Camperjam of fail

At the end of last year I bought our Camperjam tickets, for the last few years we've really enjoyed this chilled show at Weston Park. In May the parcel with the goodies in arrived and we were all set. Surely this rubbish weather we'd had for a few weeks would clear by then.



Fast forward to July and with the camper packed we set off in convoy with Malcs and family, the rain lightly spitting down, sadly it got heavier and heavier. To be fair, its rain pretty much every day since Easter, we had a couple of days of sunshine but mostly its been shit! And mid way up the M40 it was looking bleak.



By the time we got to Warwick services for lunch, Kim had been reading the various weather reports and comments on FB about the show, talk of camping areas being shut and moved to club camping where we were supposed to be, traders being towed onto pitches and inches of mud to wallow through.



A group vote deemed it a wise move to head home, the journey was not very nice to that point and the thought of the same again in either direction wasn't much better but with three young children to think about we aborted and headed south. We gorged on BK before returning, comfort eating!



I really hope we can get a break this year, the weathermen are saying that its set like this until at least September. Fingers crossed they are wrong. The first dry and sunny weekend we have free the Campers will be loaded and the nearest campsite invaded for a bit!

Steve.
