hammer5 Posted July 21, 2010 Posted July 21, 2010 (I hear there's a couple of lads there from stockport!) can't be to carefull. I wouldn't worry about them lads from Stockport nicking stuff (they aint to bright from that side of town) - what you do need to worry about is (how can i say it) let's say a good solid padlock for the tent and a wine bottle cork should suffice!BB Quote
TC Posted July 21, 2010 Posted July 21, 2010 I wouldn't worry about them lads from Stockport nicking stuff (they aint to bright from that side of town) BB Feck Me Pot, Kettle.

Northern monkey Posted July 21, 2010 Posted July 21, 2010 What time are you lot getting there for? N which station d'you want me to go to? Quote
Guest Posted July 21, 2010 Posted July 21, 2010 Penrith is a main line and easier for getting to and from quickly (straight across the A66). and you will probably get there before windermere, as you stay on one more stop, after Oxenholme, otherwise its waiting for an additional train, also traffic in Windermere is likely to be heavy this weekend due to the Air show.you never know we might get a flyby....Gareth's coming up Thursday eve.. Helen, Callum and me Midday Friday. same with Carole (Wiggleit) Quote
TC Posted July 21, 2010 Posted July 21, 2010 What time are you lot getting there for? N which station d'you want me to go to? Liase with frankie, NM he's knows the local area. I'll just fit in with whateverFeck me Penrith is £10 more for a return, thats mad its shorter time on the train Quote
