I think my there is one that could, maybe, be accesible on my wifes side of the family, not sure how many birth it is though.

 

EMF have little "villages" perhaps you could get a Swansea Univeristy village.

I would really like to go (to EMF), I am tempted to ask the University to lend us a tent for the event, you know somewhere we could call head quarters. See also if they would be willing to do some kind of sponsoring. 


A Caravan would be good, although I do not have one in my position.

P.s. not sure if I can make it this monday, work is having problems with leaving a rota untouched after its been printed :-/
 
I could do with picking up an other UNO so I'll get one from Hackspace next time I come.
 
Any idea when we would be able to get kets etc?
 
I'm really tempted by the EMF festival, I've emailed about volunteering for the bar work, anyone else thinking of going? I read up on their page the other day and I'm pretty sure they allow caravans/campers for thoes who don't do tents.
