MLUKFC Camping trip??

[Heli]

With the hot summer approaching, and still no sign of having a Meat Loaf convention, what about having our own little camping trip??

Dunno when, where, how, why, or what....but that is why this thread is here.

If anyones interested say so, and we can work out where would be best for everyone, when (which month, how many days, which days...weekend/weekdays etc...).

What do you think?? :D

[JanT]

In theory it's a brilliant idea. Would be interested, depending on when and where.

[Heli]

Theres so many great spots in the country....it's just finding somewhere easy for everyone.

I would like somewhere by the sea....just as my two cents! :mrgreen:

I know the coast will be difficult to get to for some people, but what you rek?

[JanT]

Well by the sea suits me fine, I live at Blackpool.

There are some decent camp sites over here.

[Heli]

Blackpool sounds very good to me! Do you know of many nice camping sites around there??

[JanT]

I know a man who does :D I'll phone him now.

[RadioMaster]

i actually thought about connecting this to the nov show in wembley. but camping in nov might be a little hard to do. lol

In theory I'm up for it :up:
(must be in aug or sept for me)

[Heli]

August is good for me...althought early mid august....i'm busy in liverpool at the end of that month!

[MeatGrl1]

One slight prolem... I do not do camping :shock: !!

I need a steady bed and a bathroom !

[Heli]

They'll be bathrooms; no weeing in the bushes, and they have showers etc.

But as for a bed, you can get those fantsatic blow up beds now which are better than real beds! :P

Oh come on, it'll be a laugh!

[SamCat]

Me too!! Unless its got ***s i dont go and i dont do caravans either!!!

[JanT]

Windy Harbour Holiday Centre

http://www.windyharbour.net/touringandcamping.asp

They have disabled facilities and Rally Rates for Group Bookings.

What do we think?

[MeatGrl1]

I'm not disabled :shock: !!!

Just said I need a bed and a bathroom !

[SamCat]

Dont worry we'll find a b and b!!

[JanT]

I'm not disabled :shock: !!!

Just said I need a bed and a bathroom !

:lmao: I wasn't implying you were Emma, I'm just thinking of folk less fortunate than ourselves and considering that not every member of the MLUKFC might be able bodied.

[Heli]

It mentions plenty about Caravans, but i dont know what the situation is with tents?

[JanT]

It does tents too :-)

http://www.ukcampsite.co.uk/sites/results3.asp?search=Windy+Harbour&by=sitename

[Monstro]

It mentions plenty about Caravans, but i dont know what the situation is with tents?

They're those canvas thingys with poles, bits of string and zips.

[JanT]

They're those canvas thingys with poles, bits of string and zips.

Yeah, and if you listen really early in the morning it sounds like it's raining on one side. Sounds like a really heavily concentrated downpour. Only lasts a couple of minutes though then stops. :shock:

[Monstro]

One slight prolem... I do not do camping :shock: !!

I need a steady bed and a bathroom !

And a settee to crawl onto in the morning still wrapped in the duvet!!!!!!!!

[Heli]

They're those canvas thingys with poles, bits of string and zips.

:bleh:

Oh so the thing that you're going to be in when I attack you with a bucket of water!! ! :twisted:

[Monstro]

ooooooo, water fight, bring it on girly!!!!!!!!!!


The post your thoughts thread's got a lot to answer for!!!!!

[RadioMaster]

the more i think about it, the better it sounds....
that sounds like a really nice idea
(am I repeating myself?)

[Heli]

I've been trying to think up activites to do! It's gonna be great! New one which I'm definitely gonna try and sort out is a scavanger hunt! We did it at the last Queen convention with hysterical results!

Water fights, drinking games, scavanger hunt, twister tornements......other games that can be done outside.....football, rounders.....whatever anyone fancies really!

[RadioMaster]

how about an outdoor karaoke? :lmao:

[Heli]

LOL! We can try :mrgreen:!

Although i doutb you could shut me up for singing after a few! lol

[Betty]

Did I mention that I´m coming over in August? :cool:
Oh, yes I did... Just last night :whistle:

[Heli]

:D! Perfect! You can join us then?! (hint: the answer is yes ;) )!!

[JanT]

If it's going to happen in August, wherever it is we're planning on staying need to know in good time. :shock:

[Betty]

:D! Perfect! You can join us then?! (hint: the answer is yes ;) )!!

I hope so!! That´s as close as it gets to a yes ;)
Would love to join you though!

[Heli]

Yes....August is too quickly snapped up....right, I suggest everyone PM's everyone they want to/think can make it!

Also ask if they have any other preference as to where they want to go...not everyone may want to go to Blackpool. Anywhere that is easiest to get to is good for me! :mrgreen:

[MeatGrl1]

And a settee to crawl onto in the morning still wrapped in the duvet!!!!!!!!

:lmao:

Michael, You !!!!!!!!!

:shock::shock::shock::shock:

[Monstro]

God that photo's tempting me.........................

[Heli]

Ooo what photo :D!!

[Monstro]

Ask MeatGirl lol

Hint, when crawling onto said sofa first thing in the morning make sure nobody's playing with their camera!!!!

[Heli]

:lol: Fab!


Right back on topicish....Michael, you're from down south, is Blackpool easy for you to get too, or do you want to look at being a bit closer??

I don't want location to be a problem for anyone.

[MeatGrl1]

:doh::bleh:

We will not be going there and Michael you will not show that damn photo or you are dead ! OK !

:oops:

[RadioMaster]

best thing for me would be close to one of the london airports (gatwick best, as flight is 68€, but flight to blackpool is 244€ :shock:)

Other possibility would be if anybody could give me a lift.

[Heli]

I was thinking about what if we get a mini bus from london and drive it to whichever campsite, cause tbh a train to london is cheaper for me than to liverpool, so maybe we all meet up there?? Although I don't know who the driver is gonna be.

Obviously we all pitch in money wise for the hire and petrol!

If anyone wants to drive, pm me and i'll start looking into sorting things out!

We definitely need more feedback about where people want to go....the beach, the countryside, the nearest pub :-P! Whichever! :mrgreen:


My god, I'm actually getting really excited about this now :D!

[Monstro]

:doh::bleh:

We will not be going there and Michael you will not show that damn photo or you are dead ! OK !

:oops:

But those Pj's Emma, wow!!!!!!

[Monstro]

:lol: Fab!


Right back on topicish....Michael, you're from down south, is Blackpool easy for you to get too, or do you want to look at being a bit closer??

I don't want location to be a problem for anyone.

Anywhere's ok with me as long as they hire caravans or mobile home thingy's

[Heli]

So you'd rather caravan it rather than tent it??

[RadioMaster]

germany, near my flat :p

[Monstro]

So you'd rather caravan it rather than tent it??

I love tents but there's another reason lol

[Heli]

You scared of creepy crawlies :twisted: :P

[RadioMaster]

discussing the whole thing in chat right now:
Newest plan: everyone comes over to Germany

[Monstro]

Only if you fall into that bracket lol

[Lord Kagan]

Stick me in as a maybe

[Betty]

Keep the discussion alive guys...
My offer still holds!

[SW31]

sounds good have a couple of tents - one that would fit about 8 people in but the wife would be with the 2 emmas in b & b. aug 18 out for me at wedding also new footi season starts so have too watch dates but well up for it did it years ago when doing youth work lol


did someone say waterfight ---------------------- boys v girls id say so

oh just thought will be in blackpool last week of augs staying at the plesure beach

[Heli]

Right, I propose:

Blackpool August 8th-10th (Wed-Fri). Tents mainly, but we can sort out Caravan and B&B for anyone who likes their comfort.

We can have a trip to all the blackpool attractions, picnic on the beach, games, waterfights, scavanger hunt, bbq etc etc.

We can do two sorts of services....1: (this is only if someone is willing to drive), hire a mini bus to take anyone from the south or travelling to the south, up to blackpool as trains will be expensive.
2: meet up at the blackpool trainstation to share a taxi to the campsite.
Or anyone is free to just drive.


Right, this is only an idea to work from. Everyone seems to want to just go with the flow, so here's a base to work from. ANyone got any problems with this?

[RadioMaster]

didnt we choose to go to Germany, north sea coast?

[Heli]

Well you workout some sort of plan for that and then out of the two "packages" we can let everyone decide. I'm up for either really :mrgreen:

[christa]

I may be up for it heli if i can get my parents to have my kids, but i will NOT sleep in no piggin tent! been there, done that, got the damn t shirt. Caravan yes, tent NO.

[Heli]

Oo no, you should bring the kids with you! :mrgreen: It won't be all adult fun i'm sure!

But i will look into caravan hire too ;)

[The Flying Mouse]

:twisted: Personally, i'll sign up for the TENT version 8)



















Providing the tent is made out of my bedsheet in my room at the B&B



What do I look like? Nuts? :wtf:

[Heli]

what about a caravan.....i'll meet you half way?? ;)

[The Flying Mouse]

what about a caravan.....i'll meet you half way?? ;)


:twisted: So............


You say Blackpool tent.


I say Liverpool hotel.


You say meet you half way.....................
























So that puts us all in a caravan on the outskirts of Preston :wtf:


You REALLY know how to throw a good time Heli :nuts:

[Heli]

i'll put you down as a maybe then ;) :mrgreen:

Well, i suppose if noones really bothered, we can just let the idea rest. I'm not all that fussed :mrgreen:

[Betty]

Not sure if the coming over to Germany idea still exists...
Anyway, found a lovely place for camping
http://www.camping-wremer-tief.de/1.html
Sorry, I know it´s only in German...

It´s as close as possible to the North Sea. Not very far away from Bremerhaven.
It doesn´t offer caravan hires, so just tents will be possible, but it´s really cheap!!
6,80€ per day!
And it really is a lovely place!
I visit that place quiet often myself, just to enjoy the view and great fresh air.

Well... just my two pence here :D

EDIT:
I have no clue if the little swim fun adventure thingy still exists... better, if it´s still opened!
The water slide is still there, I´m just not sure of you could actually use it lol

[RadioMaster]

I'm up for that!

[The Flying Mouse]

i'll put you down as a maybe then ;) :mrgreen:

Well, i suppose if noones really bothered, we can just let the idea rest. I'm not all that fussed :mrgreen:


:twisted: I really need to put a sign up when am pulling your leg don't I Heli :wink:

I'm in for the caravan option at Blackpool.

Think it would be a blast 8)

[MeatGrl1]

Yes me too.
I refuse a tent !!!

:lmao:

[Heli]

:twisted: I really need to put a sign up when am pulling your leg don't I Heli :wink:

I'm in for the caravan option at Blackpool.

Think it would be a blast 8)



Yes, especially when i'm tired you do! (P.s. and expect to be picked on by me in the water fight for being cheeky :twisted: )

[djfierce]

ok looks like me, michael and the baby are keen for the blackpool thingy so christables please bring your kids so i'm not the only one ;)
As for the germany thing it sounds great and i would say yes but for next year just a little too short notice for me :( sorry guys

[RadioMaster]

VERY nice!

hope a few of the members can get sleep when casey's around! :lmao:


;)

[Betty]

Not sure if I can do the Blackpool thingy though :?
But I´ll let you know in time!

[Heli]

I keep looking at ways to get to Bremen, but it's a bit too tricky really. Like Anji said, next year will be better i think! :D We'll test the water this year in Blackpool and then move it along next year to Germany! ;)!

[djfierce]

VERY nice!

hope a few of the members can get sleep when casey's around! :lmao:


;)

She was the perfect baby before you arrived Rj :bleh: ;)

What can i say, she was bowled over by your charm :lol:

only kidding hun, it was great to have you and look forward to seeing you again ;)

[SW31]

ok so that means i can bring my kids too --what fun checking dates now to see if ok how far campsite from train station ? & how much to pitch tents.

[JanT]

<scratching head> so is it Blackpool or Germany then? (One I would be able to do, the other I won't.) :oops:

[Heli]

Blackpool now i think :D!

Right, give me a day or two and I'll start sorting stuff out...prices, travel, etc etc etc...i just need to know numbers now! Who's going and how many in each group :)!

[samurai7]

If I can definitely be home by early-mid afternoon on the 11th I might be persuaded (have to gig in the night).

I haven't got a tent though, and can't be arsed buying one, so will have to crash with somebody, but I'm sure you'll all be fighting over that honour! :p

:cool:

[sexyeyes_jo]

me and my mum are definately up for that camping trip where abouts in blackpool are we all meeting up? and is any1 hiring caravans cause we're not bloody staying in a tent lol and is it definately on the 8th till the 10th of august? oh btw im definately up for the water fight lol

[djfierce]

yeah due to littlun only being a year old we will only go if there are caravans or something available.

[tinkerbell]

sounds like fun.....maybe

[SW31]

you comming over t you can bring the clan over aswell

[Monstro]

That week will set you back 350 quid for a caravan.................would we be better off somewhere slightly away from a major tourist attraction? From previous experience with you lot we do kinda make our own entertainment, do we need town to visit?

[tinkerbell]

Whoa thats steep:shock:

[SW31]

true a place in the middle of nowhere would do me

[Monstro]

School holidays

[Heli]

That week will set you back 350 quid for a caravan.................would we be better off somewhere slightly away from a major tourist attraction? From previous experience with you lot we do kinda make our own entertainment, do we need town to visit?



I agree. i had that thought...Blackpool at that time might be a bit too busy for us.

Any other ideas?! Theres loads of great places near me on the east coast!

[Monstro]

[tinkerbell]

Where the heck is that??

[SW31]

But any suggestions are great! :mrgreen:

[Heli]

Wow, yes WHITBY!! It's beautiful there! Great place!!

[tinkerbell]

:cool:

Sean, if I end up coming (just negotiating to see if it's practical at the moment) I've got a spare tent I can bring for you... bad news is it's a two-man tent, so only just about big enough for one person, but the good news is it's bright blue and says VOLVIC all over it, so you won't have any trouble finding it in the dark when you've been on the lemonade...

2nd: http://www.robinhoodcaravanpark.co.uk/index.html
Plenty of attractions (apparently) and it's only a drive from the beach.

Caravan Hire Prices (http://http://www.robinhoodcaravanpark.co.uk/page5.html)
Tent and Tourers Prices (http://http://www.robinhoodcaravanpark.co.uk/page5b.html)


----------------------------------------------------------------------

Joint 2nd: http://www.manorhousewhitby.co.uk/tourism.html
Also near the coast...i like the look of this place as much as the one above, maybe even more so although it does seem in the middle of nowhere. It is a lot cheaper though.

Prices for all (http://http://www.manorhousewhitby.co.uk/about.html)

----------------------------------------------------------------------

and 3rd, cause it's the cheapest i've seen: http://www.klannen.freeserve.co.uk/

Tent/Tourers Prices (http://http://www.klannen.freeserve.co.uk/tourer_priceguide.htm)

---------------------------------------------------------------------

So what would everyone prefer? A bit pricer and nicer, or the cheap place where the post office is a local attraction! :mrgreen:

[samurai7]

is there a clubhouse? does it have entertainment? :)

[Heli]

is there a clubhouse? does it have entertainment? :)

The first one does.....Ooo you should so try and get a booking there!! How perfect would that be!! :mrgreen:

If that happens i think we could safely say that we have the beginnings of a proper Meat Loaf convention! :D

[Mick Loaf]

I'm up for the camping, and lots of Booze.

And the first one suits fine.

[RadioMaster]

is there a clubhouse? does it have entertainment? :)

give him a few bottles of beer and youve got youre entertainment :p clubhouse or not :))

clubhouse sounds nice though, didnt we plan something karaoke like for wembley that didnt happen then for whatever reason?
May do that now
(I know a certain person whos still owing me one 'paradise' :p)

[Heli]

I'm up for the camping, and lots of Booze.

And the first one suits fine.

Great! :D!!

I'll wait for a few more people to say they're up for it and for which campsite (I'm rooting for the first one too, Mick!), and then we'll go from there....hopefully start enquiring about booking in the next week maybe?? :-)

[Heli]

(I know a certain person whos still owing me one 'paradise' :p)


Who's that then? :whistle::wave:

[RadioMaster]

the first one looks very nice, especially the bar :))


Im up for that one :up:
(youll get my confirmation next week, still a 10% possibility I cant come and I want to have that out of the way first)

[Heli]

the first one looks very nice, especially the bar :))


Im up for that one :up:
(youll get my confirmation next week, still a 10% possibility I cant come and I want to have that out of the way first)

Fab! Well, i'll be keeping my fingers crossed for you! :pray:

[JanT]

Hmmm... I just read "Bookings can ony be accepted for families and couples"

Suppose we can go in as one large family and say "our dad got about a bit"

[Heli]

We can say we're a family.....it's not as if we're a big group of 21 year olds is it?

We're of all ages...especially if some of the loaf sprog are coming, they wont turn us away :P!

[samurai7]

The first one does.....Ooo you should so try and get a booking there!! How perfect would that be!! :mrgreen:



that's what I was thinking ;)

[RadioMaster]

maybe somebody should call them, if they make us a special group offer. (maybe one corner of the park for ourselves)

[JanT]

maybe somebody should call them, if they make us a special group offer. (maybe one corner of the park for ourselves)

That's an idea, see if they do discounts for block bookings. But we'd need numbers first.

[MeatGrl1]

I AM STILL NOT STAYING IN A PIGGIN' TENT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

:bicker::shock:

[Heli]

That's an idea, see if they do discounts for block bookings. But we'd need numbers first.

Yes, I'll ring up but only when we have atleast 10 definite numbers.

And with those numbers I want to know who's tenting it or who's caravaning it! :-)

[Heli]

I AM STILL NOT STAYING IN A PIGGIN' TENT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

:bicker::shock:

Emma.....we get the point.....hence why there is an option to stay in a caravan.....now all you have to do is find someone to put up with you for a couple of nights.

It's gonna be best if people bunk up; otherwise it'll be a bit pricey.

[JanT]

Emma.....we get the point.....hence why there is an option to stay in a caravan.....now all you have to do is find someone to put up with you for a couple of nights.

It's gonna be best if people bunk up; otherwise it'll be a bit pricey.

Was thinking that too. There'll only be me from my end going. Six in the same boat = £150 ÷ 6, that means errrrrrrmmm..... cheaper.

Would work at £25 each if there were six of us sharing

[MeatGrl1]

Well give me a ball park figure... As I have Florida at the end of the month so it's sort of iffy if I can come but with a price I can work on then I'll see what I can do :cool:.

[Heli]

Was thinking that too. There'll only be me from my end going. Six in the same boat = £150 ÷ 6, that means errrrrrrmmm..... cheaper.

I'm started to get tempted by a caravan now! :lol: I wish I could predict the weather. Plus it'd be so funny all being in a caravan together!

But no...I have to tent it! It'd be too much of a laugh! :mrgreen:

[Heli]

Well give me a ball park figure... As I have Florida at the end of the month so it's sort of iffy if I can come but with a price I can work on then I'll see what I can do :cool:.

The bare minimum you would have to pay (thats if you were sharing a 2 bedroomed caravan with six sleeping) would be £25 for the two nights.

[MeatGrl1]

Awesome I'll see what I can do Heli :cool: .

[Heli]

Good good! :D

[Hypnobabe]

Well I really really want to come, but I have to wait and see when I'm going to have my holiday booked... if it doesn't clash, I'll be coming, and I'll be IN A TENT!!!!

No fun camping if you don't do it properly :mrgreen:

[JanT]

if it doesn't clash, I'll be coming, and I'll be IN A TENT!!!!

No fun camping if you don't do it properly :mrgreen:

Tent would be more fun, but I have no tent so have no choice. Am also guessing caravans and tents would be away from each other so we'd be split :(

[Heli]

I think my dad said we have a 5 man tent...i'll have 4 places spare if anyone wants to share. :mrgreen:

i might be wrong though, so i'll have to check.

[Chris]

I will find out on monday but it looks like i shall be there in my little tent!

[SW31]

scaborough full of steep hills ?,whitby better 199 steps & has a bat connection

[Heli]

The Manor House Farm Campsite, or another whitby site you could reccomend?

Thing is, I doubt we'll be doing an awful lot. Scarborough has plenty nice attractions and we're closer to the beach there, so it's not so much of a trek to get down there...where as Whitby we'd be using cars alot.

But if you can convince me otherwise; I'm open for anything :mrgreen: :-P

[SW31]

the manor house is in hawkster a few miles out of whitby,i would suggest the youth hostel all indoors has lots of differant types of rooms from 2 bed >10 bed dorms & loads of room inside & out to enjoy think they start at £19 per person per night for members inc brekfast tried to put link up but wont let me go to www.yha.org/uk search whitby

[SW31]

looking for some campsites near as they dont do tents

[RadioMaster]

still for tents instead of hostels, wheres the fun then?

[Heli]

still for tents instead of hostels, wheres the fun then?

Yeah, I agree. I would prefer doing the tent/caravan thing. Cooking our own food on little gas grills and bbqing it in the evening....playing footy and frizbee's outside and scaring each other in the middle of the night :-P

[Heli]

staying in a bunk bed with up to 9 other males or females

No it's a good idea, and I do appreciate it and we could even do it another time....maybe during the colder months or something...

...but I'm really up for a camping trip, in the great outdoors :)

[SW31]

c) Oooh, I know this one... TENT - taking my own

[RadioMaster]

following problem might occur:
if half of us are staying in tents and the other half are staying in caravans, we might be in different sections of the campsite, far away from each other.

Is there one of those places, which would give us like one corner of their area where we can do what we want, put caravans and/or tents or whatever.

Someone should ring them
Work for you heli :p

[SW31]

I should warn people that, alledgedly, I snore. Well, i say snore. I actually make a noise reminiscent of 500 wilderbeast charging majestically across the plains!!! I can confirm this as i have woken myself up by snoring in the past!!

[JanT]

Company I work for is going through restructuring and the week of the camping trip is smack in the middle of the three week slot for expressions of interest, applications and interviews for the new jobs in the new management structure.

I'm compared a water fight with you to a job and I'm afraid the job won (only just lol).

Don't think Anji will be going but I'll check

Did I actually say that?

And I need the job to get me to Wembley, Birmingham and Newcastle for the second leg of the tour lol.

Also without the income I'd be having the bed you need for your trip over in November!!!!!

[Ageing Bat]

Now looks like I won't be able to make those dates I'm afraid, work commitments have changed, my apologies!!!!


We could have an alternative camp ....... down South, with a webcam link up?!! Now, I could be up for that - it's just that to travel up north just for a weekend slap bang in the middle of the summer holidays is just a teensy bit difficult!
