Jolly good, Howl's Moving Castle on Sat?

I need to let Matt know asap who wants to come to Newquay for easter bank holiday weekend.

Let me know.

The Noj (3rd earl of Mincington)

The Exeter crew are up for the Friday and Saturday, man, but aren't so sure about the hang ten sessions on the sunday or the monday. Cool Dude yeah!

(surf balaclava smilie)

Are you and Chris camping both friday and saturday, or just friday?

i'd say both at the moment...

if the weather's shit though i'll be hunting the nearest available caravan again!!!

Matt is going to book in the next day or so.....shall I put you guys down for fri+sat?

Or do you want to book separately closer to the time so you can see the weather?

Go ahead and just put us down for fri + sat.

Matt says:

I've been in touch with Sunnyside and they have reserved some space for us. they want to know how many cars we'll be taking so I'll need to know who wants to offer a lift and who needs to take one. Lloyd, I guess you'll be making your own way down. You can arrange with my sister if you want to pick her up on the way. You slag.

I should also point out the they want a £30 security bond to make sure we don't get rowdy or anything. I'll pay this and I had better get it all back when we leave or I'll be kicking yo ass!! And for some reason they want to see some ID, like a passport or photo driving licence when we check in. It's starting to sound more like Auschwitz than a holiday park :-) I just hope the showers aren't gas fired........

So let me know if you can offer lifts, need one, or have already arranged your car share.

Cheers.

I say:
I've added Chris and Rosie for friday/saturday night and said that you'll all get yourselves there since 2 of you live miles away and my car is full.

OK. Is there anyone/thing I can take in my car? I'll be going you way anyway...though I may leave earlier than you.

Nope.....I think we are set for space.

I'm planning on leaving at either 5 or 6am.....when were you thinking of going?

you could be transported from exeter if you like.....chris is driving....!

Gah! Bwuh...flwib. I meant on Monday...

Ah, that makes more sense.

Anyway, young Matt needs full names (not fake names) and d.o.bs from you lot.....He'll also need some cash and a security bond of £30 which we get back if no one dies. I'll get the exact amount for Chris and Rosie because they are special....for me and the king its £15

Merci

I need your addresses too please.

Ok, it turns out that we have a deal for £15 for the whole easter weekend,

Rosie and Chris you have all three nights if you want.....either way its still £15 each......buck futting campsite owners

How do you want this princely sum?

<p style="text-align: center; font-size: 11pt;">Cool, gives us options... gonna need some bank details then.</p>

Too much quoting going on in this thread. Good news about the new skin Tart, I can't wait.

That wasn't related to surfing at all was it? I'll leave you to organise your shenanigans now

by the way, is this weekend the 'run to the sun' weekend? because if it is we wont be able to move, and wind up your windows because every bastard has an uber powerful water pistol...also, traffic is shit.....dont want to put a downer on it all but best double check so we can maybe arrange sneaky travel details..like leaving in the early hours of the morning in order to avoid the queues of vw beatles and busses and kev cars which populate the town at that particular time...!

I need your number plate Tart/Rosie

And birth dates too.

chris - 13/01/81

its not run to the sun that weekend ...phew....

whats the name of the campsite?

I think its this one:

http://www.sunnyside.co.uk/

A dedicated 18-30s Holiday Village? Sounds horrible.

Noj look at the film thread; there's a mentioned film you must see.

I thought I'd move the 13/14 chat to a venue I can see at work. What plans are afoot?

Good good, we can go for a Sat/Sun type venture, as for where - North Devon gets my vote e.g. saunton / croyde / woolacombe but which one?
The Rosie will be unavailable until possibly the Sunday - further updates on this to follow.

Also we want to go for the long weekend. 27 28 29 and we definitely will need to book this. Rosie's and my vote is for Croyde and the Croyde Bay campsite (http://www.croydebay.co.uk/index.html) which looks pretty sensible... We'll give them a call and find out pricing / availablility but I think we'll need book soon.

<p style="text-align:center;font-size:inherit;">Who's game?</p>

BTW swell looks good at the moment and for the next little while. Lets hope it lasts...

Yep, sign me up for that one.

As for next weekend it kinda depends on who's going to be there; if only you and I can make the Sat then we could not camp and go to the closest place...

I can't make the 27th weekend because I'm meant to be moving house (hopefully).

Suzie's managed to shift the furniture moving fun on the 13th/14th, so we can both do that one too.

Nice work on shifting the discussion to Badgerfest King.

Check out the avatar image I stole from the site.

1.Shame about the bank holiday (but hurrah for houses) but next weekend is good. It doesn't matter where we go I guess; I've not surfed Saunton, Noj hasn't done Croyde (and will miss out) Wooly we know is busy in summer so we could get in earlyish before the rush (as long as we can find a decent campsite). Anyone got a coin?

I guess we could go down together Noj?

2.Thankyou

3.Nice

So what news of biscuits? Does anyone have any preferences?

I say let's go to Saunton; we haven't surfed there yet and we know we can entertain ourselves should it be flat (which it looks as if it will be...)

How does this sound? Do we need to sort out campsites or just turn up to our favourite (if we have one)?

Noj should I turn up at yours on Friday evening or drive there myself?

It would appear that we all three Badger Bears want to go surfing next weekend.

Yes indeedy, although the surf forecast is looking a little dubious. I vote we wait until mid-week before serious planning begins.

i don't care - im goin' in no matter what ....well unless the sea sudenly freezes over anyways....

Has serious planning begun? I have things to do on Friday day but otherwise I'm free.

serious planning has not begun here.

Not sure how good the surf reports are....

Will check again later tonight.

Well seeing as that went really badly, what say we book up for a fortnight's time, the 8-9th and go camp in Croyde whatever the weather may be.

All in favor say "streuth mate, must have rocks in yer heeed, wait a sec, is that a flamin' bonza burger?" etc...

Sounds good to me.

Gentlemen/ladies,

Anyone fancy a little surfing this weekend?

That is all

Le Noj

This saturday is the last staurday I'll have to work for a very long time...ever with a bit of luck... but I still have to do it.

Sorry.

BTW you missed a nice session on Saturday > here's King doing his Thursday Next-reme Surfing >

I could be persuaded to go again.

What are the thoughts on this weekend (22nd-23rd)? Its looking like 1-2 ft going to 1.

I'm perfectly happy to go whatever the weather.

fellow crappy surfers ....and chris...

saw this on the eyeball surfcheck site and thought it may be a good thing to hold in mind when thinking of taking our skills overseas!!!

http://www.apartment-ericeira.com/index.shtml

Looks nice.

On an almost unrelated note; last surf weekend I commented that some barely-heard music sounded like some band...gargle something...

Well I found Start Wearing Purple by Gogol Bordello so you could see what I meant.

Is there room for one more Polar Bear clan meeting?

Yes this weekend as I am working all others this month. Be there (Croyde) or be square. Camping and surfing abounds. Stay at ours Friday night if you wish. Normal servant duties shall apply to all guests. Also a naming ceremony of my bicycles could be thrown in for fun.
