This years' event is shaping up to better again!!! :D

We have arranged catering all weekend.
For those of you who don't like cooking, breakfast will be available every morning :D

Kay Drury from MiniWorld magazine will be over to do a piece on the event for the magazine.
Also, Mike Price from Birmingham and Dave the carpet guy will be over again.

We're working with some other traders from the UK to come over too.

I'll be posting the entry forms at the weekend so be sure and get them in ASAP as it's only 8 weeks away :D

Fair play to Joclynn kelly and all her people, we will now have a mini race night on the saturday night. It was confirmed yesterday that there is power in the big green shed at the top of the campsite so we will be able to set it up in there

All proceeds from the races will go to the temple street children's hospital fund :D :D

What is the story if you can only make one of the nights or possibly only a day visit?

Hi Dave

Your qustion is very relevant, :D

same as last year, if you arrive in a mini on saturday and stay for the rest of the event, the cost is the same, reason being, the costs of the weekend are only ammounted on the saturday and sunday of the weekend. If you can only attend on the sunday with the mini there is a day cost into the show of €12.50 plus €5 per passenger

If you have any querys or curcumstances outside of these there is a contact no on the flyer and on the entry form itself

I hope this puts some light on your question :D

There will be a wide range of kids there. In fact our two, aged 12 and 10, look forward to the camping every year as they meet up with the other kids they've met in previous years.

Just to add to Billy's post re kids, they managed to find a black mud swamp last year, so bring plenty of spare clothes...

Really looking forward to this, thanks Joe, Laurna and Joe, more information about the race night will be added later....
