The off-road route is not looking too good either as many of the routes look restricted since we were last there. It might be a case of we get away with it once and apologise afterwards (my main approach to life in general) but most of the decent paths were bridal paths unfortunately.
Possible bad news Richie
New Landlord knows nothing about anyone coming that weekend... but the landlord thought that they were all regulars that he knew.
We're still coming

Possible bad news Richie
Re Camping. The newer site up the road (Riverside Camping) is about half a mile up the road and has electric hook up for wobbly boxes etc. You can only get to Brendon from the Simonsbath side. It is impossible the other way (from the north) as there is a very steep (25%) hill and a stupidly narrow old bridge that would never allow a fat Hymer across.
Sorry to be the bearer of bad news but wanted to let you all know ASAP so that plans can be sorted.
For the campers, Porlock has the best choice of shops for supplies and eateries, with Minehead just a bit further along for a greater range of shops/restaurants, and a large Tesco's. If you fancy a curry, i know Humbug has a regular haunt he can recommend there.
To be honest, as long as there's good weather, you'll probably find you'll take your own booze and chill in the campsite for the evenings. Last time we went, we stopped for a pint in The Stag at the end of the walk, got back to the site, got the fire going and had a great time.

Bah humbug Mr Horman, you do have PMs, don't you...?
Un-fucking-believable!
I go out of my way to try to help with this event.
Why the fuck did I bother?
You know what? I don't give a microscopic shit!
Event firmly crossed off my list of events to go to. Sorry Richie, not your fault at all mate.
Un-fucking-believable!
I go out of my way to try to help with this event.
I point out the following facts:
1. The landloard of the pub "around which the event is centred" knows nothing at all about the event.
2. The pub is fully booked for rooms and restaurant.
3. Very few trails are available due to various route closures in recent events.
4. I could only just squeeze my Skoda over the narrow bridge. No way in a million years would any Hymer ever fit between the stone walls of that bridge.
I stupidly thought I was simply trying to help people.
But obviously, you lot all know better than me!
