The Round Britain Rally gets Camping at Hayfield Camping & Caravan Club site in the Dark peak area of the Peak district national park in Derbyshire, an area of tranquillity and escape from the hustle & bustle of modern life, an area to get back to nature and enjoy the beauty of the English scenery at it's best and a good place to spot low flying 747's et al buzzing the site from 0130hrs until the BAA are sure everyone is awake!
Despite a wet week-end the indomitable spirit of the Ralliers comes to the fore in the face of such trials and we all park the bikes up and make a truly heroic run for the dry inside of the Sportsman's Hotel once inside we are forced to eat good food and drink as much beer as possible, like true 'hard' bikers we take this torture on the chin and only complain when being kicked out!
My tent managed to start it's own breeding program during the week-end, possibly due to the weather and grew a 'windbreak' which, unfortunately was pointing in the wrong direction and became a windcatcher
tunnelling the wind into the tent, this is not good as it also diverts the rain into the tent as well, in fact, this whole design was a disaster but I'm not going to admit it to any one, that would be silly!

Was it like this?
"The boys drive up to what they believe to be the nudist camp they're searching for. A sign states "All Asses Must Be Shown". The boys guffaw, their girlfriends are appalled. Sid asks where the manager is. "He's gone for a pee" is the reply. Soon, the scruffy manager appears, hitching up his pants, carrying a wooden letter "P" which he proceeds to nail onto the sign so it now reads "All Passes Must Be Shown".
Sounds like a great camping time was had by all.
