| Any suggestions for a place to hold the 2014 valentines meet? Ideally hard standing with electric and within easy reach of the main road network, no isolated country locations.

| Thanks Frank, someone did mention that at the weekend, I wasn't sure if it was open or not, were they not closing after we had the meet there or was that just the pub? _________________ Have you visited our Amazon Associates Store yet?Keeping Leapys boat sailing [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] | |

| Steve/Kim, we have discussed this and want somewhere nearer to the main road network, if you remember the snow drifts last year we were lucky to get there, or worse still if it snows like that whilst on site we might get snowed in At least you stand a better chance near main roads than you do with isolated country areas _________________ Have you visited our Amazon Associates Store yet?Keeping Leapys boat sailing [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] | |

| We've always wanted to go to Lady Heyes but have never got round to it... But we can't make that weekend. Weekend before or after would be great or another weekend meet? | |

| Just off the M56 at Frodsham
I know Baza, surely it can't be that bad again, don't think they could cop with the numbers, and didn't the chef get the boot?? _________________ Have you visited our Amazon Associates Store yet?Keeping Leapys boat sailing [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] | |

| - Their site says wrote:
- We have a large field at the rear of the pub beyond our own private car park. This is ideal for caravans and tents with wash facilities and electrical hook up. The field is available for camping and caravan rallies and can be booked on a per night basis.
Bit concerned about fields in February, might be frozen solid though  I have sent them an email to see if they have hard standing, I'll let you know their reply This is their web-site [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]_________________ Have you visited our Amazon Associates Store yet?Keeping Leapys boat sailing [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] | |

| give this a try mark Oxford Canal - Heyford Leys Camping Park Heyford Leys Camping Park - 01869 221665 Camp Road Upper Heyford, Bicester, Oxfordshire, OX25 5LX Not far from the the Oxford Canal & River Cherwell Tourers - Motorhomes - Tents At Heyford Leys Camping Park our family run camping park location has been established for over 30 years. Just 2 miles from junction 10 on the M40 motorway and close to the A34 junction 9 of the M40 we are ideally located to a huge range of local attractions and activities. Our whole park is located in a beautiful picturesque area, surrounded by trees, so is well sheltered from wind and rain. Grass and hardstanding pitches are available and our hardstanding pitches make us ideal for visits during the winter months, especially at Christmas, when we are very popular with campers visiting their families for the festive period. | |

try this one mark they have a barn we could have a barn dance to keep warn Been here twice before and had great meets run by Mark and Alan and a very dodgy drinking contest run by Mark and Brian (say no more) but as said they were smashing fun, the barn is fine and the restaurant food is very good. | |

| Wasn't the Grouse and Claret that the Roamers went to and it was a case of 'never again'.
Think the ground was boggy and the food was awful.
Unless it is under new management. | |
