That is even better, £3 for everything ,well spotted rudebox...

Anybody else? Going to set up a PM room tomorrow evening, for those already on the list to arrange pick-ups, etc

Looks like a good day out

What time will we be due back? busy in the evening!

Hi rambo, the opening times are 10.00 till 4.00, if we have seen and done everything , we will head home .So we could be on the road about 3.00 maybe..... a lot may depend on the blooming weather ... not a good forcast .Don,t fancy walking around in the rain allday..

Missy wants early start....early dart.
Looking forward to it

Missy not in charge , will go with the flow , just thinking about parking ...x

As long as I leave for 16:00 then count me in. Ta.

Just had a rethink, can't do it. Sorry for messing you about.

awww no Rambo

Wiki Day Out

We were treated to Sir William Godolphins Regiment of Foote re-enacting what life was like during the 17th Century and the English Civil War.

We were able to witness them dining on authentic food, relaxing in camp and in Battle. It was very enjoyable and surreal- it really felt as though we had travelled back in time.
