Power isn't guaranteed for all pitches; but all have proper wc/shower etc facilities. Some will have mini-shops. cafe, swimming pool, wi-fi etc - So yep; a bit like your army days Ha.

Keith
Would it be possible to get a list of the camp sites when there confirmed and what facilities there are. This might help the ones with kiddies going to plan bits with the family on the quieter days and also help with planning meals etc.

Paul - All the campsites for the rally already confirmed and have been for some time. However, the answer to your question is 'No'. Part and parcel of this event is the 'unknown' and all will be revealed on a day-by-day basis.
I'm not sure where you get 'quieter days' from; there aren't any!!
Your concerns re the children is very valid. But have no worries - as my 3yr old and 2yr old grandchildren are taking part I'm more than aware of the demands on parents of youngsters travelling with us.

Harry - We're working on something at the moment re mobile wi-fi for the event. But no promises - it depends on the benevolence of those we're engaged with.
