Betws y Coed Christmas Event

As this is planned for first week in December and the Ribbleshead thing is New Year, then its possible to do both!!

My concerns about this meet is that as we are planning to use a public carpark, and even though the council have been informed of our intentions, no-one seems to have got back to us and said we will be okay. We dont want another 'Dale Farm' on our hands with Jen handcuffing herself to the nearest lampost. :scared:




Jen (Kimbowbill) clear your in box. I've tried to send you a PM and it says your Inbox is full !!
 
Im coming for sure, "aint no moths around that time of year is there lol

Mothman,,
 
An Update:

Been discussing with the National Park about the use of the car park in Betws y Coed.

In principle, they're happy but have contacted the local community council and Riverside campsite to make sure that they are not upset!!

Hopefully we'll hear soon.

I have stated that we are all self contained and that we will take full responsibility for the removal of any waste/refuse from the site.

Basically, just parking up for the night.

He seemed OK about it and was glad that we had approached them first before arriving en masse!!

Now, we are relying on councils etc, so it may take a little longer...........................

Anyone who has read my post will know my feelings on bureaucracy etc.

Will keep you posted.

Just hoping my daughter doesn't go into labour a week early and upset my plans!.

Shall we all have name badges on and look like Geeks?

Will we have decided on the Logo for our badge??

If I have not buggered off skiing by then I would be up for this,have to admit I did give the car park attendant a bit of grief when he knocked my door last time I was parked there.
Will keep schtum this time tho ;)
 
I bet im first to either step into dog poo or put my fingers in it:cry:





no moths barry, but plenty o dog poo lol xx
 
If I can get a bit of annual leave this sounds a nice way to finally say hello to you all!:wave:
 
Any news back from the relevant authorities yet? I can't imagine anyone but the campsite having an issue with it, but why would we care what they think?

I assume we're still doing this, as the topic's gone awfully quiet.

If we stay on the car park all weekend we'll be pumping money into the pay and display meter during daytime. Anyone know what the all-day tariff is?
 
Wolfie several people,myself included have had a knock on the door in the morning from the car park litter warden advising us that overnight sleeping is not allowed in the car park.
Seems a complaint was made about it and the council is trying to stop it but it has been pointed out to them the money Betwys will lose by doing this. I don't think they really have anything against us but just reacted to a complaint.shame really,nice place.

Hopefully there'll be too many doors for him to bother knocking on them all. Besides if Bigpeetee's approach to the National Park Authority results in a green light, we will be there with permission on the weekend in question. The hope is that this meet then paves the way for us to recommence using the site for overnight parking without objections.

Around that time, my wife and I will be touring around that area anyway, so we would very much like to tag along.....Is there any more information please?

Thank you,
Ron
 
The original dates for this event were from 26th November to 4th December (Saturday to Sunday 8 days). I was intending to turn up on Monday the 28th November....how many days and when were our other members considering attending? The impression is the meeting is now starting
in December which is towards the end of the period.
 
Thanks Rebbyvid...I guess then it would make sense to attend during the end two days. Unfortunately I'll be back home
by then...so not much point in going on the 26th then after all.
 
Come down to Stonehenge if Betwys-y-coed doesn't happen (distance allowing etc). It's the same weekend 2/3/4 Dec. Campfire will be burning and drinks will be flowing!
