Default Onslow Park 2012

Onslow is looming in quickly.

We had a fantastic turn out on Saturday for the set up. The field ia all pegged and fenced out, and one Sentinel in place.

The ground is in very good condition given the current climate.

Two engines roaded over on Sunday, I believe ther will be a fair deluge roading in on Friday ( me included).

We will be there. Might bring the grandaughter with us. Can't start too early. We will be in Caernarfon until Friday so might not have much time for baking.

Yes, The sink is all fitted - more importantly it passed inspection!! well you've got 12 months to recover 'till your next donking session.

It was a pre-arranged "late" but there may have been a touch of negotiating, and yes Mr Goddard Jr isn't far away.
