Only thing i will be looking for is a lift but I can't confirm from where yet as house sale is dragging and i am just awaiting contracts being sorted etc so no clue where I will need the lift from. If things keep going the way they are the nearest padded cell 
or Surbiton, not sure which is the better of the 2

This is where it gets confusing
He might but he might not depending on his car (You can tell he's organised), but as I know your car's a bit packed as it is, I'll push for if he goes to bring his car and I'll most likely go with him so he doesn't get lost.
But then that adds another car to the equation for the parking.....
Feeling like a right nusiance for both you and Matblack atm
I'm waiting until when I see him in a couple of weekends to ask then (Erm because I have better persuasion powers in person) so I should know after that.
Apologises to both
Oh, I forgot to mention that the trains do run to Pembroke Dock, so if people want to go by train I'll arrange transport to come and pick you up 
.
Book early for those Apex fares
Oh and I'm not coming into the dock after 5 I'll be drinking by then
, but you could get a taxi to the house, particularly if there are a few of you

No problems to me, one more car or person isn't going to make a huge difference. I'm awaiting the results of Mothers negotiations with the church committee over renting the church car park.

I'll ensure that there will be definitely be a contribution to the parking if so

Not even got as far as tent arrangements for me and him yet.It's hard enough organising myself half the time let alone another

If Haly doesn't decide to take the place, do you mind if I take up this offer? I'm still trying to sort a tent out, but if I could have a spare place in yours it would save a lot of hassle.Sadgeek said:

K.
i have one like that ! £49 from Argoooss!!
Just finished reading all 30 pages...my head hurts now
Its full of images of piggy's on sticks, floppy hats, scarey flowery tents and hotels which are flat pack and call themselves tents
We're currently in the process of buying a house so unless things collide (which I doubt will happen anyway) we'll be there
I've never been camping or anything remotely similar so it could become very amusing (oh and portaloos are roughing it? )

Matblack managed to convince me to join in this - and maybe I'll even get a little more involved in events this time (most of the AT rides would have been sickmaking for me ).
I still need to be a little careful about this. Due to my eyesight problems, there's a danger of me getting garrotted by tent ropes, or punctured by tent spikes. I've done both before, so I have no doubt I can do both again. However, I have 'done' camping before (a long time ago), so I have some idea what to expect.

So, I need to organise:
- Transport. Anyone travelling past M4 J13 willing to give me a lift? (will contribute to petrol).
- Accommodation. I'm not sure about tent sharing , but that doesn't rule out something being sorted (I know camping and privacy don't go together). Or I could get my own - although I haven't got a clue how to put one up.
- A blanket.
