Is there somewhere in Woodstock that will sell bottles of it?! I don't want to have to carry bottles down on the train with me really! Although, Asda have an offer on at the mo.
Will PM you my number if you want, or other way?!

Do that and I will give you mine too - we are going on Thurs too so you can meet us with the OH if you want and ensure we arent REALLY odd LOL!
As for purchasing - there are shops in Woodstock where you can go shopping (I take it you have a car, its a hell of a treck!) Otherwise I am sure HHOers (the local ones, me, Jifs, Hayliana, etc) can bring supplies!

Oh, god! No I'm going by train and then getting the bus from Oxford to there. Don't worry, I'm sure I'm equally as odd, especially with Pimms.
Will I not be able to manage to get any from Woodstock then? Info has made out like it's not that much of a trek.

Well Blenheim is right on the edge of Woodstock, but I would think it is a good 25 min walk to any shops from the campsite - will have a proper think LOL!
Jiffy

Yes, there's a Co-op on the corner of the main shops in Woodstock.
You don't fancy paying £5 for a plastic cup of Pimms in the event site then?!

See Jifs has far more info than me! - How long to walk it Jifs?

It's tempting, but unfortunately I will be passing on that as much as possible!
Plus I'll need some for the evening too of course. I'll be having a rave on my own in the campsite!
Jiffy

Probably 15-20mins from the tradestands or 25mins as you say from the campsite!

Haha, uh oh! May have to get a taxi and get OH to pay then! Hee hee. 25 minutes isn't too bad, was planning to take as little food as possible with us and just buy some from village, but may have to rethink the plan. Don't really fancy lugging so much stuff down on the train though.

Is it too early to ask who's going to Blenheim and on which days?
I have S-J tickets for Sunday for Puppy and I.
I know Sunflower and Weevil will be there Sunday too.
BB's I guess will be working there as usual.
Turbobert, Weezy, Hayliana - When are you going?
I haven't made up my mind about XC day yet
It will depend on the weather forecast, coz I don't want to get drenched & soaked to the skin again.
Anyone else?

Hey Jiffy *waves*,
Yep, last year was something else......
Unfortunately I won't be able to go this year. I've go a work deadline Friday and parent visiting Saturday afternoon/Sunday so I'll have to give it a miss this year.
But have a good time

I'll be there XC day - incognito cos I'm going with my mum (!!!) - and if you ever met my mum you will know why I am not going to admit who I am!! Also poss my sister and 3 years old niece (aaahhh!) plus my two mad dogs (one greyhound, one lurcher)
Blenheim park is really not far from Woodstock - many years ago I went to school in Woodstock, and thought nothing of walking home (to Combe for anyone local!!) across the park - all to avoid naff lessons!

ARRGGHHHH...
No Sunflower, don't spoil it yet - Please! I don't do "Brolly's" be they pink, purple or leopard-spotted!
If the rain drips through my "B*ll*cks to Blair" baseball cap, then so be it!

lol IntroEventer...very cryptic. Sounds lovely though taking a short-cut home from school through the estate.
I shall try and resist temptation to go on Saturday as I'm going to Burghley the following Saturday! But it's just soo close, I might have to pop along ...if Sunflower is wrong about the weather.

It did occur to me as I wrote it that of course you know who I am after Salperton - I will look out for you just in case you are there, then if I spot you I can run hurriedly away from family and say hi all innocently

Barbury was actually the best spectator event I've been to. Super SJ arena and viewing of the xc, I'd really like to go again.
