Having set this up as a meet and as the 3 "confirmed" attendees are no longer coming, I will not be able to reserve space for MHF exclusively. There is no shortage of space at Stratford so if you feel like coming to a great western weekend, please feel free to turn up from Thursday 7th.
You will be able to request to save a pitch for friends who are coming later if you wish. You will of course have to pay gate prices (add £10 to the figures above) but its still a good value weekend.

You can camp with us till Monday but if you wish to stay longer, contact "Colin" the campsite warden at Stratford to book one of their pitches, (a chance to visit Stratford)

ps I think it was the challenge to a fast draw contest in front of the saloon that put 'em off.........I was only kiddin'..........but you're right to be afraid!

Greetings,

Can you give us some more information about the Country and Western show Badger as we may be able to attend if the van is finished in time as it has to go back to Coventry on the 4th of August for warranty work and Gaslow being fitted.

Just over a week to go till the Blue Rodeo.........everything is in place and it looks like being a "good 'un" (hopefully the weather will be kind to us)

Don't forget if you fancy a great weekend of country music and cowboys just turn up, there's plenty of room.............check out the website

You know I'm coming, just for the day, on Saturday Badger.
Can't recommend this show enough, Badger puts on a great display & the other dedicated westerners are a joy to see.
Have a quick look at Badger with a mad bird on his arm and just a quick butchers of what was available to see, the last time I saw them in Kent.
