An man. I'm away that weekend. Gutted.

We can perhaps come for the day as we picked up a guitar purchase in Stoke a couple of weeks ago so the drive wouldn't be unfamiliar. Not sure about camping but we live quite close anyway. Definitely not fit to perform or have a stall at our ability levels but these things do need buyers too right? I'll keep my eyes open for dates. Thanks.

Cool count me in (may have to find a b&b as Saffrons a little young for camping, 4 weeks yesterday) and hopefully with John on drums as 3 Chords & A Lie. August bank holidays Elstead beer and cigar box guitar festival so probably best not that weekend!

Hi Stu, that would be awesome! Yup, kids are always welcome at the pub. They sometimes have bouncy castles and things for events but the bouncy castle garden is the one they've offered us as a camping ground.

My drummers originally a Shropshire lad so I think we'd be up for playing. Is the pub child friendly?

As probably your nearest fellow builder I can hardly say no, can I? I do have holidays already booked but let me know dates as soon as you can and hopefully it will all fall in to place. It will make a change to have something like this on the doorstep instead of hours and miles away!

I should think so Nigel, they're generally a dog friendly pub but I'll double check with Shas tomorrow just to be 100%.
