if theres a nice place to hang my hammock and a good bunch of lads then its worth the diesel. even though i do tend to 
early.
early.
I'm really bloody tempted! At least Dartmoor still honours our roaming rights (and a whole host of other rights going right back to the Magna Carta before successive governments stomped all over those rights).
Countless miles of woodland all around here in Suffolk, yet if you camp on it you're breaking the law. What a waste!

I suppose the land owners consider the impact of the not so welcome campers and are consequentially shy of giving permission to prevent an invasion, can't really blame them too much.:welcome1:followed by thirty caravans smillie lol.
Not only Caravans......Take a look at what Paul found this time he went out... I have seen the same sort of thing.. so called Bushcrafter/wildcampers....?????

There will be a Saturday Group Meal, Last time was a Beef Stew and Dumplings, cost of last time came to £3.00 each. (will try to keep to the same sort of cost...but that's down to how much it cost from the Supermarket....) - of course you can cater yourself if you require.

Of course Photo's and the Micky being taken is compulsory ....
And Fluffy Hot water bottles/slippers are welcome.....

You too sir. And this weekend is in addition to or instead of any fun on the bank holiday do you know?
Yeah the Orchard ones are just a Monthly that I have started so we get a regular meet in a safe place as such were familys can join in as well, and have the showers and loo's as such, the rough/wild stuff, and visits to other groups we normaly do as and when, The one that simon was aranging was an extra to the monthly, I am still going out over the easter weekend, its just where... and who wants to come.. trouble is the more that come the less places that we have to go..
I know that there may be 5 or 6 of us that may want a weekender somewhere... I would suggest may be Rendlesham we know a good couple of spots
Sounds good brother. Rendlesham at least on my occasional drive throughs sounds ideal. I would be up for that if that is ok.
I'm fine with Rendlesham, so long as it's absolutely nowhere near the Gypsy camp on the edge of the base!
Not at the moment, but I can get you one tomorrow on the school run (drive past them every damn day)
Actually... here's the place on Google Maps
The clearing you see there is where the gypsy camp is. They keep getting kicked off, and they keep coming back.
Interesting note: there were trees there before the gypsys turned up!
