Particular favourite is from a chippy in Biggar. Stinks the car out all the way home, mind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Albeit I avoid driving up whenever possible and let the train take the strain. When we were allowed to etc etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I looked at moving to biggar when they built the new builds there as I quite fancied  it but I was overruled and the missus would have had a bastard commute. Now she’s home working permanently it’s an option for the future Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not in Crawley Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 Given the roadmap looks a lot clearer, I've taken the chance and booked a night away mid April for my other half's 40th in a fisherman's hut in Whitstable. All seems straightforward, no issues with booking, they are self contained and no other households. Just seems a bit odd that we could book. Anyway, free refund if cancelled. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its not like he’ll be making any money from fish #BrexitGag Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same for camp sites -its only a £15/£30 quid deposit at most sites. Happy to pay that to get the dates I want. esp down here - and esp this year, like last year it was full of northerners chasing the sun in the UK. Folk from Wigan one side, Preston the other.

Although we were under less restrictions than the north and I realise we're not going to do region tiering anymore - so come on the north - don't fuck it up for the rest of us (kidding, before anyone jumps down me throat) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Site Supporter Winchester White Posted February 22, 2021 Site Supporter Share Posted February 22, 2021 That's why you never meet (hear) anyone from London on your holiday, most can't afford more than a 3 man tent on their local common after paying 6 grand a month on a 2 bed flat 😄 All we get is Tracey and Terry from Essex screaming at their 4 kids to behave because they can't be arsed looking after the youngest who is being drowned by their 5 year old in the toddler pool. Seriously though, London house prices are fucking nuts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
