My wife has specifically said that she doesn't. And don't ask about the kids.

I always tell them I'm on a golfing weekend.
Do you play golf?

I'd also like an extra ticket to the concert for my husband.
Thanks

Many thanks

Speak for yourself Mr P! The only man who's been rumoured to have contacted the Dean and Chapter of York to rent the Minster from them for his overflow melodeon collection!  :|glug

I'm a Yorkie!
My other melodeon's a fiddle, but one of my Hohners has six strings! I also play a very red Hawkins Bazaar in C and a generic Klingenthaler spoon bass in F.!! My other pets (played) are gobirons - Hohner Marine Band in C, Hohner Tremolo in D and a Chinese Thingy Tremolo in G.

Does the CC site take tents, and bookings from non members?

Checked the handbook, it seems there are only hardstanding pitches and it states it is exclusive to members.

That's correct. The Caravan and Motorhome Club site is exclusive to members and does not allow tents because all the pitches are hard-standing. Bainbridge Ings and Blackburn Farm both take tents and are less than a 10 minute walk or 3 minute drive from the museum. For camper vans and motorhomes, I can arrange free overnight parking in the museum car park, but that isn't possible for tents or caravans.
