    I would love to go to Brownsea. I arranged a fab camp for our Guides once, staying in the New Forest. It included a trip to the island. Couldn't get enough Guides to go to make it viable.

    We used to take the kids to Swanage every Sept. You couldn't seem to go anywhere without passing through Corfe Castle. :rotfl:

    When are you going?

    I'm down in the new Forest next weekend for a training weekend I'm arranging. It's where I would have camped with the Guides.
