First post, welcome! I think it is a Friday. I can usually only make them if Saturday or Sunday. Are they keeping the Droves open for camping this year - I can check. We have done Autumn Equinox from this forum 3 times now, but not done Spring yet. Don't think I'll be a taker for the £100 tour bus though

It would be good to see you nanny001 Our vans the same as our avatars. We usually park on the North Drove, the one between where it says Stonehenge Cursus and the red arrow A (see picture) I usually come in from the North (Larkhill side). I checked on FB and droves should be open. The postcode given is for a square just north of the Larkhill entrance to the drove. Or you can try SP4 4NU which is on the droves themselves. Maybe best try the second postcode after you have got to Larkhill. You can also approach from A303 south side, but best come from the West and make a left turn onto the drove if you do that.

My van has arrow motorhomes on the side and back - I've not seen another one yet so it might make it easier to spot. Its a Citroen Relay. I also have a few stickers on the back door - Ace Cafe, Guy Martin logo, Tai Woffinden and a TT one!

Not sure if I can make it as the Bill for Snoopy's MOT is looking like £2,000 so far
Repaired or new ABS control unit £500-£1100 Clutch £500 ish Welding £200 Full service £250 MOT £50 ish Still what price do we put on the pleasure I get from Snoopy.

I hope you get Snoopy sorted soon - Mine cost a few quid this year as well, and I have some welding to do before next year! Its worth it as I get so many holidays by having the van, and the holidays are quite cheap (depending on how much beer is drunk and how close the pub is!)

I may have to cry off I'm afraid. I've a nasty chest infection and the cold air is making me cough my guts out. And the campfire smoke would not be good too. Along with some other problems as well, I just have no energy, so the weekend in bed for me I think. Such a shame as I was looking forward to meeting everyone.

Is anyone going tonight. I might wait and come down tomorrow. I've only just finished work.
