Isuzu Trooper Owners Club UK™

Twister

It would appear from other posts regarding Langdale, and from some of the requests I've had for booking forms that there are a few of us going to Langdale on the 12th March from the Manchester(ish) area. i.e. Bolton, Rochdale etc.. Personally I am travelling from Stockport with two Shogun owners ( such is life Rolling Eyes

), and we intend to go up on the Saturday afternoon with the intention of camping overnight at the campsite that Markymoan did so well finding ;
http://www.jasminepark.co.uk/index.htm

Idea

What I was thinking was that if anyone else was interested we could arrange a meeting place and time, say for example Birch services eastbound, and all travel in " convoy" ( I know Jack Wink

) from there to the campsite. Could be a long journey, but on the saturday, what's the rush? C.B's up and running, a good chance to plan our tactics for the following days Pajero bashing Razz

. Anyone interested Question

Stick a post on the end of this and if there's any interest we can sort out a proper place and time. 8) 8) 8) 8) . Could even pick up straddlers on the way from places like ... say... Rotherham Wink

What about you all travel to Kirov and meet me the we'll do a 3day drive from Kirov to Langdale Question

I'll look at a map and get back to you, If you travel with me you'll have to do 55-65mph all the way as my MK1 will be tugging 3ton Wink

and its petrol so will be trying to save as much petrol as possible Wink

Would love to do that one day Jack, when the kids have left the nest, and I've won the lottery etc..etc..... Laughing

All we need to do is set a time and place to meet for the drive over,
but i must tell you i tend to stay at about 60mph, i hope thats not a problem.
If it is i will meet you over there.

I'm taking my 19 yr old son, not a seasoned off-roader, but very keen to learn Twisted Evil

. Have to teach him how to attach a tow rope in 3 ft of mud Razz

. Not taking the wife and the 2 little uns, I don't think they're up for it yet, a bit too young for camping in March. (the 2 little uns at least Laughing

) . My m8 Steve is also taking his 14(?) yr old son / co-driver , assuming he gets his water pump fitted to his Shogun Friday night Rolling Eyes

.
I do like all this rain Twisted Evil

. Great as long as it stops about midday Saturday so I can get the tents up.

Taking a cast Iron BBQ / charcoal burner ( only a little one, but very effective), although I doubt we'll be allowed to use it on the campsite. Also plenty of food, booze, blankets etc. Not sure what we'll forget this time, but there's always something. I keep saying I should do a list and laminate it, but it just keeps getting put off. It was the loo roll last time Embarassed
