Hi everyone, just though I'd let you all know, I went for a ride around Wales yesterday with 2 guys off the North West Bikers forum, as part of the ride I took them to the camp site to see Martins bench.
You'll be glad to know that the owner has put it in a prime position right in the middle of the field where we normally pitch, there was a couple with a couple of young kids camping right next to it and they were using it quite normally for their drinks towels etc which just goes to show that we made the right decision to have a picnic bench to be used rather than a morbid park bench that people would be reluctant to use
So with this I would just like to say firstly it looks like we made the right decision secondly thanks again to everyone that made the effort to contribute
Oh and by the way if anyone hasn't yet seen the post for this years meeting at Rhayader, here's the link to the post
