Looks like I will be going again this year with even more grandchildren!
Went for the first time last year and thoroughly enjoyed it. This year is the 40th anniversary of the GDSF. Any other MHFers planning to go?
Again this year we will be staying with the New Forest DA of the Camping and Caravanning Club at their holiday site at Glebe Field (Hyde Farm) Pimperne, Blandford Forum, Doset. Cost £5.25 pun, extra adults £1.20 pppun. Own sanitation essential. It is possible to join the C&CC at the site.
Advanced booking not available. We just turned up for two nights and were made very welcome. The site is actually open from 15th August until 2nd September. The GDSF is open from 27th August until 31st August inclusive.
There is a bus from the site to the showground, discounted tickets available from the New Forest DA C&CC stewards on the site, full price on the bus.
Yes we are coming from Spain but will camp at the fair £12 per night showers (£2.50) water toilets and disposal points just walk into the fair each day
If they use the usual spot its the field above the market stalls

We are going and camping on site at the steam fair.
We are arriving on Tuesday 26th and leaving on Friday 29th, booked to see the onsite concerts on the Tuesday and Wednesday nights too.
We know of one other MHF member going although last year walking around we bumped into a few familiar faces.
My OH and his pal are going to the Fair on Thursday until Sunday on their annual Jolly Boys outing. No females allowed!! Up until now they have always tented it but this year they are going in style in our A/S Clubman. They are just hoping the ground doesn't get too churned up. Forecast looks dry so fingers crossed! Have a great time all!

I want to go with my australian visitors but have left if too late to get camping tickets. Any ideas?
There is a C&CC THS 2 miles away. Last year there was a shuttle bus running between the 2 sites FOC! Discounted tickets were available from the C&CC site wardens, hoping it will be the same this year.
Are you a member of the C&CC, if so PM me and I will e-mail you more details of the THS
NO, NO, NO, - You do NOT want to go to the Dorset Steam Fair - keep repeating that to yourself every hour until the urge goes away.

I live about a mile from the site and it is the biggest pain of the year. The Salisbury Road is blocked for about a week, we have people who ordinarily would be able to use a roundabout, but during the Steam Fair week, they insist on blocking the exits due to the traffic jams, such that even if your exit road is clear you can't even get onto the roundabout. That is not to mention the legion of "travellers" that descend on the town, parking where they feel like and leaving huge volumes of rubbish behind which we have to pay to have removed. The sooner the Steam Fair goes elsewhere the better.
Oooooh, I do feel better now, I'll think I'll go and have a lie down........(preferably until it's over!!)
