Not me I'm afraid, organising an event where there is nowhere to camp other than a car park and nowhere to sleep other than a beer infested carpet of a pub.  Sorry.  If there were proper accommodation or a decent field to camp then I could understand it but to organise a weekend event where there are no decent facilities seems a bit odd.

As a venue for a rideout on Saturday or Sunday, somewhere for a beer, a burger and a chat with mates on Thursdays and seeing the occasional band the Vic scores well but as a place to hold a weekend function then it simply does not have the facilities. Camping for a handful of tents on grass verges around a pub car park together with crashing overnight on a dirty pub carpet on a "bring your own airbed & sleeping bag" basis @ £10 a throw falls well short of my definition of having a good time.   I for one will never attend a weekend function.

Do you mean the Hermitage Park? £57.50 a night for 1 person, it'd probably be cheaper for me to get a taxi home.

If this goes ahead I'll probably go along, but I'll be going home again afterwards. There really isn't anywhere to camp, and the pub doesn't look like a nice place to sleep.

I kinda have to agree with the comments about the Vic not really being an overnight stay sensation!!  It certainly doesn't fill me with 'fluffy thoughts' about either camping or crashing.  If it did go ahead, I would rather not drink and go home afterwards.  I'm too old now for all that shCensoredt!
