Where to play for the day ?
      #1854700 - 11/05/2008 17:51

I asked over on PBO but I think it must be full of raggies because no one gave up the nice spots
I'm looking for days out with my new toy ( with thanks to Becky )



So any tips on nice spots to pootle about for the day ?
I'm getting bored sitting in it in the garden and it's to big for the hot tub

I did that this afternoon - drained my pond sorted out the collapsed edges and now in the process of refilling - found 2 frogs, 1 fish (thought the heron had them all) and half a dozen newts. I hope the fresh tap water doesnt kill em off.

Well i live at the London end of the M3 so my first thoughts where as far as the south coast but after this weekend playing i think a weekend away could be on the cards with maybe a hotel / B&B or even buying a tent and camping out

Poole would be a great location, as more sheltered than most of South Coast, with plenty of places to explore. You could even go up to Wareham.

Well there is an added incentive!

You could see if Aztec and Duncan, and all the other Poolites are around as well
