Brilliant day in the late summer sunshine.
Some were moaning about the Dub stuff, for me they add to the day. Not sure about all the tat that what was being sold in their area.
Thanks for the bacon butties Rhian and the OOD beer James.

I keep seeing posts on various forums about the lack of loos and facilities but am I the only person that ventured back over the cattle grid to the lake and the visitor centre

It had a cafe and proper toilets with no queues, I did think it was funny when walking past all those people in the queue that were only a couple of places further forward on the return ,It was a country park after all with some great walking trails and stuff to see as well as the cars

I too went to the campsite loos (another lot in addition to the ones at the Visitor centre). Not only no queue but much more pleasant than a portaloo

Hear, hear.
I wouldn't have taken my kids if it hadn't been by the country park. They spent all afternoon in there and had a brilliant time, and we actually had our picnic there by the lake. My wife missed this event but when I showed her the photos of the park she wanted to go back there!
Got there early enough to only queue for about 10 minutes - just long enough for it to be entertaining looking at the cars waiting to go in! I did sympathise with the cars which were backed up all the way from the event to the country park entrance a little later on. Also I only had to pay my entrance - would have been a bit steep paying for a car full of adults at £5 each considering we were essentially putting on the show by attending! Payment should be by car surely?

Hi, I had a great day....I did feel that the Porsche's should have had their own parking! I parked my sparkling 944 up next to another and a great looking 924 GTR so I was pleased but surely a discount for bringing the attraction? Like the guy in the Carerra GT did he have to pay, I hope not bringing an awesome car like that along!
