SandMonster Posted February 21, 2008 Author Report Posted February 21, 2008 I think so, but we still need to do a BRS w/e before the end of march (Matt's in NZ - so we need to organise ourselves)
PaulLaurie Posted February 21, 2008 Report Posted February 21, 2008 Weekend before is easter and I think BRS will be mobbed if weather is ok and we maybe banned from then. How about 14/15th March. Calling Nolan! is that camp site open then?
garc Posted February 22, 2008 Report Posted February 22, 2008 Will the beach be closed at all today ? Looks like a big tide.
danmon81 Posted February 22, 2008 Report Posted February 22, 2008 would think so...1hr after high tide (11:50 i think) Dan
PaulLaurie Posted February 22, 2008 Report Posted February 22, 2008 I would say quite possibly yes, the wind will not help as its westerly. Give the rangers a ring, number on aospkc website and on here somewhere. You can always park behind the ranger station and walk over the dunes though if it is closed. Take care though eh! 45mph big red arrows over crosby atm!!
garc Posted February 22, 2008 Report Posted February 22, 2008 Mmmm...hope it drops a bit this after then...
garc Posted February 22, 2008 Report Posted February 22, 2008 Just had a look at the wirralcams - forgot about those. Looks a bit fecking wild at the mo.

That's if you want the drive? Not sure if it's still doing the offer though! Turn right at roundabout off the beach, along coast rd till lights, right along dual carriageway past airfield & formby till a big pub on left near some traffic lights. Not sure name either. So I couldn't be more vague really LOL
SandMonster Posted February 24, 2008 Author Report Posted February 24, 2008 sands does do a bit of food I think (lunchtimes) we're doing morning too...just packing van now...
