To be fair it doesn't say anything about camping in the announcement, we have just taken that as written because we have been to Billing before.

yes :D

if theres anything people are unsure of post here thats the idea - they might not be the only one :D

Billing is a huge holiday park - plenty for all the family to do aside from the stuff we organise 8)

the area we get allocated proberbly wont have 240v hook up facility - we'll be running the disco etc. off generators - so make sure your batterys are charged :lol:

no where to sleep :lol: and the back is full of diesely? shite so thats a no go :roll: so, my question is, can the wifey follow me down in the car ( not a Ford ) :roll:

Me and my lad will camp it in a tent and the missus says her and my girl will sleep in the car on the leather :twisted: whilst we all slum it 8)

If this is possible, and my math is right...i'm looking at 60 quid for the fri to sun :?

yeah thats possable and bringing a non ford car would be ok :D :lol: but that £60 would be right as i assume billing would charge you both twice :( if you had a caravan it would be £30 :) might be best to ring or email them and see if they will allow you in as 1 :?

I can live with 60 quid for the weekend, that's no probs :D the Passat parked next to a load of Transits may look a bit odd :lol: :lol:
