Grapestock - the countdown

Ok, so it's 15 weeks away, but we thought it'd be sensible (now that we have a good idea of confirmed numbers) to start getting an idea of what we 'need' and who can bring what.

Sarz has kindly organised sanitary facilities - which does involve a cost, so there is a small fee which I'm sure we all expect and are willing to pay. Currently the cost is working out at just under £10 per adult camper, and just under £5 per adult day visitor.

That bit's fairly easy to sort out (I say - Sarz/Pumpkin Becki may well disagree), and it's been suggested that we pay via something like Paypal. It's widely used, tried and tested and reliable. Unless anyone has any other suggestions I'd suggest we go that way - there will obviously be the odd one or two that don't/won't have a Paypal account, but hopefully the majority will and it'll ease the process a little. We'll have to sort out some other method of payment for those not using Paypal - but in the interests of Sarz's sanity, can I ask that those that can, do.

Also thought it sensible - for those that are confirmed as coming, to draw up a list of things we think we will need and things people can offer to bring along.

Food and drink is an obvious one - I would suggest bringing our own (and more if you want to share, or show off your culinary skills), but we will need barbecues/fuel - weather permitting.

So, let's start a list (might call upon the skills of PB for this one) of what we think we need, then when we're all reasonably happy - we'll start another for those that can bring various bits on the list.

Sound sensible? I'll get things started...

Things we need.

1. Barbecues
2. Gazebos
