Gates usually open at 2pm on the saturday, camping costs about a tenner I think.

Get there at 5 past and you'll be sat in a mile long que.

Camping is more than half the fun IMO. If I had to stay in a hotel, I wouldn't bother coming - the main attraction of PVS for me is being able to have a laugh and a drink with fellow PNGers, I really couldn't give a rats backside about most of the cars there. Being Vauxhalls and all that lol

I think Mike might want a bigger tent this time though lol

Well the wife and I will be staying in a hotel, he wouldn't have it any other way and TBH I'm on his side now too. It's awesome getting a good nights sleep and getting to wake up and have a shower :p

Hmm, not a bad idea, will pitch that to CP. Could fit quite a few beds in his workshop/barns, lol.

All for a reasonable price of course, lol.
