter Bank Holiday should be the 22nd of April to the 25th of April so those are the dates am proposing we go on.
The Location- http://www.bolmynydd.co.uk/index.htm" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
5 star camp site, hot showers, Separate toilet’s, looks really nice and the owner seems a really nice bloke from the e-mails I have had from him.
Weather- I know most will be concerned about this, the site owner has informed me that the past 3 years has been very reasonable weather wise, with very little rain. But should still be fun either way though
Cost- I'll be looking for the same sort of deal as last year which he said was about £28 each for the 3 nights, 4 days
Not sure on the need for a deposit yet- he did say it would be fine for this year to just pitch up and pay there, I will ask if he wants one though.
Location- North Wales, Near to Abersoch on the Lynn Peninsula- Camp site is ment to be sheltered by Lanbedrog hill from westerly wind's- also very close to a sheltered bay for those brave enough (or in my current case Fat enough) to go swimming in the sea.
Things to do in the area- Go Karting, Night out in town, Go to the Beach, Lots of relaxing, Meal out(Few nice restaurants there), good driving roads
Proximity to places
Beach- 10 Minute walk
Pub- 5-15 Minute stagger
Shop- 10-15 Minute walk/ drive to bigger supermarkets.
Proposed details-
Day 1
Meet at a little chef at the end of the M56 Just before the Welsh border
Drive down the A55 Along the coast to the site- set up camp- BBQ for Tea, drink beer- Pub Visit?
Day 2- Go Karting? Chill on the beach?
Meal out some were and then night out in abersoch with the rich folk?
Day 3- More relaxing- Horse riding for those who want to? Visit some places (There’s some roads that were used for a James Bond Film about 20 minutes away?)
Beach party/ BBQ / Pub Meal out?
Day 4- Late ish start- Big bbq style breakfast
Maybe a visit to the Sea life centre/ Canrfon(sp) Castle
Dinner some were pub lunch
All go our separate ways and return to our dwellings?
Equipment needed- Tent- you can share if you want
Sleeping bag
Torch / Lantern
BBQ's- we can get the throw away ones
Paper plates and plastic forks and plastic cups etc
Change of clothes
Swimming stuff (?)
And Beer/ bits of food- Cool boxes could be useful to
I am also arranging for a electric hook up and will be acquiring a plug adaptor for phones to be charged / small mini hi-fi to be used if needs be
We should take some wind breakers as well just in case and maybe a Gazebo or 2?
And some camping chairs as well.

If you interested put your names on the list- Please put if you are a Maybe
I'd estimate that you should look at around £100-200 pounds in total to cover everything with change left over there.
That’s working on the following numbers as a rough guide
£28 for camping
£60-80 for fuel around 2 tanks ish
£30 Meal out with drinks
£30 quid night at the pub
£40 quids worth of food (bbq stuff inc)
£25 of beer
£10-15 for Go Karting ish
£10-15 if we go to the swimming park/ play squash etc.
£5 I think to get into Sea life place/ castle
£20 for the pub lunch (route home) with drinks
(All prices are guide prices for 2010- inflation etc may change this)
What does everyone else think? I know that’s over the amount at the top but we don't have to do everything on there and people will want to do the own thing
EDIT: New Dates to match up with BH 20111
