Token Posted January 16, 2008 Report Share Posted January 16, 2008 Hey Wayne, when me an the welsh boyos went down to Buthiers rocks last year we stayed at a 'travel lodge' in Nemours (they're called F1's not travel lodge), 15 minute drive from the rocks. Here's the website.Pretty clean place to stay, the rooms were alright with crappy French TV and you can opt to have breakfast. For 28 euros a night you can't complain really.So... free beer?

Simpson Posted January 16, 2008 Report Share Posted January 16, 2008 whats up with a tent away from all the action, i used to love camping when i was 11.?Never been but i wouldnt imagine it would be very family orientated, with 100 or so teenagers with a single aim to get as pissed as possible and cause mayhem.... i know that at Nass i wouldn't let my children anywhere near it after 7 especailly at 11years old. Things like that can be really dangerous and i can understand his dad airing on the side of caution and just enjoying watching the comps an stuff?

Davetrials Posted January 16, 2008 Report Share Posted January 16, 2008 thats why i said away from the action, buithers is huge, im sure the english will stay up by the sands again, if you camped down the bottom some where youd probly get a decent nights sleep:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nass has always been a complete wild weekend of mayhem, whilst the evenings at Koxx Days have always been a collective group who're up for a bit of a laugh and keeping warm round the fire! Even Fred & Mick joined in last year. Aside from a few exploding cans of peas, I wouldn't call it (that) dangerous!As mentioned, the F1 was used by quite a few people last year.
