We had been notified by the campsite that there would be a BBQ on Saturday afternoon and they were expecting at least 50 people and would we like to go and if so make a booking.
The day started a bit grey and even raining and we were a bit concerned that the BBQ would not take place which would be difficult for us as we had no standby food. but by 12.30 it appeared that nobody had turned up and as we felt a little sorry for the owners we headed to the bar and found en route one of the owners doing a tour of the site for about 5/6 people.
There were quite a few people waiting to serve us when we gor here which was nice but we had a pre-lunch drink and then settles down with a a lite of the hosue wine and steaks which were sort of ok if you have strong teeth and half a day to devote to chewing beef, but anyway overall it was not to bad. Part of the way through the owner cam to introduce a very nice young lady of around 21 who spoke English and it turned out that she had stayed in Stratford upon Avon for two years on a Management Training course and seemed to have enjoyed every minute of it as no doubt it’s a little livelier than where we were. She talked abou the site and that the owners wanted to develop the place and their University Class was looking to give business input and with her class of about eight others were looking to help but my opinion was that they were there for a free lunch only.
After about three hours of steak chewing and a very good desert we headed back to the caravan for a quite evening in preparation for our planned move tomorrow to Chateau Le Comte in Carlucet. It rained in the evening before we went to bed and so we were concerned that tomorrow would be better
