Camp Fires?

[James691]

Hi Paul,

Are camp fires allowed at the site? Just thinking on or I will have to try and find a stove - plenty of options in the mag so I am sorted there. I just tend to dig a sod section up, rock it and cook on the open fire.

Also good for a bigger fire to all sit round in the night - but if you would rather not have fires then that's cool mate.

Thanks in advance

James

A fire-pit would be cracking mate and I've always found James's turf and stone technique to be very unobtrusive once put back.
That said, it's a new campsite so fully understand if you're not into it.

Just put a few bits of turf over the top. He will never notice. Ok I think im just being a trouble maker now.

Not wishing to be a wet blanket, having gone through this issue with getting other events insured it might possibly void the site PL insurance and considering the winds that have been forecast it might be a bad idea... been to too many rallies where tents have been ruined by hot ashes from bonfires carried on the wind after you get a flare up when it changes direction.

Unless someone is off down the crossroads with a sacrificial chicken at midnight on Thursday that's the one factor that will remain unpredictable...

Then again was at one once where a neighbouring farmer , knowing the direction of the wind provided us with free firewood and fireworks on the rally field ... and yes there was a field of over-ripe barley that caught fire "accidentaly" ... hmmm... :whistle:
