martinmac Posted April 30, 2013 Author Share Posted April 30, 2013 Wow, just had a call from a member looking for a hotel or B&B. He cant find anywhere locally. Looks like being pretty busy. I have a few places that still have room at the moment but dont leave it too late. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

choptop Posted May 1, 2013 Share Posted May 1, 2013 Dear God, I don't ask for much in life so could I please ask that there is no rain the LakeZ weekend. Preferably temperature in the mid twenties. Anything else is just a bonus. Amen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

martinmac Posted May 1, 2013 Author Share Posted May 1, 2013 We are away from Kendal this year so the weather will be fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris`I Posted May 1, 2013 Share Posted May 1, 2013 To be fair, I think every time we've been to that pub its been nice weather - even if a little cold at times - so cant complain really. As soon as someone says it will be nice that's a guarantee it will be wet though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martinmac Posted May 1, 2013 Author Share Posted May 1, 2013 We get our own climate here due to the proximity of Morecambe Bay Sands.If you remeber last years LakeZ the rest of the country was getting battered and I was sat in my garden in brilliant sunshine. Kendal is pretty wet on days we get nothing. The pub also has heat lamps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martinmac Posted May 16, 2013 Author Share Posted May 16, 2013 Another little update, this time the raffle. I try to find prizes which are a little different soo this year, apart from a few items of local produce including the world famous Cartmel Sticky Toffee Pudding there will be a few specials. A guy I am seeing in concert tonight has kindly donated a signed cd, I cant post his name as its part of the competition I am running at the moment. Next Friday I am lucky enough to be going to see the kegend that is Terry Reid, he is doing a gig at a friends house which is pretty amazing. Hes on a UK tour and has a free night so this is something a little speacial He has agreed to donate a signed cd. There is also a vintage bottle of malt whisky in a presentation jug. It was vintage when it was bought in 1971 so is worth a few quid now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stutopia Posted May 20, 2013 Share Posted May 20, 2013 I'm just down the road in Blackpool, if I can get away would it be ok to pop up? I've never met another Zed owner in real life? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

martinmac Posted May 20, 2013 Author Share Posted May 20, 2013 Its difficult to give exact numbers for this as people camping just turn up and dont need to book, For those that are interested a conservative estimate at this time would be 40 cars with more calling me every day.

martinmac Posted May 21, 2013 Author Share Posted May 21, 2013 A little bit more info for all who will be attending. If coming in from the M6 your sat nav will probably bring you in through Grange over sands. This is fine but for those wishing to avoid the traffic and the one BIG speed bump in Grange I would suggest you use an alternative route. Stay on the A590 until you get to the turn off for the Anglers Arms at Haverthwite. ( LA12 8AJ ) Its just one left turn onto Holker Mosses and you will arrive in Cark in Cartmel with the Rose and Crown right ahead of you. A couple of reminders when driving around here. Tourists drive in the middle of the road. We have lots of horses and cyclist on the lanes. Badgers and foxes routinely dive out into the road and when dead stay there to try and take your bumpers off. Our local deer take great delight in throwing themselves over walls onto your bonnet, a mate has had two cars written off by deer. Its starting to look pretty busy but if the weather is as good as predicted the camping area may get busy. The fallback position would be this place which is two miles away. http://cartmelcamping.co.uk/facilities.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisS Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 Hmmm skydive..... Always wanted to do that. Price would be good Darren is checking when he gets home re what work he has for the weekend of this..
