I've just been and raided M & S for a couple of comfortable but warm jumpers. I only have thin ones, as I rarely need anything warm, I put a coat on if necessary but hate wearing coats. I don't want to spend the weekend in a coat, so am now prepared if it is chilly. What you don't want to do, when camping, is get too cold, as so hard to get warm again.

Me too, as I just posted, seconds ago, on the Facebook Group of where I am going, I need something warm to snuggle up to and Hubby will be an hours drive away. :wink:

If that was your last experience of camping Rob, I think I am probably far more up to date in my knowledge, as it was only 12 months ago that I was last in a tent.

And yes Auntie Em, I expect he does.

You were in St James's brownies.That's the old church down Dingle Street or was it Florence Road?
I was christened there.The vicar used to come up Good Shepherd once a week for morning prayers.

Yes, that's the one Rob - he used to live in the vicarage next to Bury Hill Park. I was good friends with his daughter.

One can only conclude, from the evidence to hand, that it was quite some time ago. :roll:

A bit off thread - but just looking for info on St James, Rounds Green on Oldbury History Group site and they have added a really useful timeline.
