You are the lead on this trip with a buggy tour guide hat on 

OK. Change of plan for me.

The Blue dog is injured and therefore is housebound for the next 2 weeks so I'll be coming solo after all and will have to slum it in our tiny tent rather than the relative luxury of a camper. I will set off early on Friday morning, aiming to be at Swanage FC by 10:00 so I can join you guys for the 11:30 boat trip after all... please count me in!

A bit more info about the Friday Boat Cruise.
Gave them a call this afternoon to let them know about the interest and how many could be attending the cruise, they said that if there's more than 20 people signing in there will be a discount on all that are going. 

Just a quick update on the catering that Karen was volunteered to do.
The Pizza oven will be burning your finest Italian flat breads on Saturday evening for those that don't want to do a BBQ. So if you want to pick them up on the cruise they need to be under 14" and not frozen. It only takes a couple of minutes for each.

Breakfast baps on Sunday will be served from around 9am and will be £2 for 1 filling or £2.50 for 2, let me know before the cruise if you want in, all profit going to the football club. Fetch your own brews but I'm going to see if I can get the Burco boiler on.
See you all on Friday afternoon with no buggy        

Whenever your traveling have a safe trip, and for those arriving tomorrow can you try and not be there much before 14:00, just to make sure I'm there for when you arrive, cheers

I've made it to within about 15 miles of Swanage thus far and have developed a fuel/spark problem - misfiring like hell
Currently awaiting a breakdown service who will hopefully get me back on the road...
Gotta love these damn buggies 

Misfiring buggy - tell me about it! Hope it's an easy fix.

We are Coming down for the day..In are high top T4 .. How bad? is parking around Swanage...

Swanage is busy and with intermittent road closures parking is limited the car park at the football end has a steady thrnover but the club car park is full of buggy campervans

Made it home, despite the m25 trying to lengthen the trip, thanks to everyone for making the weekend a pleasure to arrange, hope you have all made it home without incident and we look forward to seeing you again.

Fabulous weekend - Thanks to Mark and Sue for not organising it   

Will post pictures etc when I have finished unloading the van

Great week thank everyone our first Swanage was epic 🤩

Some of these have appeared elsewhere but for the record a taste of the weekend...
