Where do you keep your RIBs / which camp site do you stay at?

I'm thinking of doing a trip there in October.

Cheers

Everyone else still on board,Mollers,Sticky and the rest?....Been asked if there are any spare seats going for some petrol vouchers too! We're looking forward to it...Fingers still crossed for fine weather!
