We tend to not have a main communal area, opting instead for multiple smaller congregations in the evenings at a few of the pitches ~ it's better to make proper provision for self catering than to plan on rolling up at someones pitch and beg indulgence(s) at meal times.

Sometimes yes, sometimes no ~ as above, it's always better to be sure and the only way to be sure is to have the ability to sort yourself out.

I guess I need to get myself to Rough Close one month

Best way to approach it... plus as you're car camping it won't matter that much lugging extra gear

Also try to bring some extra firewood as well as it's a bit thin on the ground at RC

Yes you do Shewie

There's usually a 3 day one in the spring so it'd make sense to aim for that one as you're making a long journey

 

[decorum]

bring everything with me this time >>>snip<<< and then learn from this what doesnt need bringing

From a personal stand point ... Kit choice is an ongoing process with constant chopping and changing

(aka having back ups to back ups and justifying keeping it by using it 'occasionally'

)

I went without seats the first few meets and it was literally a PIA- the first I had food traumas too so plan your eating in advance- theres no snobbery over homemade vs pouch As a noob myself, I did the 'pack and reduce' style which has worked brilliantly, getting lighter all the time I forget something every time but hey, unlikely you'll suffer more than moderate discomfort.
